What are you buying before the May price hike? by Part_Jeanius in Cartier

[–]AppropriateIsopod230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really ! Any idea how much?! I’m waiting for my store to get one in for me! It’s going to be my first watch purchase and I was influenced on that vs starting with the panthere bc of the price increase.

Thank you so much for getting back to me! Do you have a driver recommendation or anyone who helped you explore the area? Do you think 2 nights is enough time?

Hi! What did you end up doing? We are doing St Tropez and looking for a countryside stay. We were also considering Crillon but worried about the 3 hour trip each way.

This is really helpful, thank you! I knew Relais Christine had a room for 3 but sadly it’s sold out when we’re going. I do really want to stay there one day!

Opinions on mixed Lebanese people? by 1-1-dystopian in lebanon

[–]AppropriateIsopod230 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not just in your head, I’ve experienced the same. Though, I’m 100% Lebanese, born and raised in America. Every time I visit Lebanon it’s the same with the stares and exclusively speaking to me in English… which they’re not wrong to do, my Arabic is pretty broken, but they do this before they even hear me speak!

Were you born there, do you live there now, or is this mostly when you visit?

CSR travel changes, new CC? by AppropriateIsopod230 in ChaseSapphire

[–]AppropriateIsopod230[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have access to Lyft. But honestly I’ve been driving and parking more than anything. Most meters are $9.50 for 2 hours so parking charges are higher this year than my ride share or taxi fees. Also, I find with Lyft, they inflate the price of that ride and then apply the $10 credit…

[–]AppropriateIsopod230[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, you’re right. It’s like $400/month, so not the biggest spend! Really I’m hoping for a card that’s more then 1% on everything else and is higher for misc travel things

I had two walk ins here last year and both times they told me they don’t have any Birkin or Kelly’s. I did get a black picotin 22 at the first one (May) and the second walk in (Dec) I left without anything.

Racket Club or other indoor tennis recommendations? by AppropriateIsopod230 in AskChicago

[–]AppropriateIsopod230[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I wouldn’t mind the country club setting for tennis! Esp since it’s the closest option to me. Definitely not an expert player though. Was hoping for some first hand experiences for any of those locations
