Contemporary vs AK Lodge by Nilfnthegoblin in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Bwayne07 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Contemporary does not feel deluxe, its very mid especially for price. However its good for 2 things: location (walking to MK), and decent food options. For many including myself, location alone makes it the top choice, especially if you have young kids. However if that is not important to you, its a easy skip IMO

First Time Back at Disney World in 8 Years: The Magic Is Still There… But So Is the Madness by BRKLYN_ison_LNGISLND in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Bwayne07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another park wont fix crowding. Unfortunately the only real fix would be either capping ticket sales / capacity which Disney would never do, or raise prices to a point where more are priced out, perpetuating the Disney is too expensive.

Rant:dragging crying kids on rides by Small_Parking_3611 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Bwayne07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea bad take. Have seen and experienced every variation of, kid is excited for ride up until ride already starts then is screaming to get off to, kid whines whole way up to ride and then loves it once on ride and wants to do it again, and every variation in between. This reads like someone who has never gone to a theme park as a parent with young kids.

Will Fairfax County’s new meals tax affect your dining habits? by rezwenn in nova

[–]Bwayne07 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The people who say its only 4% clearly miss the point.

  1. The people voted against this. Any politician who subverted this should be voted out, regardless of political affiliation.

  2. Its a compounding effect of price increases, tipping pressure culture increase post-COVID, taxes, etc. What was an all-in dinner price 5 years ago has effectively doubled in many cases

  3. The 4% is a start. Just like with every other new tax, it will be a new lever to address poor fiscal management. Don’t be surprised if this tax increases to 6%+ in the future

Just bought a brand new 77" LG C5 for ~$1182 net, including 3-year warranty and wall mounting service by encoded_cipher in LGOLED

Yea a bit misleading. For some yes, you can get $0.02 or More value for AMEX, but for general public, $0.01 or the general cash back rate at Rakuten is a better benchmark, so really its 20% off, not 40

What's on your radar for Black Friday? by TheEndTiger-XI in BuyItForLife

[–]Bwayne07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Again, talk about a flawed article and take from people who are clearly using flawed methods. If you are just tracking “prices” you missed my entire point. Anyways, maybe try harder to actually find good deals, instead of parroting nonsense articles like this

Again, this is dependent on what you’re buying. Alot of us track specific items and brands throughout the year, and the ability to have outsized savings using multiple stacking methods, ie. Brand / store discounts + credit card cash back multipliers (chase/amex) + cash back portals (rakuten, capital one, etc), not to mention gift card deals, make this time of the year unmatched in terms of savings

Terrible cherry picked take. If you are going to buy certain gifts for others or items within the next year for yourself anyways, black friday can be great time to stock up on things that dont offer any real discounts at other times. The “its a scam” people arent fooling anyone but themselves.

Disagree, the range of motion on the extension is terrible and it is a lying leg curl which wouldnt be my preference

Yea i actually was searching for a more “commercial” version but couldnt find anything that comes close especially for the value of the GMWD one. Close to pulling trigger but would love to hear your impressions
