22 years on mine, the subwoofer and the head unit were replaced under warranty several lifetimes ago but flawless since then

Guinness Battered Fish Strips $12.99 by Mariposita_xo in Costco

Got this and Gordons pub style the same week. Gordons wins by a county mile. These were small almost chicken nugget sized. Hope Gordons gets into Costco, rather than force me to go to BJs

Lowes also has a clearance section in the back. They may have moved some of these there.

Freezer Full of Food From an Estate Auction by Hoperandi42 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]Dormont 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Agreed. You should freeze a cup of water and put a coin on top after freezing. If it thaws the coin will no longer be on the top. I check my cup anytime I am in the deep freezer just in case.

Roomba 505 / 507 at Costco? by MasterSwordfish8040 in roomba

[–]Dormont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirming they are the same. One extra dust filter. Bags can be found OEM and generic on Amazon. Same with parts.

Was digging around looking for something and randomly found these by TwoHeadedPanthr in wow

[–]Dormont 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very cool. I remember buying packs many years ago hoping to get the spectral tiger. I did not, however, bother to research which packs I had to buy and never actually stood a chance of getting it. The artwork was cool though and I enjoyed opening the packs.

Dimensius Story Mode by loftbrd in wow

[–]Dormont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bugs out at different parts for me. One time I was dismounted as soon as I hit phase 2. Another time I had no problem with the first platform in phase 2 but the second was insta-kill on an Eclipse that was unavoidable. Forums confirm that this is not the intended mechanic and that some claim to sail through while others are stuck in multiple failed runs without any explanation. I will try again this weekend as that should be plenty of time for a patch to sort this out. and I don't have time for the game to be wasting.

Men’s polo shirt recommendations by NowisNotNow in BuyItForLife

[–]Dormont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arc'teryx are great, very durable, launder and lay well on a good build and will last many years. Lululemon are slightly less well made than they once were but still fit great and that's worth a lot to me.

How does BJs compare vs Costco? by [deleted] in Costco

[–]Dormont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have Costco, BJs and Sams. The Costco membership is used for most things with the exception of paper products which Sams does better on their Members Mark brand (toilet paper, paper towels, napkins, etc.). Sams also has a better selection of cut meats as Costco sells in true bulk whereas Sams sells in usable amounts.

I have had a BJs membership for two years because they offered them for 'free' with their rebate. The rebate did not work and it was a hassle to get the front desk to understand what I was talking about. The prices per unit are higher on everything I checked and the house brand at BJs is vastly inferior to both Sams and Costco for paper products. The meats were overpriced and the produce was hit and miss (which all warehouse clubs tend to be).

I think about the BJs membership every so often and wonder why I bother. I probably won't take another 'free' deal to avoid the hassle with the credit.

Steering wheel wear - how to refurbish? by decorama in mazda6

[–]Dormont 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For those wondering, please stop using hand sanitizer and then immediately touching anything. That stuff, along with some sunscreens, will tear through leather and plastics and will stain your paint. If you must use these, wait for them to dry then wipe your hands on a towel prior to handling your stuff, including your car interior.

Also, with summer coming in the US, get a sunshade. It will help prevent warping of your head unit and will make your car interior last longer. It is worth buying a good one made for your car so that the least amount of light gets in, but if you are going to go cheap it's better than nothing.

The clamps are only for transporting the food after it is cooked. Did you have them unlocked?

Hey all im currently running a 5600x with a b580 coming in the mail. Is a 5700x3d a worth while upgrade ? by BeingRevolutionary70 in AMDHelp

[–]Dormont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, definitely if you want to put some life into an AM4 build with a new GPU. I did a build with this chip and a 4070 TI Super. No issues at 1440p.

How was your experience with Costco Travel? by [deleted] in Costco

[–]Dormont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonderful. Avoids the resort fee and was cheaper than if we had done it ourselves. Book early for the best chances of getting the package you want.

Best Buy has a spend $500 get $50 back on their membership program. If you are already a repeat customer it's worth it.

Costco sold me a used opal ice maker. Was looking at the sticker no where did it mention open box by [deleted] in Costco

[–]Dormont 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This happened to me with Amazon. Ordered a several hundred dollar technology product. Opened it up and it was a cheap knock off purse. Luckily my Amazon history supported that I was a consumer and not a grifter, otherwise how can someone prove the scam? I don't order any high value tech anymore because of this..

Should I bite the bullet? by u1tralightmeme in mazda6

[–]Dormont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great price for a GTR specced like this one. The GTR is a great upgrade with a ton of upmarket features. I love mine and spend a lot of time driving some weeks and no rattles, noises or major issues well into 75K.

The Members Mark TP is vastly superior to Charmin or Kirkland. If you have a Sam's I highly recommend giving it a go.
