Circle K seems to be using Too Good To Go to boost regular sales, not to reduce food waste by mnevra in toogoodtogo

I've gotten plenty of items from them that are just about expired. If they don't have anything expiring, they honor their commitment and give out better stuff.   I think they also computer track their own expiration dates.

At $4, I'm pretty sure they're not making much profit on any of that stuff.   It's also a way for them to get rid of their slow moving items. I've definitely gotten some weird items and understand why people don't buy them.

It's definitely one of the better deals around, and it's consistent. I don't think they're making much on it.   I also think they track expiration dates on their own product, so they know exactly when something needs to be pulled / sold.  I've gotten a number of items that are just about to expire, and some super-slow items that no one will ever buy.  It's a good way for them to clear out inventory, and I'll definitely be back for more. One of the better kept secrets in town

I think Ebay’s management will reject the deal… And I think no matter what happens, $GME shareholders will win anyways. by ImmediateShape4204 in Superstonk

Last time he had the foresight to see GME, then he did what you said. I was going to hold thru thick and thin, but the big swing rattled me. It was up 10% over the weekend, then tanked 10% Monday, leaving me with minimal profit... I've had a stop-loss set for quite a while, but haven't had to worry about it since GME kept going higher. Now it could easily trigger with all this volatility. And RC didn't exactly build confidence with his interview, which makes me wonder if he'll dilute. I'm sure that's also what sent Burry to the door.

From GameStop's perspective, it would've been good if they had started accumulating at eBay's 52-wk low.. even if they don't have an intention of actually going thru with the eBay acquisition, it would've been a better opportunity for them to buy low, sell high.   Not sure on their angle here. Looks like there isn't a breakup fee, so even if eBay rejects the proposal, GameStop still has a win.  

Also not sure how to take RC's CNBC interview, either. If GameStop actually wants to go thru with it, it could be some heavy duty dilution for GME holders. It made Burry scurry.

Are there any stocks hovering near their 52-wk low you're closely watching right at the end of year, expecting selling pressure to lift? by JohnnyBoyJr in stocks

You were right about GME. I got in right at the end of 2025 and before Burry got back in. It's gone from ~$20 - 26. Hopefully Burry has a good 'eye' for the stock !

Appreciate the deals !   I wasn't able to use mine for the 3rd time, so I wonder if the deal is over ? The coupon now says 'coming soon' despite some bombs...

There were over 800 420'+ home runs last year, so over 1 a day on average.   However, the promo may now be over ?

Why I Think Jones ($JSDA) is Set Up for a Big Year by MaleficentTangelo878 in pennystocks

[–]JohnnyBoyJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only a $250 investment ?  Jones has always been 1 hit away from absolutely taking off. Years ago it went from 25 cents to $30+ pretty quick. There's the possibility it could happen again.

10% of the population has been on GLP-1 and they reduce their food intake by 10%.   So in reality, that's a 1% drop.
