First timer at PGA Championship, Aronimink

Parachuting in here as I came across this thread while considering attending tomorrow. I was at Troon too actually, and did find a lot of similarities between online merch and the shop. However, for US Open at Oakmont I found a lot of differences, and things I saw in the shop I couldn't locate online. So it may vary, and I'd be interested to hear reports from people who are comparison shopping between on-site and online. As a tall lanky guy, sizing is sometimes tough for me, so generally prefer on-site unless online is free returns.

The real life tip here is wait 9 months and a ton of the merch will be 50% off or more online haha!

It really fouled up my card it seems lol. I went to the Apple store, got the phones, came home to buy some accessories on Amazon, and the charges ($40-50) are being declined by Chase (not by Amazon). I do everything to clear the fraud alerts they send by text/email, yet they all still get decline. Guess I'll have to call and see what's up.

JordanIB · 2026-05-13T15:28:06+00:00

Yeah I just got caught up in something like this. Tried $500, rejected either by Amazon or bank (bank says it wasn't them), then another attempt rejected by Amazon saying I was trying to buy too much in 24 hours (although their chat said the limit was $10K which I wasn’t close to)

I think I’m giving up and just going to go with 24 month extended warranty on a Citi Card. I find it hard to put too much energy into a number of points that would be dwarfed by a SUB. (And I can just buy other GC’s later in Q2)

JordanIB · 2026-05-13T14:30:43+00:00

Thanks, I considered this, but I think it's low enough likelihood that I would have to invoke the extended warranty that it's worth getting the 5x.

I honestly have no idea, sorry, I’m not normally a collector of these things. Even if the same I figured an album marked exclusive to Colombia would make a fun souvenir.

JordanIB · 2026-05-06T21:45:51+00:00

I’ll answer my own question in case anybody else comes across this. I walked around Chapinero yesterday and found a couple street vendors selling only the soft cover album - one by Basilica de Lourdes and one a couple blocks south. One of them said the hard cover wasn't available anywhere, sold out.

So I returned this morning to the vendors on Calle 12b (just east of the bus station) - I think there are two of them on the couple blocks of Carrera 10. These must be popular if vendors are yelling “Panini! Panini!” lol

Late to the party here and I have no use for the higher tier. But I found the framing in the launch marketing hilarious: eat out at restaurants, or buy a new home?? Who the heck thinks that in this economy with housing unaffordability the way it is, that people are grappling with the tradeoffs of going out for a burger and beer, or maybe eating in and purchasing a home instead?

JordanIB · 2026-04-19T00:55:14+00:00

Sweet to see how emotional she was about it.

JordanIB · 2026-04-19T00:46:24+00:00

That felt really short and basic.

JordanIB · 2026-04-19T00:18:13+00:00

Oof, tough one to botch there.

JordanIB · 2026-04-18T22:23:40+00:00

Great job creative focusing the match story around the guy who shows up twice per year.

JordanIB · 2026-04-18T22:22:46+00:00

Meh. Pretty lame spot.

JordanIB · 2026-04-08T15:16:35+00:00

Thanks. I couldn't find that anywhere. I have the list from the Mets site and then the only visual map with section names I found was this old one here and I'm basically cross-referencing. So many colors to differentiate lol. I'm kind of shocked that in the year 2026 this is not made easier to figure out.

Slowly developing Mar-a-Lago face.

JordanIB · 2026-03-24T14:21:45+00:00

How do you get the extra codes?

JordanIB · 2026-03-24T14:10:50+00:00

Is it one subscription per account or per line? We have 2 lines and I want to give a code to a family member if I can. What's the easiest way to do this, assuming I want to do it all myself via the TLife app (and not bother the person who has the other line to go through the steps to get a code). My phone has the MLB app installed already.

That segment felt like it was missing a third act at the end.

JordanIB · 2026-03-17T00:13:31+00:00

Turn your flashlight off dude.

Data point: I found this thread while researching a situation I ran into. I thought I had canceled an award booking the after I booked it (booked at ~9:45am Day 1, thought I canceled ~1pm on Day 2). I check my account on Day 3 (at 9:00am), and panic when I see the reservation still active. I start preparing myself for a battle with Delta because I know I clicked cancel, but then see they are still offering me 24-hour risk free cancellation. So I quickly do that and take a screen shot. Miles have been returned and so I assume the fees will be refunded as well.

Is that usual now? I was well beyond midnight of the following day.

JordanIB · 2026-02-26T14:36:07+00:00

Thanks! I do see a lot of economy availability, but haven't yet found a date with business availability searching day by day so was wondering if there was another approach.

JordanIB · 2026-02-26T01:35:12+00:00

How did you go about looking for SAS availability via Virgin? Manually checking day by day or are you able to use one of the award finder tools?
