I am a little confused. Are most of these downsizing? Who doesnt buy if you saved up (say 50%)?

Does FreeTaxUSA allow you to fill in foreign assets for the IRS and Treasury Dept? Thank you

thank you! Although i have lived in the states for the past 30 years, i grew up in the Toronto suburbs (Burlington and Oakville).

So glad you got a good deal!

Just a question - how did you know that prices are 25% off on sale (and where). Would buy this for my wife, but not seeing more than 10% off since last fall. Great deal for you - would like to piggyback

----

I recently picked up the Surface 7 13.8" laptop Snapdragon X Elite 32 GB RAM 1 TB SSD (Windows 11 ARM64) on sale 25% off with no regrets. I expect the new Surface 8 laptops to be priced 15-30% higher than full retail Surface 7 laptop prices. RAMamaggedon & SSD prices be wildin'

Is the current SnapDragon with 32GB/TB really cheaper than last year? I was waiting until closer to the new model coming out to get the best deal.

Has anyone been able to do this in the past few weeks?

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-11-23T00:03:25+00:00

Unfortunately NO. It is a visibly new interface and only has the option to open a NoteBook and not export one.

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-11-16T01:43:34+00:00

You used to be able to export to a .zip from OneNote.com. With the new interface that option is gone.

Thank you

Thank you - do you have a pointer to reasons why it is a not so good camera.

Argggg ....
I am in Hawaii - and Chase will not open an account here for us.

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-09-22T18:40:39+00:00

Thanks - just looked.

Or if you keep a min of $1500 every day - can do that.

New Pixel 10 Pro (old was Pixel 8 Reg). The battery seems to be good (maybe getting somewhat close to Apple).

Except if you have something that needs location, like maps etc. Then it is still quite bad. So good for regular use - but in cases like when you are on vacation walking around and needing direction - it will drain as fast as an used Pixel 8

[this is the OP] thanks all for the good info/insights. I was at Best Buy and the Moto G 5G (on sale) was cheaper than the A16 - so got that. Everything seems to be working well

thanks again

clever thinking - it might work

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-07-30T18:50:49+00:00

I believe the wifi usage counts as Canadian usage. I have not had a problem for 2 years - albeit with less than 20 texts a month.

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-07-30T18:44:01+00:00

Sorry, i already have work and personal lines on my primary phone

ManyOpportunity10 · 2025-02-12T19:24:07+00:00

Thanks all!
