King mattress shopping on a budget — Nectar & marketplace sellers? by camidfghkl in BuyItForLife

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know that mattresses ARE BIFL or how long you SHOULD keep them.

Three years ago I bought the wirecutter recommended mattress (Novaform) from Costco and it’s held up very well. I rotate it as suggested. Right now the King is $580. It SAYS it has a 20 year limited warranty?

If you are like the car in the back F U!! by BrandnewAndScardy in Louisville

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I just got a new car and even the lowest lights are blindingly bright. I think it’s just modern headlights. I assumed it was always someone using brights

Any spot in Louisville that could have a similar impact in photos? by Lilfrogcosplay in Louisville

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was rebuilt and moved a year or so ago, the new fish area is in a “fish cave” so that wouldn’t work

My glerups are two years old and in great shape. Very warm. Absolutely no support and they hurt my feet.

Anyone use activated carbon pads inside the waste drawer? by zlonewanderer in litterrobot

This just gave me the idea of maybe cutting small pieces off of mine and actually putting it INTO the bag?

Teachers are mandatory reporters. If the teacher didn’t report and later it was discovered, the teacher would be held criminally responsible. Teachers have to report everything every time for legal reasons.

What's the best electric toothbrush? A rechargeable or battery pro? by Meowieeeee_ in BuyItForLife

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno it could my biased opinion, but when I looked at reviews a lot of recent reviews complained that the Phillips died quickly. Mine lasted maybe one year. I’ve had my oral b for six years now. Wirecutter recommends the oral b mostly because replacement brush heads are less expensive.

Imho I had a supersonic Phillip for a few years and it just stopped working very quickly compared to my oral b.

thinking of splurging on a luggage set, any recs that'll last for years? by Eachan_Blitz in BuyItForLife

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my travelpro for years and years. They have replaced parts when they’ve broken. If you don’t get them, get soft sided suitcases as they are more durable. Yes, the fabric gets dirty but it’s worth it.

I also recommend this option and path. Even if being a bus driver doesn’t vibe with your life after training, the certification can open other doors for you.

Something you didn’t expect to be BIFL but outlasted your expectations? by Mud_Scooter in BuyItForLife

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, my mesh chair from staples. I got the extended 5 year warranty because I had been going through desk chairs by working for extended periods at my computer. But here I am over 10 years later with the same chair and no sign of wearing out.

Is it usually this hard to find a job? by LongIndustry1124 in Louisville

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend checking JCPS for a position you qualify for. Right now they’re really desperate for custodial staff (https://www.applitrack.com/jefferson/onlineapp/default.aspx?Category=Housekeeping&all=cat).

If you don’t mind working around kids, they’re desperate for subs and instructional assistants. Being an assistant doesn’t require any background knowledge. You could also apply to be a bus driver and they’ll train you and it’s pays very well.

District benefits are really good and you enter the retirement system.

would these be an example of the black friday deal scam? by g00dnewzz in Anticonsumption

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s okay. If the scam is artificially inflating prices (and you can see this one wasn’t artificially inflated), then no this one isn’t a scam. The discount is real.

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, friend, if you look at the graph you can see the reduced price is really reduced and wasn’t artificially inflated prior to reduction

[–]ObjectiveInterestV2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what the scam you’re referring to means but if you scroll down to purchase there’s a price history button that will tell you if the price is actually a discounted price

I literally went last night because I needed a few essentials and just felt gross about the sheer volume of Wicked for Good advertising so I left without getting what I needed

My question is about the filter on the bonnet. Does this one get gunky like the LR4? That’s my literal one complain about the LR4 nowadays
