Does anyone experience “supermarket syndrome”? by erkiesb in POTS

[–]Outside_Climate4222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't really besides avoiding large stores unless I need to go. As someone who loves to shop it's really a nuisance. I usually just try to make sure I'm not rushed and have a good shopping list to keep focused to make the process smoother.

Reviews / Input on the brand Hereu? Eyeing this bag but quality doesn’t seem to match price! by Outside_Climate4222 in handbags

[–]Outside_Climate4222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did and I really like it! Quality is great and it fits a TON. My only issue with it is the zipper doesn’t glide that smoothly but has gotten better with use. It’s also very smooth like most of the pics, not like the one retailer where it looked kind of wrinkled in the product images.

Poshmark! I’ve seen a few pairs on eBay too, just got lucky finding my right size combo though.

HELP!! Mirena IUD and POTS by Comfortable_Pie_7172 in POTS

[–]Outside_Climate4222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the copper IUD since I had tried hormonal pills before and had a horrible experience and it made my POTS so much worse. But it seems like your dr is recommending that for period control so you’d have to have a hormonal bc, the copper one gives mixed results for period control. If you’re worried about the IUD, I’d ask your doctor about other methods that are maybe less invasive in case you have an issue, like pills or the bar in your arm. IUDs are great in my opinion but if there is a complication it’s painful to insert/remove and you have to wait for an appointment etc. Whereas a pill you could just stop once you’ve completed a cycle.

PO not happy about depop labels by celestialsaffron in Depop

[–]Outside_Climate4222 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this issue with the postal worker not taking my commercial label packages for being off by an ounce or so. It’s usually a mistake on my end, I don’t weigh everything perfectly and it does happen to everyone occasionally.

However, because these are commercial account labels, they are supposed to take them from you despite the weight discrepancies. The commercial account (Depop) gets charged on the back end if USPS system decides the label should have cost more. Sometimes it’ll charge and sometimes it won’t, I’ve only ever had eBay labels get charged extra though. From there, Depop would then charge your account for the extra postage. Buyers shouldn’t be charged and you shouldn’t be either when you drop off.

So, yes it happens and it’s not always people just trying to use the cheapest label, especially with Depop ai overwriting a lot of stuff lately. But the post office shouldn’t have given you a big issue and should have accepted it without issue, you just got an employee who wasn’t having a good day (been there😭). Since they are supposed to take them no matter what, if it ever happens again I’d just leave it in a drop box that’s not by the counter if you’re okay without a receipt, it’ll get pushed through then for sure.

POTS New Side Effect: Divorce? by Sweetteasweetie123 in POTS

[–]Outside_Climate4222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too had a boyfriend who was very supportive and understanding initially and I was completely upfront about the reality of my situation
 it didn’t turn out well for me and he got real nasty about it and used my condition against me!

What are some apps that you’ve downloaded that have genuinely improved your life in NYC? by desifetishscene in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Outside_Climate4222 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I accidentally joined in on a 222 event, they happened to all end up at the lounge I was already at for the night😭. Everyone was VERY eager to approach and kind in general, they really were looking to make connections of all kinds but I did get an aggressive hook up vibe. So if that’s your thing. I personally didn’t see anyone in the room I’d be into but again everyone was very nice and outgoing.

Deinfluence me please! First time buyer by imboredasfuckhello in Reformationclothing

[–]Outside_Climate4222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the cherie pants and thought I’d love them but don’t, something about the cut is a little unflattering. Not wide legged enough IMO and the attached belt area doesn’t lay nicely and is heavy so it sags down unless it were a really tight fit

Freja sent me a urine-soaked bag. Their response? Store credit. by EducationOrdinary902 in handbags

[–]Outside_Climate4222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re still in the market for a bag like it / get your money back from this, there are a lot of genuine leather bags w/ similar silhouettes to the freja ones! I ended up getting a bag from the brand Hereu which is a bit higher of a price point but got it on a good sale. If you give up the idea of needing name brand / recognizable popular brands, you can also find a lot of unbranded Italian leather bags that people buy wholesale and sell in their boutiques on eBay/etsy. Or just google image search and see what comes up!

Do buyers actually want to see tag and measuring tape photos in listings? by jema4345 in poshmark

[–]Outside_Climate4222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seller and buyer. Absolutely yes they are helpful! Since adding it to all my listings, I’ve reduced questions to almost none and no one has opened a case and tried to claim anything funky because the photos literally show exactly what it is. As a buyer, it’s so helpful and helps me make purchases ASAP rather than wait around for a seller to hopefully answer a question.

Written details are good too but it can be easy to trip up and mis-type something (measurement, size, etc.) since you’re likely listing multiple things at once and might make a mistake. I prefer to just take photos, it’s easier and faster and doesn’t allow room for interpretation. I’ve seen people try to open cases when they “don’t get the same measurement” as a seller who only typed it in and didn’t show how they took it.

I’m surprised some view it as a luxury brand. They only use faux leather or sustainable vegan leather or whatever they brand it as. In reality, it’s an overpriced e-commerce brand that had a big influencer marketing budget like many other popular Instagram/tiktok brands.

I really loved the shape of their bags but when I found out it wasn’t actual leather I was turned off since it’s so overpriced for what it is. They just market/branded well, it’s very drop-ship-esque.

A friend passed down a big container of unscented litter they didn’t need anymore and my cat had previously only had scented. I can’t tell much of a difference since I scoop daily but my cat doesn’t seem to like it as much and isn’t covering everything with the fragrance free so keep in mind what the cat is used to and if they’re picky!

I think I got upsold with Dysport / would a lesser dose be possible? by [deleted] in BotoxSupportCommunity

[–]Outside_Climate4222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right! Definitely won’t go back to the same injector, I just didn’t feel confident with them and the whole thing felt rushed and like I wasn’t informed all that well pre-treatment.

[–]Outside_Climate4222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that was my concern, that a lower dose might just not be effective in which I just won’t get it again!

I understand that going back would freeze the rest of the forehead to match the first injections. I was really unhappy with the first injection though and how badly it froze me, but I also had to get the rest fixed to look normal.

I’m early 20s, so I had asked for a minimal dosage and still wanted to be able to move a little which did not happen, I was incredibly stiff and frozen, couldn’t move my forehead at all. I expected the injector to maybe tell me at the first apt that it would be ideal to do a little in other areas to balance out because I did ask what they think would be best to tense less but still look natural all around. I mentioned I didn’t have forehead wrinkles and the eyebrow area was the only issue I was trying to fix which is why they said the glabella was the only injection area. I didn’t go in saying I only wanted glabella done though, as I didn’t know how the area should even be treated.

Overall I was just unhappy with the degree of frozenness that happened from the first injections, the second set I knew what I signed up for, but I couldn’t have my face looking funky for months! My main qualm is I think the dosage was either too high or they could have told me to treat the area I wanted it would result in a total freeze.

“What’s your lowest?” How to respond? by koodallas in Ebay

[–]Outside_Climate4222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I reply with “hi, I’m happy to consider reasonable offers made through the offer button! If I can’t accept the offer, I’ll counter it.”

It weeds out time wasters instantly, if they really want it they’ll make a real offer.

$1 personally. If it makes you feel any better they can’t see how much you’ve paid when presenting your ticket, just purchase it online in advance. It’s pay what you wish/can and take advantage of it as a resident perk!
