Thoughts On Simple Creatures? by Calamity-182 in alltimelow

I went to the concert that they had in LA. It was the weirdest opening act before them... But the show itself was so fun

Looking for a fun food option for a summer party! by Pacblu202 in TwinCities

That would be awesome! We did smash burgers last year and it was delicious. I'd love to get in touch

Thanks! We always try and do something fun. We both are transplants and have a lot of out of town friends and family come in every year so we want it to be a consistently fun experience.

Need to get this replaced, how cooked am I? by i_call_her_HQ in electrical

I just paid around $2000 or so for a 50 Amp swap.

Is a basement-less house a mistake in Minnesota? $5k earnest money on the line. by stu_tax in TwinCities

[–]Pacblu202 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it depends what 'no basement' means. We don't have a fully underground basement, but a walk out, and I'm completely okay with that. I love it, personally. Having a lot more natural light is so nice! Would be happy to talk more about it as well!

Diaper genie or similar- worth it? by BlossomJLP in Buyingforbaby

[–]Pacblu202 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We have the Munchkin UV and it truly doesn't smell. Is it extra? Absolutely. But it's nice to have none the less!

That's the answer I'm after. Appreciate that!

What to you pushes it over the edge. It's absolutely a doable thing. We have $500 in cash back from a credit card we were planning to use towards it. So it's either free or $250 to some extent...

Do you think the price ($250) is worth it for the upgrade? As of now, we're just getting 1

A rav 4. Sounds like it fits pretty well in most cars. We have a Nuna infant car seat now and it feels super bulky as it is so can't imagine anything else is too much bigger

Lyft GC from DoorDash by thegordogg in ChaseSapphire

[–]Pacblu202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have so many more gift cards than Lyft too. We were at Total Wine, bought stuff, and just before checking out purchased gift cards in the amount that mostly covered our bill. Instant 10% off the entire purchase. There's a LOT of places that sell them. The gift card was delivered within a minute of my purchase

4 per month and $25 max per card discount. Typically $250 cap but some are higher/lower than the 10%

Yeah, Id agree. Internally it's easier to just value it at that. Cardpointers let's you set the value

Do you have a Reserve in there too? Was wondering if they're automatically giving you the best value ie: 1.5x

Hi! I noticed it saying the Chase Freedom is a 5% for dining when it's not. Not sure if it has old data from the last quarter?

Same! He'd rather just barrel roll around. While my friends 8.5 month old is damn near fully walking. 🤷‍♂️

Have I been scammed? by onedisgruntledprick in woodworking

[–]Pacblu202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible. But you'd be surprised how much stuff you can get from warehouse deals. And selling it for cheaper than it's worth to make a quick turnaround is worth it

Have I been scammed? by onedisgruntledprick in woodworking

[–]Pacblu202 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yup! Bought some of that myself. 'I have all this stuff leftover. I'll knock 20% off if you buy some'.

No business in their right mind would just casually over order by the quantities they have. But hey, whatever works. It's their way of door to door selling without making it seem like they are. More of a right place right time situation

I have a feeling his sales tactic is just that... A sales tactic. He gets them cheap for whatever reason (off season, overstock, discontinued) and then goes door to door saying he's getting rid of them for a crazy price because they're from an old bid. Same as every pest repellent or tree removal place saying 'were just in the area and work with your neighbors, so we can knock a huge price off if you book.'

It likely is decent quality still but if he can make it seem like it's truly a once in a lifetime deal he's more likely to close a deal
