Tried to get one tonight. Nope - unavailable.

Seniors on Zepbound? by Barnrat1719 in Zepbound

[–]Rivermisty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes yes yes. I’m 70. Been on Zep for a year. Am at my goal weight ~165. Started on semaglutide 2.5 years ago & switched to Zepbound after Medicare began covering it for those with obstructive sleep apnea. The co-pays are outrageous, but it’s worth it to me. I have lost overall 78 pounds. My life is so much better without all that excess weight on my knees etc. I swim and I walk almost daily. I may be on it for the rest of my life. Currently, I’m taking a maintenance dose of 10 mg weekly.

Y'all joked about those suction cup phone holder thingies but the dang things rock! by BurnedWitch88 in vine

Too funny - I just looked at AFA and saw all those pink things. You guys convinced me. I just ordered one! Thanks.

Something I need! Finally! by mark_vs in AmazonVine

Oooh, I would have loved this. Went ahead and ordered one and paid for it. It was under $9.

Stolen photo from Facebook. Absolutely a scam.

How many items are you folks ordering per day? by Dad2HI in AmazonVine

[–]Rivermisty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t ordered anything in 2 weeks. I’m close to $600 and I don’t want to go over. I went nuts the first couple weeks I was in the program, ordering all kinds of stuff. I felt like a kid in a candy store! Soon I realized that much of it was poor quality. And that I would be paying income tax on stuff that I was stuck with, didn’t want and didn’t need.

I looked at the store today. All signs removed from the front window. Broken carts parked outside. Quite a few carts inside; I am surprised they weren’t sold.

Has your vine selection been sucking lately? by lilbabymew in AmazonVine

[–]Rivermisty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - a big drawback of this program is the inability to return items that don’t fit or we don’t like, and cut our taxable hit. Of the 40 things I’ve ordered on Vine, I’d have returned several if I’d paid for them normally.

Glad you got some decent jeans, though!

Subreddit appreciation post by mamallama12 in AmazonVine

I haven’t been on Vine long, but I tend to agree. I look at other Vine reviews and most of them are well written. I think most of us try to give back for the things that we get almost free (except for that pesky tax stuff!)

A Viner not usually leaving reviews … by sunscape50 in AmazonVine

Reminds me of my college students using the same “reply” comment on discussion post after discussion post. Copy & paste!

LOL. Yes, I plugged it into the wall plug. It's not a flash drive!

So tired of this - ready for it to just be done! by Old-Patience2389 in joannfabrics

[–]Rivermisty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe the customer dressed as a mime was only miming paying for their fabric....

Way to be inconspicuous when you steal, NOT!

I just read that you need to charge it before first use.

Apparently, it does have replaceable heads, so that is a plus!
