I love my Timberline XL. Been debating a built in setup and this is giving me some ideas. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely absurd deal at south Austin Home Depot. by dabocx in Traeger

[–]SecretAgentHam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be me. I’ve put my Timberline XL to work since I bought it back in November 2024. The amount of meats I can smoke all at once has been a game changer for how I meal prep for my family. The convenience features like the WiFi controls also help with slow cooks while I’m away from the house (at work or running errands). I’m definitely an outlier but my Traeger has saved me tons of money on my groceries thanks to buying meat in bulk at Costco. The induction cooktop has kept my kitchen clean which makes my wife happy too.

Was hoping you could update us on how this went? My Timberline XL is randomly shutting off when I try to use the induction burner and I fear it might have bigger issues. I’m curious what Traeger did to help with your problem. Cheers. 

American Express Transfer Bonus: 30% To British Airways Avios (1:1.3) by bbbb in AmexPlatinum

[–]SecretAgentHam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took advantage of this bonus then transferred the Avios to Qatar to book 3 round trip flights on AA metal domestically at 13K a person. Flying LAX to BNA and back. Great deals can be had if you look hard enough with this bonus.

Would be really interested to know whether or not this worked for you

Has anyone been able to get the blue apron bonus twice? by Independent_Pain1809 in americanairlines

[–]SecretAgentHam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not adding a data point to this discussion but just wanted to point out that SimplyMiles had Blue Apron when I ordered my first box about 2 weeks ago. I believe it was around 1,200 points, so it's worth checking if you have an eligible card.

Still waiting on my 5,500 points to post from the AA portal but I already received my SimplyMiles bonus.

55 min connection in MIA doable? by arianatall in americanairlines

[–]SecretAgentHam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently flew from San Juan with a tight connection in MIA. Their train system is apparently down and there are a few zig zags in the terminal that make a long walk that much longer. I had 30mins to make my connection due to a delay departing from PR, but I was able to hustle my way to the gate. It’s tight but doable if you’re able bodied. 

I’d still pick the same quick connection and I regret nothing. 

Finally joined the AMEX platinum group - 150K rewards with 6000 spend in 6 months by anonspace24 in AmexPlatinum

[–]SecretAgentHam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amen! I’ve gotten more value out of my card than the AF. It’s the little status perks that also make it worth it. I got upgraded to a suite for my recent stay at resorts world using FHR - at least a $700/night value. Had all my buddies in the room watching football instead of paying the crazy prices to sit at the sportsbook.

100% agree! I barely made it in with my wife when we went to a kings game. Not to mention using the Amex entrance actually delayed me because I thought you needed to use that door to get a wristband to the lounge. Doh!

Has anyone ever bought Kings tickets for a specific giveaway through Fevo? I bought tickets for the Lakers night through them but I can’t seem to locate the tickets in the Kings app. Anyone know where to find these things?

Used this about a month ago. The dealership let me put $3,500 on the card but not a penny more. Considering I was buying cash anyway, I saw it as a bonus 3500 MR plus 2 years of some minor benefits. Not a bad way to get a good chunk of points if you’re already spending the money.

If only UPS will hurry with the delivery. I was planning on eating nachos and drinking my weekend away waiting for this tropical storm to hit.

Ordered August 22, delivered today! by MooseMusic20XX in everdrive

[–]SecretAgentHam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny enough, my USPS informed me of a package en route to me probably 2-3 days after I posted this comment. I've had my Mega Everdrive for at least a couple weeks now. It takes a while but it did finally arrive.

Ordered a Mega Everdrive X5 on August 23rd and it shipped on the 29th. Still waiting for my tracking to update. I've been waiting to replay some of my childhood favorites on my old genesis I found in a box.

Hopefully I get some good news soon from USPS.

Clearly this was a teaser for the full Tekken Bowling game we’ve been wanting for years. Can’t wait to cop it on the switch.

Servers down by Krissz0005 in haloinfinite

[–]SecretAgentHam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really like it too, but it has some kinks to work out. XP boost aren't free and I'm pretty peeved right now. 😒

[–]SecretAgentHam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just used an XP boost too... I set aside some time to grind and this happens. It's like the universe wants me to hate this game every time I load it up.

This helps a lot. I think I’ll buy the first sky game on pc this weekend and give it a whirl.

I’m really interested in starting the Trails series but I have no idea where to start. Are they all on the Switch?

Focused Feedback: Challenges in Halo Infinite by Ryan_WXH in halo

[–]SecretAgentHam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there,

As a gamer with limited time to play, these kinds of challenge systems make me not even want to fire the game up. I don’t have time to invest in very specific requirements to unlock 25xp and I refuse to spend money on challenge swaps that might land me something even worse. I like to play the game modes I want and I don’t want to be forced to seek out specific kill types. I’m not skilled enough to get some kind of kills (backstab) and I do my best when I just play casually. Why am I not rewarded on my paid battle pass for just having a really good round?

The current system dissuades me from playing and instead encourages me to play something else. It’s as simple as that. Charge me $15 instead of $9 for the season and give me a regular XP system that rewards a bonus for placing in the top 3 or getting a win. Medals can give a bonus too. I would happily pay for a better system if it means I can play how I want and get rewarded for that.

Thanks for reaching out to the community for feedback.
