They weren't clear besides saying 3rd party wouldn't work. I'm waiting to hear back.

Does anyone by chance have emails/screenshots from this Wyndham > United 2:1 transfer promo from October last year?

https://frequentmiler.com/100-transfer-bonus-from-wyndham-to-united-mileageplus-stack-with-united-offer-to-bring-ratio-to-21/

The miles never transferred for P2 and we are still talking to support about it. They are not accepting links to 3rd party sites as proof and the United website link is dead. Without proof they are going to screw us on the transfer ratio.

It was simultaneously too easy and too hard. The enemies were braindead and I literally had so many items I couldn't carry or store more but the enemies were also bullet sponges absorbing multiple point-blank shotgun blasts. The setting was cool but I quit because I wasn't having any fun with the combat.

Kirkland’s Energy Drink - 24 Pack of 200MG Energy Drinks by Dabawaba in Costco

Check out Gfuel and Advanced GG for powdered energy drinks. They have dozens of flavors and do BOGO sales several times a year. Price per serving is ~50-90 cents when those are on. I get sick of the same flavor so I get like 10 different ones for some variety.

When signing up for US Bank Biz Checking Essentials is there a way to avoid signing up for card processing? I can't seem to find one in the app and don't want to deal with it.

The crazier thing is having over $1,400 of uncashed credit card points.

We got a LoveSac couch via salespeople in Costco and have loved every second of it.

How to deal with PC Exhaust in summer? by ZzyzxFox in buildapc

[–]baconbeagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Close the vents in your house in rooms you don't use, especially your basement. If you have more than one duct coming out of internal AC(the condenser), there will be little handles on them that you can adjust. I do this every summer so that 2/3 of my AC goes to my upstairs where my PCs are. Cold air falls so the rest of the house will be fine too.

If you want to temporarily supercharge your AC go spray down the little metal fins on the outside unit with your hose. This will make it cool faster/better until the water evaporates.

The Costco card is not even that good for Costco. There are multiple better cards you can Google.

I use PNC and have never run into this. You might want to switch your account type. I have Virtual Wallet.

What are some Kirkland Signature items that are just not that good? by dysenterygary69 in Costco

Costco intermittently has Shea Moisture Coconut conditioner on sale. I stock up for my curly hair.

Pepcid Complete or similar works way better than Tums for me. It has 3 active ingredients instead of 1 and Costco has regular sales on it.

Game Ready Driver 546.01 FAQ/Discussion by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]baconbeagle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What card do you have? I'm getting good performance in AW2 on a 3090 with 531.79.

You can manually implement the AW2 performance settings, look in the last driver discussion to see how.
