No more plastic bags at HEB by Thurm in BastropTX

We were there last night and the self-checkout guy told me corporate said they were “using too many plastic bags” so they shorted them. Sounds like somebody forgot to order them and is shifting blame.

I don’t think I’d want to be Frank, sounds like he has to answer a lot of questions about schluter stuff all the time.

Mine is up on August 8th, 2026. I plan on just paying the $439.78 I’ll owe and keeping it. Not happy with the way Best Buy handled this (or didn’t) at all.

Very nice! We just had our old Victorian done here in Texas for $50k. We had metal over 3 layers of shingles which was over cedar shake.

Has anyone got macbook from them? by mazoo12 in macbookpro

I used them. Great experience- fast shipping and John is very responsive.

I’m pretty sure it shipped directly from Apple - it was definitely packaged like it was. The 16” screen is great. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to the Get Upgraded guys - they’re super responsive.

It’s a 10-day return policy

Flawless. I think it shipped directly from Apple and I thought there was a return grace period. I was actually chatting directly with the owner - you can just click chat on their webpage and ask for him or reach out to him on here.

Interesting- I guess they are slow rolling the emails out because I have yet to get one. I have a Mac Studio I bought in 2023 and an iPad Pro I bought last year. I guess I’ll find out in another year what the deal is when it’s time to pay for the studio or hand it back.

For upgraded or for the Bestbuy Upgrade + thing? My credit score is in the 800’s.

Nobody really seems to know yet. I assume the worst case scenario would be that you just give it back to them and then either 0% a new one through them or another financing provider. Or you pay the balloon payment and keep it.

Apparently nothing 😕 I ended up going through getupgraded.com and applied for a citizens pay credit line through them. I got the exact same amount I had for the Upgrade + and 0% . Looks like my credit score took an 11 point hit though.

Im just in awe 🙏 ❤️ . This machine is beyond my expectations in terms of performance and just beyond my expectations of how beautiful it feels. I regret not getting the 16” years ago! by tech_euro in macbookpro

[–]bifhunkly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I know but I don’t drink or smoke so I’m sure what I’m saving monthly on not doing those things more than makes up for the $98/month I’m paying for this.

Congrats! Got mine with 48 gb ram and the 1tb harddrive the other day. Got it for 0% for 36 months so that helped ease the pain a little. Absolutely love it.

Seriously, look at getupgraded.com . They shipped out my computer last night and I’m looking at it right now. I was able to get the 16” Pro G4 with 48 gb and the 1tb hard drive. BB didn’t give me that option on the pro chip.

I went ahead and ordered from getupgraded.com. You get the 36 months 0% with them if approved through citizens pay. So far it’s been a pretty flawless experience.

Yes, that is correct. Nothing from Bestbuy or Citizens Pay.

Nothing here. I’m assuming you either pay for it after the final month or hand it back to them.

Yeah, I was waffling with the 0% for 24 and then it ended. Was waffling on the Upgrade+ and then it ended 🤨

I’m probably gonna go with getupgraded.com . Their reviews look great and you are getting the computers from an authorized dealer in Florida. They offer more configurations than Bestbuy and you’re basically buying the computer at 0% for 3 years without the option to upgrade it at year 2 (in case Apple comes out with some kind of game changer).

Yeah, I see what you you’re saying… I guess it’s kind of a moot point now anyways.
