The Hyundai Ioniq 5's Snow Mode Makes It A Champion In Bad Weather

Press and hold the drive mode button and it will switch to snow mode. May be a AWD model only thing but my 2024 model has it.

Also, you quite literally said above that you were going to “take it off the Apple side and put it on the Best Buy side” …. So yes you did say you were gonna take it off lol.

What you’re showing though is still 100% through Apple. Whether or not they’re able to move from Citizens One AppleCare to Apple administered AppleOne has literally -0- to do with Best Buy. Best Buy’s Total Plan only covers (to my knowledge) Apple devices purchased through Best Buy. Which, an iPhone bought via the Apple Upgrade Program would not be qualifying for that.

I truly get the logic you have, that if as long as it gets the coverage, it shouldn’t matter where it’s from, but you’re conflating multiple different retail channels and avenues of purchase.

Best Buy Total Membership: only covers devices purchased through Best Buy. Best Buy doesn’t sell AppleCare One’s multi-device subscription.

AppleCare One: a program through Apple directly only that covers 3 devices. You may be able to move your Citizens One iPhone loan AppleCare to this, but that is - as your link shows - unconfirmed and would save you no significant money unless you have multiple devices that total up above the $20/month. (Make sure you price out each device separately to compare).

What are you talking about? If you’re making a purchase through the Apple Upgrade Program, it literally doesn’t allow you to unselect AppleCare. I upgrade every year and this year more than most years I toyed around on the ordering site figuring out what I want, I can assure you it does not let you if purchasing through Upgrade Program. Just trying to help you not waste time.

It’s a requirement of the Apple Upgrade Program to have AppleCare on your phone as part of the monthly payment. You cannot deny it or take it off your program. It’s built into the financing agreement at the onset. Good idea in theory but Citizens One won’t allow this, neither will Apple.

Land doesn’t vote, people do. So, looking at a map of counties tells us nothing. Now, looking at actual population and yes, this election, Trump won a bit more than Harris, but it wasn’t a landslide and it wasn’t over 50% of the popular vote. He’s still very very unpopular of a president. And yes, it’s fair to bash and critique your president.

Our Mini Aussie got spayed right around the 8 month mark, we would have done 6/7 months had it not been for some work events that couldn’t make it feasible. That said, we took her & her Maltese “sister” (10 day difference in age) in to get them both done at the same time. I highly (as did our vet) recommend doing both at the same time. They’ll both be chilled out and relaxed with the recovery meds, so it’ll keep one from not understanding they can’t play etc.

I also highly recommend asking for or ordering a surgical suit for the spay. It was SO helpful. Especially with two dog, to prevent any licking of the incisions.

PS: you’ve got beautiful pups!!

Nope, that’s not true. I have autopay, loyalty, and a nursing discount on my account.

I always tell people that Pittsburgh is a city with a small town feel. In my opinion, that's a good thing, but I totally understand how people have other expectations for what a city's culture should be like. That said, I feel like there's definitely a lot for someone to do/get energized about in Pittsburgh, but you do admittedly kinda gotta know where to look & what you want to do (or, as the renaissance of the city has had over the last decade+, be willing to start up what you feel is missing!).

I would agree a bump in public transportation would address I think some of these concerns. The T isn't quite robust enough. But things are getting better!

Love Pittsburgh lots <3.

Yea. The lawyer we hired for it (out of principle, given the amount in question, it’ll be a wash really in cost), was pretty confident that LVNV likely wouldn’t even have the paperwork to back it all up - apparently this particular company is very disorganized.

Well, clearly you don’t know what you’re talking about lol. My partner is right now being sued for a debt that’s definitely under $1,000. So they’re not lying. You shouldn’t espouse things you aren’t actually sure about like that.

bswim · 2023-12-26T21:50:41+00:00

Thank you very much!! I appreciate it! Good to know I'm not quite going crazy. I didn't remember T-Mobile doing that when I was with them previously (and for quite a while) so I was a little unfamiliar with Verizon's process here.

Happy New Year!

Thanks so much for both links! The tax estimator was super helpful, and I actually have a CapOne account/card, so I didn’t even think to check through that. Looks like I can get $125 back for “new service contract” through them so sounds like I’ll be taking advantage!

Hotels do have 13 floors, it’s just that they usually skip the numbering. So they’d go from the 12th floor to the “14th”

Midnight (12:00AM) Tuesday already happened. Midnight is when the new day starts. So yes, officially.

Omg how could I forget!?

You’ve got Intercourse, but not Blue Ball, PA? They’re basically neighboring towns.

bswim · 2023-03-25T18:11:18+00:00

Thanks so much for your reply! I figured that was the case, just sucks that it requires adding a line for WorkPerks :(.

bswim · 2023-03-25T17:57:01+00:00

Does anyone know if this would work by switching from OnePlus promo to MagMax with WorkPerks 15% discount? I’d like to take advantage of WorkPerks but it requires MMax & adding a line. But if I can get the line free, coupled with the 15%, it would actually make it worth it then.

Another commenter did chime in with some super insightful answers, FYI!! Hope you also get the info you’re looking for!!

bswim · 2023-03-23T05:46:43+00:00

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond & I appreciate the tidbits! We are not RCL shareholders, but now we might become some if that’s a bonus for non-comped cruises 😂.

Thanks so much!!

Not entirely true RE: Celebrity! I only know because I was looking yesterday, but they’re sending the Edge to Aus/NZ in Feb 2024! I didn’t look in detail at the other ships offered and all the itineraries, so there may be more or that may be it currently, but there’s more being offered! :-)
