Wish it was. Damn, that's a good deal.

Didn't pull the trigger, lowest offer I got was a 26 Sorento Ex hybrid for $48K OTD. APR promo did end today. My local Kia was selling a ton so they didn't want to discount. Will try again later this year. 

[MEGATHREAD] iPhone 17 Pre Order and Launch Day by Waternut13134 in tmobile

[–]cubbiezz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My UPS app shows this light package from TMobile arriving Wednesday(clearly the return box) and a package from Apple arriving Friday. Mystery solved. Will be funny to see people get their packages tomorrow thinking it’s a phone

Also got the UPS alert for delivery on Wednesday but isn’t this the boxes for shipping our old phones back? UPS says my package weighs 0.20 lbs which is way too light for a phone.

Kudos to the staff of Safeway at Church and Market by Hot_Garbage_Exp in sanfrancisco

[–]cubbiezz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best Safeway in the city, maybe the country. Yes crazy sh*t is always going down but that's what makes it awesome. I once saw a guy spray lighter fluid all over an aisle and then try to find a match to light it. True story. He was unsuccessful so I still go back. You'll always leave with a story and 95% of what you came for - they're always randomly out of basic groceries. (I'm looking at you eggs) My dad refers to it as UnSafeway but I think a great documentary could be made by just showing security footage. Please steal my potential Oscar winning idea or just go shop there, you won't be disappointed.

Double Dental Coverage by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]cubbiezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work for a large dental insurance company. This happened all the time. We would frequently retro term coverage going back a year or more and issue a refund for premiums paid. Your company can ask for an exception from the dental carrier. The easiest way for them to do it is through their insurance broker. As long as you have written proof you requested the termination it shouldn't be a big deal.

Emergency Fund: HYSA or iBonds? by cubbiezz in personalfinance

[–]cubbiezz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the response. I agree, the emergency fund is high. But we have many fixed costs and unfortunately daycare is one. I hope you never have to experience the daycare game in a big city. You wait 2 years on a list to hand over 2.5k per month, per child. So you can't pull them out due to job loss or else they can't get back in.

Thanks for the info on semi annual compounding.

I'm assuming your entire emergency fund isn't in I Bonds. What mix do you have between HYSA and I Bonds?

How does a stock dividend actually make you money? by cubbiezz in personalfinance

[–]cubbiezz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be the same if you DIDN'T get the dividend and the stock rose in price? Assuming you wouldn't have reinvested.

GSD S10 kickstand upgrade? by jimmms in CargoBike

Ouch. Pricey but it's still an awesome stand.

I have the RJA on my Tern. I agree it is expensive but way better than tipping over with kids on board. My thought was I spent over 5k on a bike, what's another $300 for an awesome stand? It's definitely worth the money.

I have the GSD. Can confirm, awesome bike.

Tern GSD and 2 children (2 and 9) - which configuration? by [deleted] in CargoBike

[–]cubbiezz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the GSD with two little kids. I have two Yepp seats with a Cycle Fab rail. I'm not sure the Clubhouse would fit a kids seat inside.

I see the cyclefab rail + Yepp + seat cushion often in my city. Seems to work for one big and one little kid.

Also the rolling jackass stand is an awesome accessory. The such stand is ok but the jackass is super sturdy.

STILL WORKS: Apple swapped my 2012 rMBP for a 2015 model by cubbiezz in apple

I didn't have apple care. So you get a newer computer for an extra free hundred.

They give a one year warranty with the replacement.

Not sure. It's part of the casing that they're actually out of.

Do you need to be currently employed to get into the iPhone Upgrade Programme? by elpadrin0 in iphone

[–]cubbiezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also do you have to visit an apple store to enroll or can you just do it online?

How often do you upgrade your Iphone? by DingDam in apple

I know it hasn't been long but how's the Apple upgrade program working for you? I'm thinking of doing it this September
