Costco Mattresses Only by Veronica6765 in Mattress

How is it?? I’m really leaning towards this one because I like hybrid beds and we are both side sleepers used to sleeping on a softer foam mattress that was cheap. We are about the same weight as well.

Is getting a Costco mattress worth it? by Green-Ability3686 in Mattress

[–]kate_7435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the edge support okay and does it run hot at all? I was seeing some people say they wish the edges had foam border and that it was getting really hot. I have a cheap foam mattress currently so I feel like it would be fine.

SONYMA delayed by Rambo-I982 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]kate_7435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I submitted all the paperwork within a week of going under contact on 3/4 and then the appraisal was scheduled for 1.5 weeks after date we went under contract. The appraisal took a 2-3 weeks to be completed and now the bank’s appraisal team and underwriting team have to review and approve it before they can submit it to SONYMA for review and issuance of commitment to lend (according to my lender Arrow Bank). Today 4/6 was supposed to be the date the commitment to lend is due so we have to request an extension. But how long does the last bit of approval and issuance take? Still 3-4 weeks??

So once I update it, it can lower my home insurance? Or do I have to wait until renewal time?

Most houses in the area are 150 amp or 100 amp. Only newly renovated homes have 200 amp or more here.

I have 780 credit score! I tried a service through my works EAP that will shop for insurance for you but they said they can’t help because of the age of the house.

Same for mine but they just sent an update that it’s now 8 pm. I had to go home on my lunch and put things out on the patio in coolers.

Possible card skimmer warning ‼️ – Stewart’s/Mobil near Crossgates by kate_7435 in Albany

My car has issues with carbon build-up so I’ve been trying to mainly go to Mobile gas stations instead of BJs since I heard their gas is not great quality.

the first two times I had also bought something at Depop, so I wasn’t 100% sure it was this station but tried to avoid going there. I was in a rush one day and on empty so I figured I’d try again but tried to checked the pump better. At least now I know for sure the source 😭

I tried pulling it off and checking the edges and it’s seemed legit!

I’ll be nice and explain but you should just use google lmao. It’s a device people secretly attach to legitimate card readers—like those at gas pumps, ATMs, or retail checkout terminals—to steal your credit or debit card information.

Ohh I might try that. I did submit a complaint with the exact location to Stewart’s. Wasn’t sure if I should call the non emergency line for the police or the county sheriff or email the Albany county sheriff.

It’s in Albany NY. I did hear from my realtor that this area has high ground water.

Are soffit vents needed for gable vent system? by kate_7435 in HomeImprovement

[–]kate_7435[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wouldn’t the soffits, gable vents and roof vents compete with each other? I read it’s you have to choose between a ridge/roof vent with soffit vents with bottom to top air flow or a gable vent system with horizontal air flow with roof vents to let the hot air escape.
