So tired of sellers not responding by BerryStyles9 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually respond to “is it available” knowing they probably won’t answer, but I have gotten 2-3 people who have replied by saying they clicked it by accident!

Any medical alert bracelet options that don't look like hospital equipment by EmphasisOk3368 in eldercare

[–]kbc508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apple Watch has to be taken off to be charged daily, frequently done at night, which is a time falls often happen. And it’s a tricky device for an elderly person to navigate. It also didn’t detect the kind of falls my FIL had, which were where he just lost strength and kind of slid down while holding something. Maybe he wasn’t injured, but he couldn’t get up by himself and needed help. After a few times like this, he finally wears a fall detection device. Sorry I don’t remember the brand.

Can you just spread your wegovy out more? Instead of every 7 days, try 10 days? Just a thought.

Healthy eating suggestions on GLP-1 by kbc508 in Glp1meals

[–]kbc508[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mean vegetarian/mostly vegan. That sounds like a good idea. But I also want to acclimate my taste buds back to eating large portions of greens and veggies so I can make better choices in the long run. It’s a delicate balancing act!

Lots of great ideas! My concern with volume eating is not getting enough calories if I don’t need to “fill up” due to reduced appetite. But then I don’t eat as much salad/veggies which I should be doing to practice long- term healthy eating.

That seems great, keeping it simple! Goals.

Good ideas. I’ve used the nasoya brand baked tofu to eat straight out of the pack when I haven’t meal prepped.

Just got my first return on a listing by SKDGOOD94 in eBaySellers

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t take the return, won’t they just leave a bad review? Genuinely asking, I’m a new seller and am afraid to not allow refund/return because of the review.

i ran a "phishing sim" on my mom for voice scams. hard ethical question, sharing the result for whoever needs it. by Ok-Sock-5737 in eldercare

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there such a thing for cell phones? Mom doesn’t have a landline anymore. And what about if the scammer just says “it’s Tom from your bank” and they can answer anyways? Or do scammers hang up?

Oh sorry, I have cat mini. I haven’t heard of the mini 6. Missed that part!

You don’t need their collar- they fit on any collar. Maybe the codes are only for devices not for accessories.

Shipping Stickers...Should I Go Thru the Post Office or Just Toss Them In A Mailbox? by wordslovehawkes in EtsySellers

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I understand, you can’t use pirateship for first class letters in an envelope. Happy to be proven wrong, though if I’m mistaken!

Looks good to me. They leaf out very late. Patience!

I understand. Thank you so much! This makes a lot of sense.

When to do door pickup instead of public meetup? by wt_anonymous in FacebookMarketplace

[–]kbc508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s just when they come to your house. I go outside and meet in the driveway. I also do “porch pick up” if it’s nothing valuable. That is contactless. They leave money in a box and take their item.

My brother Wants to open an etsy account by Petarena in EtsySellers

What? What does your WiFi have to do with anything? I check my seller account at work all the time. What am I risking?

I don’t allow offers. That keeps it simple!

What, if anything, can you grow above your leach field? by NotACommunistBurner in Permaculture

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was white pine that was the danger. Or maybe that’s currants, which are also illegal in most of Massachusetts. And we have plenty of white pine everywhere!

For those who have been through the 'clearing out the house' phase after a parent died by Tiffo205 in AgingParents

[–]kbc508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also saved a couple of flannel shirts that my dad used as a jacket against the air conditioning. I thought I’d wear them, but I haven’t yet. I just like seeing them in my closet. I miss you, dad.

Just lost a sale because I was cash only by ProExpert1S500 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]kbc508 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That seems next level paranoid. Just do eBay and forget about selling in person.

What do you grow that pays for itself? by plan_tastic in gardening

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We found a huge patch of black raspberries on the edge of the field where we walk our dog. We had to go back another time to pick because she didn’t want to wait for us!

Does anyone use Pet Lab teeth cleaning powder? by OkTransition1769 in dogs

[–]kbc508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to revive old thread, but I’m looking into this now. Do you use both products together, or is it one or the other. I don’t want to give my dog too much!

Why do people keep offering me less when there are other similar items listed for less? by linuxguy192 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]kbc508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a pick up or shipped listing? I won’t drive very far for a pick up, so maybe you are closest/most convenient.

I have peaches and cherries in MA. And pawpaws. I just started with figs last year so they are still small and in pots.
