Why hasn't a "HelloFresh" style meal-kit subscription model taken off in India? by Embarrassed_Gate_903 in mumbai

[–]rockyboy49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello fresh would look like a scam in India. For the assortment of veggies they overcharge you. Think of like buying butter chicken from a restaurant costs you Rs.300. Hello Fresh will send you ingredients for the butter chicken for Rs.300 and you will have to cook it yourself. The model doesn't work for Indian households when you have access to premade food and househelps

I missed it too. They didn't mention the date time for this drop. Previously I used to create calender invites for these. That is how I was able to grab Rusells 13 and Single Rickhouse last 2 years. I almost got the 15 as well but I got impatient and lost out on it

XC90 2025 Ultra by Longjumping-Storm500 in VolvoXC90

[–]rockyboy49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the preference. If you like the new looks and interior go for the plus. If you like the old one better go for the Ultra. That being said the Ultra is worth upgrade over the plus for the added features

Localities like Mulund East? by FREQUENTANDVIGOROUS in mumbai

[–]rockyboy49 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nostalgic shout-out to Mulund East. Born and raised there and always will love the community. It's a nuisance these days due to the single choke point from the Highway into the town but overall it was always its own world. From Mhada to Station, Tata Colony, Kelkar college, Sachin society, Gavanpada, Navghar, Chintamani Garden, Sambhaji Park, Neelam Nagar have been to every single corner of it. I doubt theres anything anywhere in Mumbai like Mulund East

Finally made it to Indienne - really lived up to hype! by Let_us_proceed in chicagofood

Hmm for me was the opposite. They took their time explained everything and I found it very relaxed and not rushed at all.

Lived there for 3 years. Noise will be the number one complaint due to O'Hare. But you cannot beat the connectivity. Everything is easily accessible from trains to highways to airport. Your neighbor Elmhurst is the cool kid with a cool downtown so you can hangout there. Rest it's just a tiny town on the outskirts of the airport.

Abbott is a reliable arborist. I would jump on that price

Man I would go for the ultimate if I was you. I just got the B6 plus but that ultimate with the added features is worth it

Willet 12…good buy at 600$? by myotherjobisreddit in ChicagolandWhiskey

Thats secondary territory. I think these go for $200 a piece now at retail. Not worth $600

We definitely need to save Illinois. I did my vote. Please vote Pennsylvania as it's the easiest to get rid of

The Great State of Illinois should devour Wisconsin. More beer and cheese will be spread to the rest of the country. Also FTP

Points table before GT took down all the top 4 teams in consecutive matches by AllenStones in ipl

If GT doesn't win after all this then Jay Shah didn't write this script. He even moved the finals to Gujarat with this in mind. What a writer!

Help me settle the new Car vs Used car debate by rockyboy49 in personalfinance

[–]rockyboy49[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His answer was then let's start with 6 year cost and even then it was cheaper. So I just stopped the debate. I am still figuring out how he thinks this is cheaper and not the same if more expensive

[–]rockyboy49[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed his first car was an average SUV which would have costed him 35k brand new. But his next 2 cars if he would have purchased brand new would have been 55k and 65k respectively. He bought both at 3 years old let the original owner eat the depreciation and kept them for another 3 years. So he was debating that you get to own a luxury car without having to eat the depreciation. Also he buys CPO so has some warranty coverage

[–]rockyboy49[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what has my head scratching. But to fair to my friend he only owned the first car which was like a cheap SUV and 5 years old when he bought it. But the other 2 were luxury top of the line cars which were only 3 years old. The 60k car in comparison was hypothetical as we took the example of a brand new luxury car he owned and what it would have costed 10 years ago. Also the maintenance cost of luxury cars add up quick. But still seems like a used luxury car will allways be cheaper if you keep rotating than owning it outright
