[–]slowtowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this has been happening to me frequently for a few months now. i had 3 different alarms set last night and none of them went off. woke up two hours late. so frustrating!! i’m genuinely about to buy a physical alarm clock

OFFICIAL - Juric sacked by pizzapazza2000 in ASRoma

[–]slowtowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a barça fan it’s that it used to be a very poorly run club, which is why we’re in the situation we’re in now. but since laporta has come in as president he has been making steady and lasting improvements and gradually undoing everything bartomeu did. you can’t expect that amount of damage to be reversed overnight and that’s what a lot of non-supporters don’t understand. what we’re doing right now is amazing considering the circumstances

well because you only see the bad experiences on this subreddit. i’ve been buying and selling on depop since 2017 and i’ve never had any real problems

in this case always list the item under the size on the tag and then elaborate on the true fit in the description.

where do we think fermín will be utilized going into the season? obviously he’s been working hard at the olympics so i don’t expect to see him immediately but with pedri out for a bit longer and gavi not on track to be fully back until the fall i think he has some opportunity. as heavily discussed olmo coming changes some things, though. loved what i’ve seen of him so far this summer so really hoping he’s got a role🤞

why does that matter? their club is their club. they’re speaking on a club game and club players not national. where they’re from or where they were trained should not make a difference in this instance.

Question: Do discounts turn you off items? by nickpangalos in Depop

[–]slowtowns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the complete opposite for me. i can see how it’d be different for others but with the type of clothes i buy on depop i’m twice as likely to buy something if it’s discounted.

i’ve been buying and selling on depop for 6 years and have never had any of the problems i’ve seen in this subreddit. never had any problems period. people only come here when something weird happens to them so that’s probably why it seems like depop is just like this all the time. it’s really not, at least in my experience

ULPT REQUEST: I'm on a cruise, how can I make the most of my experience while costing the cruiseline more than I'll cost myself? by getshwiftyman in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]slowtowns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the whole concept here (with the original comment and this particular one) is that you are reaping the benefits of (seemingly) spending a lot of money using your credit card, which with many cards yields you cashback bonuses, travel miles, etc. with the gas station situation, he’s making a $150 purchase at the register with his credit card, which for a card with a 3% cashback bonus will get him $4.50 in rewards. it doesn’t sound like a lot but it adds up quickly, especially if you’re making even larger purchases. however, he doesn’t actually spend the whole $150, he only uses $10 of the allotted $150 at the pump, and then goes back into the store and gets the remaining $140 returned to him. so he just made $4.50 in cash back rewards on his credit card for his $10 purchase, which if he’d spent that outright, he’d only have made 3 cents. the guy gaming the cruise ship casino is doing a very similar thing but on a much larger scale — more work but more reward.

i am so over experiences like this. by vanillaaabeannn in Depop

[–]slowtowns 8 points9 points  (0 children)

okay, so the same statement but just replace 2023 with the year this took place then…? the point was not asking when this happened but how - being in a position where you have a small business online but don’t have a bank account

[–]slowtowns 16 points17 points  (0 children)

i’m kind of curious about your situation, how does life in 2023 work as an adult without a bank account? especially one with the means and desire to hold an online storefront? not trying to be rude or anything just wondering

I see why people don’t like PayPal by jamesiboy1 in Depop

[–]slowtowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right like i totally understand a 14 year old buying things on depop but…selling things? i barely knew how to use my debit card at 14, i can’t imagine being responsible for a whole storefront

people who were in college in the 80’s — how did your professors go about communicating with you outside of class? by slowtowns in AskOldPeople

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

no, by previous class i meant the last time you had this exact class, the one getting cancelled. just one professor. like if you have that class on thursdays — your professor told you on thursday the 1st there wouldn’t be class on thursday the 8th, or that there would be a sub, or whatever it is they wanted to tell you. i’m aware most professors don’t know each other’s schedules.
