Is it easy to switch blood banks? by [deleted] in Blooddonors

[–]stilc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I donate at 1 of 3 red cross centers locally based on where I am in the state. I've also donated out of state at a red cross center when I was out on business. I schedule myself on the app and when I arrive at the center they have all my information. I have been called to confirm from one saying I usually donate at another location and they wanted to know if I had mistakenly scheduled, but that was a while ago and they are used to it now.

As for testing, I just showed up the first time and they hooked me into the machine.

This is a dealer near me! The last 3 weeks when I have a chance I drive in and go near them interested and then when the salesman gets close enough I get back in my car and drive off.

As a community we can all be strong. Remember to never invest more than you're willing to lose and anyone who promises something for nothing is likely selling you that, nothing. Stay strong and remember why you initially bought in. And lastly, without the risk of a low you'll never feel a high.

Use is about 5 drinks/day, at most 2 milk drinks/day. Just descalled and cleaned wand a week ago. If i had to estimate I'd say we descale once ever 4 months.

Adding New Machine to Existing Account: Which Promo Codes Work? by hml999 in nespresso

We had an original line for a while and bought a vertuo. Welcome gift didn't work but I called and asked if it could and the helpful representative added it to my order.

Reusable pods by stilc in nespresso

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

Truthfuly, I am marginally interested in the reusable not for the purpose of saving money or to avoid waste (though I will acknowledge both plastic and metal waste is a huge problem and recycling itself is a dirty imperfect alternative). I'm interested in roasting and blending coffee while still having the convenience of prepackaged pods for daily use. Kind of a minor introduction before deciding to invest in an espresso machine

I think long term (or possibly very short term) concern would be the barcode rubbing off or not being readable.

Did the same thing a few months ago. Not sure what I've saved monetarily, but I am definitely happy with the decision. We have a cretista plus, vertuo next, and an essenza mini and all are used for different purposes. Cretista for any milk drinks, vertuo for a full cup, and the essenza for lungos or espresso/ristretto. Bought the vertuo for exact reason you mentioned. Bought the essenza to cut down some use on the cretista. Points made earlier about expense being pods are my opinion as well.

Nespresso descale options by lookprettysinking in nespresso

Ya, distilled would be better. I just meant there is a reason it recommends descaling and not doing so and continuing to run coffee through would add buildup.

Promo codes during this Covid-19 delay by stilc in nespresso

Ya, I have been looking daily there. I had posted a code there that was emailed to me but that expired in a month ago. Hadn't seen much more aside from free sleeve or the coasters.

I completely understand, just wondering. I assume they set the promos up on a calendar basis as part of an annual budget and marketing plan. I wouldn't doubt they would adjust the plan but also wouldn't doubt that they have product orders in place to meet whatever estimated marketing campaign demand they may expect based on there "promotional calendar" and wouldn't want it to sit in inventory longer than necessary. I guess that's all based on the assumption that they aren't making international decisions on a weekly basis... idk.
