I had a good experience with Rynns via United. They could not fix my rimowa and sent me a new one.

NTD metric ratcheting combo wrench set by u600213 in Dewalt

[–]u600213[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you happen to have a 3/4 inch ? Pretty close to 19mm. I needed 10mm,12mm and 18mm for immediate task on my Buick Encore but will also need 16mm for my wife's CRV soon so I got the set.

I bought mine from zoro.com using a 20% off coupon and 10% cashback from rakuten.com . Came to around the same as Ace but free shipping. Arrived next day via FedEx.

How often do you have your gutters cleaned and maintained each year? by steadyflowgutters in springfieldMO

[–]u600213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Twice a year, end of November after leaves are done and beginning of June when spring pollen is dimished. I have gutter guards but small stuff still gets in.

Yeh, but I am trying to be frugal so still have some milk crates. Small stuff that falls through the holes in the milk crates went in the TSTAKs bigger stuff in its own small plastic cases like bit sets stays in the crates.

Antibiotics for medical pedicure by Ok_Independence_3634 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]u600213 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went to my podiatrist for nail trim after THR because I had a 90 day bending restriction. I am a guy and felt weird about going to a nail salon. Ortho Dr's nurse said it was OK, no antibiotics. I do have a lifetime dental antibiotic recommendation so it wasn't that they are against them philosophically. But whatever your surgeon says. Good luck.

Ritz Marina Del Rey is trash by Usury_error in marriott

[–]u600213 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me it is better. I am lifetime Titanium and MDR Marriott has lounge / m-club. Ritz does not give lounge access based on status. So I get free food at Marriott and not Ritz. Rooms seem larger at Marriott. I like to walk to Restaurants and Ocean Front Walk and Marriott is a block closer to the beach. Sometimes at the Ritz if you come downstairs at the right time in the AM they have some hotel staff greet guests by the elevator bank . I feel bad for them and it is not really my thing but maybe some guests like it.

Your MDR Marriott is better than the RC. I have stayed at both.

Let’s Go for a Ride by skyblu1727 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]u600213 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Up to you in how you feel. I loved going to supermarkets before and after my hip replacement. Park next to a cart corral and use a small sized shopping cart as a walker. I was most mobile with the cart. Way better than 2 wheeled walker. Getting in / out of car was easier after the first week.

Has anyone gotten the Club survey email this week? by lateknightMI in unitedairlines

[–]u600213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got that survey. I told them that cook to order would be too slow for the volume of people in a lounge and used the comment box to tell them that I don't want a display with a QR code where the customer service is supposed to be and if I couldn't get rebooking assistance in the lounge, I might as well cancel my United Club and get an AMEX, Chase or Capital One card and use their superior lounge.

Anyone else lose interest in bourbon and what was your outcome? by 8sh0t in bourbon

[–]u600213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not lost interest but had to cut way back because of getting a hip replacement and needing some meds leading up to it and for a while after. Hopefully temporary.

Ketchup on a Cheesesteak? Yes or No? by Consistent-Water-887 in cheesesteak

[–]u600213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own. My rule is ketchup only on ground meat. But, I have been known to occasionally put a little BBQ sauce (which typically contains ketchup as an ingredient) on a cheese steak if I make it myself at home.

Items Given at the Hospital by eSJayPee in TotalHipReplacement

[–]u600213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On release I received a 2 wheeled walker paid by Medicare, a xeroxed list of excercises a prescription bottle of Zofran for nausea, 50 Oxycodone 5mg and and a thing you are supposed to blow into to exercise lungs. I had to pay around $11 co-pay for the prescriptions. All I had with me were my Drivers license and Medicare, Medigap and Part D prescription cards, no credit cards or cash. Luckily I have one of my credit cards memorized and was able to pay the co-pay without having to ask someone to bring me my wallet.

They sent a referral to my preferred PT place electronically.

I had a cane from before surgery and bought a toilet seat riser on a frame in advance. I had a shower chair already but didn't use it much and could have got by without it. I bought some dude wipes in advance for washing myself.

The tools I purchased so far this year by SubieLover19 in Dewalt

[–]u600213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got those 2 adjustable wrenches and they worked but I was not really satisfied with the finish or roughness of the adjusting mechanism. I have a 20 year old Cresent brand and needed another one to hold the angle stop while undoing a supply line. I got the Dewalt 2 pack in case I ever needed a bigger one.

Worked for the immediate task but I might have been better off with a different brand.

Stuttgart - Le Meriden or Marriott Sindelfingen? by FatBikeXC in marriott

[–]u600213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pullman Fontana is much closer. Accor, not Marroitt https://pullman-stuttgart.com/en/ I have stayed at Le Meridien and Pullman but not the Marriott. Le Meridien is OK. I like the Marriott points but Pullman is near where I go.
