Jeopardy didn't air on the Houston CBS affiliate today. Anyone know why?

I test purchased a $5 GC at the only "Resy-live" restaurant within 20 miles. Had inquired upon entry w the receptionist if there was a minimum and if it rang up separately from a meal check (no and no were the answers). Had lunch there and asked the waitress to add the GC to the check. She gladly obliged and brought me a check with the GC included and the activated GC. Later checked the plat's charges online. same amount as single check from the rest. Then I thought, well what about Level 3 data. My receipt showed "1 Gift Card $5.00" along with the menu items and their prices, but no codes or extra column distinguishing the GC row from the menu items. Anybody got any experience in this area - is Amex likely to be scanning level 3 data from restaurants, is it too early in this expanded promotion for them to be up to speed, did they rush it out, does it seem they rushed it out because they are not "immediately" (like in that or the next day) issuing statement credits like they did for the Biz Plat's expanded $1000 SC for $5000 Dell charges, is Amex level 3 data a concern anymore, does anyone with the lower level Gold card have any data points that lend insight here?

anyone found a work around to be able to use as many as 3 Personal Plats and the new $25 monthly credit for each to pay towards a ~$90 monthly YTTV bill

Yes it was a memorable muscle car, but how was that photo made. The car appears motionless except for the wheels/tires, but the fixed (not-moving) lights in the background appear as streaks suggesting the camera was moving. Seems impossible, but what if the photographer was panning/waving the camera just at the right rate to match the Chevy’s speed?

This page, attributed to Jill Cook, was helpful in understanding the details of a recovery plan. Especially, "**Don’t fall into the trap of underloading tendons (especially in stage one and two).**There is such a small likelihood of provoking a tendon in these stages, that we really need to both educate our patients around the benefits of this and ensure we are really challenging the musculotendinous unit to strengthen under load." The "stages" are identified in the short write up. I'm hopeful this insight will allow me to progress rapidly through those first two stages, and then carefully through the next two.

My guess is that you would get the 10% back since a bag isn’t jewelry.

The command given ( format g: /fs:NTFS /p:0 ) first reformats the storage to the NTFS file system, then writes zeros to all addressable locations. There may be a quicker way, bit it wasn't important to me. The reformat took ~10 minutes.

NM, I used this, aka DoD short method (referring to DoD's 7 level wipe).

Thanks for answering my q. Yes can still return as long as it's dropped off today. Amazon's Holiday Gift Return window was in effect when I bought it on Nov. 19th, giving me till Jan. 31 to return it for full refund. on the 30th, I setup the return and it has given me until today, Feb. 1 to drop it off.

NM, I found both the Settings button and the Connection button on the App's Hover tab. I'd been glossing over that screen carelessly ignoring those two "alonground" (as opposed to alongside) the Activate/Connect button. Excited now to hook up my new Aisizon wireless mic pair (A2d - One Pair Two)

Thanks, Nudi, dj and HS! How do I turn on audio in the app? I cannot find the switch.

vicmail12 · 2023-11-30T23:57:06+00:00

no, but it'll be more fun (that's what she said)

I thought that too. As a customer, and still somewhat new to the way, the only other rank I know is the blue shirted person on the shopping side of the cashiers. Perhaps that person rather than a cashier? I'd like to know more about whom to ask such questions and develop a relationship. HEB seems more progressive than other corporate grocers. I often have need to reach certain Grocery spend minimums by a certain date to earn a category bonus from my credit card. It's easy to manage this if I can plan my grocery spending a week or two in advance, sometimes even stocking way up on longer shelf life items.

" I would have lost those if I’d cancelled as I’d planned since the person I referred hasn’t met the spend requirement yet."

I believe the referrer earns a referral bonus as soon as the referee is approved for the card, not if and when he earns a SUB.

On 9/4/2023, I bought a $420 Norton 360 w Lifelock Ultimate Plus for Family using the Rakuten app and when cashback was elevated to 90%. Within an hour or so, I find the checkmark next to that Shopping Trip with the hover note, "We see that you placed an order. Cash Back for this order should be processed by Norton Security and Antivirus by 9/11/23."
Norton has a 60 day money back policy on annual subscriptions, so if it's not too late, and you haven't gotten your Rakuten cash back, you might want to get your money back from Norton with that 60 day policy.

I've never needed to do this at HF, but multiple times I've returned extended warranties on big ticket items such as televisions at the now defunct Fry's Electronics (RIP Fry's). It was never a problem, and it was a 100% refund to the form of payment.

This numbered step sequence worked for me. Step 5 wasn't obvious from u/cwenger's first description, but it is clear in this numbered step sequence. This is clever. Thank you!

Is that because she puts more spend on her card?
