I keep mine alive for the same reason. This got me to post there for the first time since 2 or 3 years

There are a few brands that make it right. Also it needs to be grinded at the moment

My company gave me a $25 visa card a while ago and by mistake I only used $24.50. that was actually the best ever because I used that card to sign up for shit like this without worrying. It even helped me get out of AMC stubs or whatever it was called during COVID when they claimed that the theaters were safe but there weren't even any new movies, they didn't let me cancel easily so I switched the payment method to that card and when they failed to collect the payment they cancelled the subscription

Unfortunately it expired a couple of months ago but I've been thinking on getting another card and do the same

I get 30 days of PTO + 12 holidays at my job in the US. Of course I know it's not normal, none of my friends get even close to that but most of them get 15-20 days of PTO + 10-15 holidays.

Edit: some typos and missing words (don't drink and post...)

I made one for my dad when he retired a few years ago. I got some NES, Genesis and SNES controllers from Aliexpress and 3D printed a case to make it look like a small NES. He played with it a lot until my nieces started playing videogames and now they play on my old wii

I used honey for a while and it was working great for me with "exclusive" coupons and Cashback and then one time I bough a cellphone that was supposed to have $250 cashback. I did all the necessary steps, read the t&c, took screenshots of the offer and made the purchase. I never got the transaction to appear on their website. Sending emails it trying to contact them was futile (I even made an automatic script to send an email everyday to follow up). Fuck PayPal

My wife had a minor surgery a few years ago and the hospital told me that the bill would take a while to arrive because they need to "fight" with the insurance but they assured me that everything was backed up by the doctors.

When the first bill (from the insurance) a few items were denied like the extra hour of hospital bed because she wasn't feeling well after the anesthesia. The hospital called me and told me not to worry and they would ask for the doctor who denied it and since it wasn't a doctor they would approve it after a few weeks

At the end it was still expensive but nothing was denied

My Walmart has them next to the pharmacy, 2 or 3 aisles away from the toothpaste

Meijer has them on the same aisle as the deodorant

Did you check DHL? I had to sent papers recently and DHL was a lot cheaper and it was the same delivery timing

I love Hawaiian pizza, not my absolute favorite but I order it quite often

Me and my wife remember that when we were kids Hawaiian pizza usually had cherry as well as pineapple but it suddenly disappeared, was that common previously it was that something from our hometown?
