It was a lovely situation where they were treated unfairly. Probably racist. Ok cool, let's carry on. I didn't get a letter in the mail but an email for my cash back reward. My printer isn't working.

Chinatown posted:Dealerships are full of idiots who say stuff like this. Ignore it. Also, unless you are under warranty, do not under and circumstance take your car to a dealership for repairs/oil/tire changes. A dealership is a sales organization, not a service organization. It's in their best interest to sell you new stuff, not maintain your old stuff. Their job is to do whatever they can to keep you buying, including deliberately break things if they think they can get away with it. An elderly family friend complained that every time her car went to the dealer for regular service, she was constantly buying new fluids, to the point that she believed she had a leak "or something". The car had never been anywhere but the dealer since her late husband had bought it new a few years prior. It had less than 100,000 miles on it. Her grandson and I decided to check what we could find in the Haynes manual ourselves before the car went in for service and found nothing low. We told her we had checked everything and if the dealer found anything low he was lying to her. She goes in, they make her wait around an hour while they "check everything" and then come back telling her that her brake fluid is very low and she needs to have it changed and bled, which will take two hours of service and $50 of fluid. She called him a liar and demanded to leave. They told her it was unsafe to let her drive away and they would have to call the police on her, and she would be arrested for driving an unsafe vehicle. She insisted, and they returned her keys and let her leave. A few miles down the road, her brakes fail and she rear-ends someone at a stop light. She calls her grandson crying and asks him to call her insurance man. The grandson smells a rat and calls the insurance guy, explaining what has gone on. Insurance guy agrees the situation stinks out loud and has the car towed to an independent shop for inspection. Dealership is LIVID. They call her and threaten her with lawyers, saying that anyone else touching the car is a violation of their warranty and they can seize the car back from her unless she gets it to their shop IMMEDIATELY. She panics, but the insurance man had already gotten to the shop and the inspection was already done. They found the brake bleed screw had been opened and then incompletely closed. The assholes at the dealership had opened it, drained out fluid to make it low, then (deliberately or otherwise) failed to close it when they let her leave. Cue insurance company's lawyers. I don't know if the dealership lost or settled, but the car was totaled and the insurance company bought her a new car from a different dealership. The dealership eventually was bought out by a competitor and no longer exists.

Just go in there and show them the email on your phone, they can just scan the barcode on it and cash it for you. If the rebate is for more than $500 there is a good chance they will have to write you a check for the amount that you can take to the bank.

Here's a new one. I rent a really great end unit three floor condo and have for 2.5 years. My landlord hit me with the news yesterday that I have to leave at the end of May or he's offering to sell it to me and it's a pretty solid price. I don't wanna move yet so.... anybody have any experience with a Costco mortgage?

True story - My father in law has to have pickled herring on Christmas. I always have some out of obligation, and it's always super gross. This year we picked up a jar from Costco, and holy poo poo, it was actually good. No one at the table believed me until they one by one tried some, and before you knew it, the whole jar was gone. Taima posted:Another key Costco fish win: the super cheap and delicious rock fish that flosses like a superstar in your fish tacos or just fried up Hell yeah, wild caught and $5 a lb. I buy that poo poo and freeze it. Also I just bought a dungeness crab for $8. Goddamn thats cheap. I think $5 or $6 per lb. I ate it, it was great. Will buy more.

It's tasty but jalapeno heat levels vary wildly and they do absolutely nothing to account for it. Sometimes you'll get a weak lot so keep something on hand to bump up the heat. The pickled herring is good stuff.

I don't wanna move yet so.... anybody have any experience with a Costco mortgage? In the home buying thread some of the posters were saying that they shopped around pretty extensively and the Costco recommended lender ended up coming in vastly cheaper. This (a mortgage) is something you should learn to comparison shop, and then you should comparison shop it, because while Costco might be able to get you the best deal, your local credit union might be able to offer you an absolutely insane rate and closing costs. Plus you can negotiate between lenders for rates / fees. Basically go to the BFC subforum and there's a whole thread. Cheers! PBUC

Plus you can negotiate between lenders for rates / fees. This is what I did. I went with my credit union just to keep all of my bills in one place. Now, I wouldn't disgrace the Good Name of Costco, but it made sense for me. They knew all of my finances that they were able to pull up and I was able to get a 20 year 3.5% just by bringing that up. Then again I have a decent paycheck from you guys (the VA, thanks everyone) every month for the rest of my life so that may have played a part.

She gets the pan ready while I'm rolling the fish around in seasoning. I pick up one of the chunks with the tongs and I notice something that looks like a strand of hair or a plastic fibre. That's weird. I grab a knife to scrape it off and The loving thing recoils from the knife once it makes contact. I drop it in the sink and look at the rest of the salmonbits soaking in lime. Little glass filaments writhing around. That's when I learned about parasitic worms and basically peaced out of Wild Caught fishies.

FilthyImp posted:My wife decided to be fancy and buy the Wild Caught Never Frozen Salmon from the 'Co once. Never frozen is your issue there, not the wild caught. The FDA requires any fish sold to be eaten raw be frozen at -4 degrees F for 7 days. This destroys any parasites. Farmed fish are less likely to have parasites, but also have higher incidence of toxic evironmental compounds such as PCBs and dioxin, and lower levels of omega 3 due to the artificial diet and nature of fish farming. Anyway, just eat sardines. They're precooked and don't contain any concentrated heavy metals. They're also very unlikely to contain parasites. They only eat plankton. You normally see these conditions in predatory fish.
