The turkey bacon seems to be the best value for the money and it freezes very well.

Boursin cheese is laughably expensive literally everywhere else.

ShowTime posted:Yea this is kind of my fear, so i'm gonna pass. I want a big rear end comfortable chair I can sink into, but I want to be able to get out of it and not get out of it 2 hours later with a sweaty back. I'm trying to find a perfect chair for reading and so far have had 0 luck. Was hoping the LoveSac would do it. They are a little pricey, but you only need to buy a La-Z-Boy recliner once. Best chair I've ever owned. After a long day, I can feel the stress bleed out through the cushions.

Picked up a Firman 3 fuel generator to offset any seasonal power outages. This thing is a beast.

Paul MaudDib posted:How is it for power quality? Will (eg) your UPSs and so on charge themselves from it? Yeah, there are hidden costs when buying a generator to power your home. I highly recommend connecting your electronics to a good UPS to clean up the power. e: I bought an APC Smart UPS 1500 many years ago. It's one of the few consumer UPS that is generator certified.

namlosh posted:Generator chat: is it an inverter type or “gen-set”? I always wanted a generator but live in an apartment now so it would be stupid. One day... It's a regular non inverted generator that can use gasoline, propane tanks or a direct natural gas line for fuel. Because I've run all my electronics on UPS' for years, the inversion feature wasn't that important for me. Generators need a lot of ventilation, which is why it's a good idea to build a permanent outdoor enclosure if the generator is meant as a backup power source for your home. I honestly have no idea how you'd do that for an apartment. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Feb 3, 2021 |

poisonpill posted:I was quoted like $2,000 to install a generator hookup to the house. Was that in line with what it should cost? I'm not sure because that depends on the home. it would be a good idea to shop around. There's a ton of things that can go wrong if you incorrectly connect a generator directly to your home's breaker box. Be very careful and get a good electrician to do the wiring for you. This is one area that you do NOT want to gently caress around with.

My wife and I bought each other La-Z-Boy recliners a few years ago. They are the last chair I'll ever own.

StormDrain posted:The Kirkland Signature chocolate and almond dipped vanilla ice cream bars are incredible. So much almond and a thick coating. i'm pretty sure they are rebranded Haagen-Dazs, in the same way that Kirkland batteries are made by Duracell and the Kirkland Yogurt is made by Danone.

FogHelmut posted:Pro tip: the best parking spots are nearest the cart returns. This is actually very true. There's a perfect spot that literally no one parks at because it's a little too far from the store, so it's basically been mine for a couple of years now.

Costco hotdogs are also a buck fifty up here in Canada, which means they are actually one dollar and nineteen American pennies. We don't have pennies up here anymore.

CitizenKain posted:Check if you have a Habitat for Humanity Restore around, there are certain things they'll take. I used to volunteer at a local Habitat Restore. Please, please make sure that you donate stuff that still works fairly well because the Restore is not a dump. e:my first job at the Restore was to clean a fridge. it was literally covered in stickers; lots and lots of stickers. I probably went through two full bottle of Goo Gone by the time I was done. It also dawned on me that this was a very gentle form of hazing for the new volunteer. At the end of the day it was a good experience, but again, please make sure you donate good working equipment to your local Restore. Anyway, Costco is amazing. My brother lived in Ukraine for a couple years, eating foods at the local open air outdoor markets. When he came back, going to a Costco blew his loving mind. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 19:31 on Jun 7, 2022 |
