When you move to Colorado you get a few choices. Colorado Native, sticker of some other state with a heart or integrated in the word home, or something about the mountains calling and you must go.

Has anyone bought an appliance recently from Church? Between the extra year warranty and free installation/haul away, Church is about 10% cheaper than my next option, but I've been hearing that the delivery service has been really bad as of late.

I think delivery is subcontracted out, so it really depends on where you are. In one state the 'white glove' delivery was great, but where I live now they dumped it in front of my garage and left. It made me leery enough that we just went with Lowe's for our dishwasher.

In my city regardless of where you buy an appliance they all come from the same warehouse and are delivered by a third party company. If you buy a washer from Lowes, Home Depot, Menards, Costco, Etc, they all come from the same place so buy from whatever store is the cheapest at the time. That is what the delivery guy told me a few years ago.

I had a range delivered and installed and the crew Costco sent was excellent. Moved the old one out to the garage for me (I was reselling it) hooked the new on up, set the little anti tip foot, leveled it and we tested it. I'll use them again when I eventually buy a new washer.

I think the returns dept keeps track of the abusers so if you don't do it too often it's not so bad. But getting over $2k for something they'll throw away is pretty lovely.

I bought bagels from the bakery department in the back, and I think they were fried in rancid oil because they reeked. I threw out the bagels, and said exactly that to the return people. They refunded me my $10 without a thought.

I refuse to acknowledge the difference between a bagel and a donut. That'd be like me trying to tell you there's a difference between a crow and a raven, or between the People's Front of Judea and the Judean People's Front. It was a bagel I misspoke about the frying but they were nonetheless rancid.

The All State Protection Plans (formerly SquareTrade) are great. I bought a 75" TCL tv from Costco in 2019 and paid for the protection plan. The TV died the week before xmas. Called the claims dept and they tried to find a "suitable replacement" but couldn't and instead sent me a check for the entire purchase price. Then I went to Costco to get a new TV and the guy told me if I got another 75" I would have to pay $100 for the protection plan but if I upgraded to an 85" they throw it in for free. How could I argue with that. So I now have a nice Samsung 85" QLED and don't have to worry about anything going wrong for the next 5 years as it is covered. PBUC

Poopelyse posted:what is a 'wall bed' anyway? like a murphy bed? Same thing, yes, Murphy Bed seems to be a registered trademark and the company might be fighting generic use of the term so doesn't become public domain (like what happened with "escalator" etc). You have to bolt it to wall studs for it to work and it will murder you if you gently caress that part up. Mine was a wall desk bed, so it had a desk when folded up, and the hinges keep the desk always level so you can leave short things like laptops on the desk, but you can't leave something like a full size monitor or it would be crushed. As mentioned it had the void that consumed pillows and phones, and the desk had no leg room under it unless you're tiny. The one thing that it did do super well was to clear a ton of room for VR when folded up. But I had to give up and put a real desk in the room because of the legroom and monitor issues so that was defeating the purpose. It's one of those things that is good for a niche purpose and niche person, but there's nowhere on the planet where you can try one out; I've never seen one set up in a furniture store in my life. I think most people buy it as a way to have a stealthy guest bed that looks like a wardrobe closet or desk and almost never use it; it's form over function and suffers as a primary bed due to that. Live and learn!

I have one of the glass/metal standing desks I bought from Costco during the pandemic WFH push that has an annoying noise when it goes up and down that may or may not be normal, but otherwise seems to work ok. I used the noise and smaller size as a reason to go bigger, and was going to sell the standing desk to a friend at a heavy discount, but they stopped responding about it and now you have me thinking maybe I should take it back to Costco and get a refund…

For food stuff that is obviously rotten I've been told that my Costco will refund without the trip back in, just contact them and send photos for the refund and throw it in the trash.
