also i did executive membership because the guy said that if you don't get at least a $60 rebate to make up the difference, they write you a check for that amount (?) cool
I dropped from executive to regular right before my first membership renewal. You have to bring in the rebate check (or they just credit less that amount) and the refund was in the form of a credit towards your membership renewal at the regular rate.

So basically if executive doesn't work out, you just get a reupped regular membership instead.

Also they didn't hassle me over it t all.

As cool as church is, the most pathetic job is trying to sell water heaters to people walking out the door.

I feel like the solar panel hucksters are worse. The water heaters are actually useful but the solar panels are a scam where the installers pocket the federal rebates and gouge you hard enough that you'll never see a return on investment. Gives solar a bad name.

Well, I say gently caress Sunrun because I gave them my info trying to get panels installed, and then after I gave them my information, they ghosted me for about a year, only coming back to ask me for it again right when NEM2 grandfathering was going away in California.

By that time, I had already found a local solar firm that I gave my business to and am very happy with.

I made the mistake of putting my phone number in a solar calculator thing online and was inundated will phone calls, like at least one per day for weeks. Plus texts. A sure fire way to guarantee I will never choose that company should we decide to get solar.

I was having a poo poo day last time I went and got a bit snippy with the solar panel guy. My dude, I already told you no the last time and my reason is that we already did look into it we were told it would be stupid for us to get them.

Don't engage or even break stride, just say "no thanks" and keep moving. You don't owe anyone a conversation just because they tried to start one.

Why are there just sticks of butter poking out of that warped meat effigy

I wasn't sure if the filling would dry out during cooking. In retrospect, it wasn't necessary and may have detracted from the overall flavor a bit.

I got the butter idea from this (which owns btw)

When WirelessAdvocates was the kiosk, you could make money upgrading your phones and selling the old ones by waiting for the buy one get one deal. Now that they’re gone I have no idea when I’ll upgrade a phone again.

I actually signed up for my current membership to take advantage of a T-mobile kiosk BOGO deal, saved me about $500 over retail.

Stopped at Costco for gas for the first time this morning, no line at 8am and only about $10 to fill up my tank. Also added some grip tape to the rack on the back of my bike to make strapping a pumpkin pie/whole pizza to it a little safer.
