You an amateur baker too?

Okay this is kinda out there but is anyone interested in a monthly ad-hoc bake off Meetup? I love making pizza dough for pizzas, sourdough bread, sausage rolls/Meat Pies. I'd love to find similar kinda of people who also share the passion but can learn off. I'm attempting butter pastry for sausage rolls because store bought sausage rolls suck (Brekka/Costco). This is purely a fun baking idea like...

TPCI need to stop releasing new sets and give the ones they've released more time in the sun.

Currently, in Australia, the supply has been incredibly low which creates a higher level of demand. With that higher demand, there is a lot more customers who become desperate and give the power to the scalpers by funding them. The US shelves seem to be getting flooded with stock at the moment (although they still sell out) which is great for them - but the problem is getting worse in Australia. ...

My experience in the new Phoenix store this Weekemd

Ok, expatriate New Yorker here who has long missed a computer super store. I bought a M4 mini in February and have been using an old 24” Dell ultra sharp monitor. I decided it was time to get a real display and went to Micro Center to buy one. The wall of monitors was unbelievable, 20x the displays in BB, WM, & Costco. I had already decided on an OLED for my use, either 27” or 32”....

Messy Philly Cheesesteak @ 5342 Vineland Ave

Here’s a recommendation: don’t waste your time and money. Their pic shows a typical-sized cheesesteak in a roll, barely covering the person’s hand. $14 you’re thinking footlong or at least a hefty 6-inch roll. Instead, the cheesesteaks received were in a hot dog bun—sized bread, not kidding. The store pic is very misleading. Took a picture with a soy sauce packet for reference. Costco ...

Grocery Shopping Haul

How do y'all do grocery shopping hauls here in Japan? Grocery stores are typically less than 5 km away and yes I can always just eat out, but when I need to buy large amounts of groceries like at Costco, it's not great having to haul all of the groceries. The best solution I've found is to use suitcases and take them on public transit because taxis are so expensive, but I'm wondering if there a be...

Costco Ritz Crackers are widely underbaled.

I have no idea who I should be reporting this to, but for maybe the last year or possibly 18 months, I could have sworn that the Costco Ritz Crackers were unbaked, tasted different, and we're much more "delicate" feeling. I thought I might have just been crack or that the recipe changed. And in the last 18 months I've only bought Ritz from Costco. I had it with a particularly under ba...

Celtic Sea Salt to-go packets, where to find?

Grocery budget for 2 adults and a large dog (German Shepard mix)

I am surprised at the cost of groceries and also the huge amount my boyfriend eats lol. When I was single and didn’t cook a ton I spent about $400-500 a month on groceries for me and my dog (I boil chicken for my dog weekly as treats and get him nice lamb based dog food that costs about $80 a month for kibble and about $30 a month for chicken) since moving in with my boyfriend I do all the shopp...

Need help

Wanted to transition from console gaming to pc gaming (mainly modern games like the likes of bf6, ffxiv, marvel rivals, etc) especially for steam games and mods. Not many stores ship internationally to my location and not close to any stores like microcenter or costco. Was wondering if these are good options for what are available to me. These are on Amazon and it seems mainly the skytech PCs are ...

Remember the Whole Garlic Clove Batard? I need suggestions for a worthy substitution for that, please.

The whole garlic clove batard was sold at Trader Joe's for at least a few years before its discontinuation, IIRC starting some time between 1999 and maybe 2009? It had, as its name would suggest, lots of full cloves of roasted garlic throughout. It was the best garlic bread I have ever had in my life and I miss it greatly. If you have never seen or heard of the famous Whole Garlic Clove Batard f...

Preserving winter tires

I bought winter tires (blizzaks) from Costco and I’m getting them installed this week. I would like tips to preserve them and make sure they last. I live near Chicago, so use that as the temperature basis. How should they be stored? Specific temperatures? Can I run them in the cold on plowed roads, or will that affect the tread? Any recommendations would be appreciated.

There's way too many choices for laptops - how do I effectively narrow it down?

I've been wanting a new laptop for a while now. I've been using a \~12 year HP laptop that I finally retired and replaced with a chromebook earlier this year but finding that I don't like ChromeOS (too limiting/unfamiliar vs what i can easily do on windows) & so I'm back in the market for a new laptop. & holy crap, there are so many options, so many CPU/RAM/GPU/manufacturer/store...

Costco Christmas Garland

Has anyone seen the fresh garland at either Costco this year? It says online only but it's been in store in the past even when it says that. Just figured I'd ask before trudging up there

Shopping while black

Y'all, I am so tired of shopping while black. I feel like anymore whenever I go to the store I am either completely ignored by staff or stalked by them. There is no in-between and I find doing any shopping unpleasant anymore. At self checkout, the staff stands directly behind me or watches me the entire time I check out. I had one woman yell at me about a self checkout register being card only...

Am I the only one?

I feel like I could do one Costco order and make the money I do one 3 kroger/Publix orders But the store is just so big and busy . Should I just suck it up and learn the store ?

Debating between a few $250-350 options

Hello all. Apologies that this is US based, but it's that time of year. I'm trying to decide between a few options for a couple teens whose friends have various e-scooters and e-bikes. It's not a daily work commuter, more like a 2-10 mile round trip suburbia handler to get to friends houses and nearby parks. Lots of hills (not too steep, but everywhere), so they are having issues with their petal...

Grocery store receipt integrations

I was looking into the 4 common stores I use and was wondering if anyone had some integrations setup somehow. One benefit is price tracking which I do not normally use when doing Purchase. Safeway, Costco, Grocery Outlet, Whole Foods Each store uses different methods, with Costco using JSON but custom item numbers, Safeway with nice JSON and meta data like sale prices, Whole Foods (Amazon) pre...
