AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) – AppleCare+ Claim for ANC Degradation Over Time

I purchased AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) about two years ago, and the ANC is fading to the point where I can not distinguish transparency from the ANC modes. With my purchase at Costco, I received 2 years of AppleCare+, which will expire soon. As someone who does not live close to an Apple store, should I try to drive out to one and make a claim? How does Apple test something like that? Would they try to...

Vegetable Broth Shortage?

While I usually use Chicken for my cooking I always keep a few cans of Veg on hand for times like Lent, or if I am making something vegetarian for a party. For the past several weeks I have been looking for Veg broth to restock my pantry. The largest grocery store in our area has ZERO Veg Broth. The huge section that has broth only has multiple brands Beef, Chicken and a couple brands of fish/s...

Budget Florist Needed for Queens/Long Island Wedding (<$2k)

Wedding is in May 2026. We'll be buying flowers from Costco and we need a florist's help to make 30 centerpieces for the tables. Hopefully the person can also help store the centerpieces and deliver them to Long Island. We don't need a high-end florist - happy to work with reliable students/people who want paid experience in this field. Thanks!

Are hot food counters disappearing from supermarkets?

Speaking as a Londoner, it seems as if, up until fairly recently, you could walk into any Sainsburys / Asda / Tesco (even some smaller ones) and you'd find a hot food unit or counter, where you could get ready-to-eat cuts of meat, prepared meals, roast veg and whole joints (especially roast chicken) etc. My local Tesco replaced their hot food unit with an in-store Greggs and my local Sainsbury's ...

Survival Tip: Japanese bacon IS crispable

If you have something as simple as a little toaster oven, that texture you’re used to can be achieved without buying imported bacon or hoofing it to Costco for the pre-cooked frozen stuff. All ya gotta do is bake it. Edit or the inquiries: As for brands, I never sought out anything specific, I've used 3 different kinds over the years and all had the same result in the oven. Most recent brand wa...

Observation: Organic and name brand food items appear to have less preservative based ingredients?

Over the past year I've been paying much more closer attention to ingredients in food, especially with my 3 year old son eating more then ever. I had always been a generic store brand (Walmart Great Value, Kroger brand, etc) purchaser up until recently. While organic and store brands may not always mean better it's clear that more often then not it means less preservative based ingredients. Here...

Funny way the Executive-only hours pay off for the company.

So, I'm an Executive member, and have been for a good decade. This idea of a special timeframe seems cool: zip in, zip out, less crowds. Here's the thing: I never use it, it's just not convenient. Nonetheless, when I'm putting things on a list, those incidentals that I might normally hit a regular store for because they aren't 'worthy' of waiting for a Costco trip...end up on the Costco list. ...

Pixel 10 promo Trade-In at Store vs Shipping – My Experience (Promo Almost Lost)

I placed my order at Costco with no issues. Two days later, I received a text confirming my line was enrolled in the promotion, and I could see it under “Current Promotions” in T-Life. Today, I decided to drop off my trade-in at a T-Mobile store instead of shipping it, thinking it would be safer. After they accepted the device, I asked for a receipt. The receipt showed a trade-in value of **...

My easy way to find the cheapest price

On a recent post I saw someone comment about how they wished that there was a “gas buddy” type of app that could track the price of grocery staples across stores so they could easily be searched and compared. Maybe this is nothing new, but I wanted to share what I have done for a while now to do this pretty easily. I use the instacart app to search for literally everything before I buy. Many ...
