Favorite ice chest/cooler; BGE group controversy
Comments (28)Lol, I know that picture of the bear. A poster on another forum I frequent has that as their avatar. I guess the Yeti is photoshopped as it does not have the same shadow as the bear. Cute any who. I think any group, political, social, even work related...at the office/workplace, will stomp their feet and if a perk is eliminated. My work eliminated all Starbucks and chain fast food receipts years ago. (except for ShakeShack). NYC mom and pop is encouraged, ...buy and support local. (I don't do 'Sitbucks' or any chain fast food) I do try and practice-what-i-preach. No plastics or p-towels within reason. Cloth and filtered home bottled. Do what seems right. Less waste and USA or local when possible. Coolers? I'm a sucker for good design/branding. I did more research than I care to admit a year ago. Thinking we should replace our two coolers that have served our needs for almost 20 years. 3 day road trip to our beach house. (2 days, 15 hour ferry, 3 hours to the home). Sometimes add a day for foul weather. I watched the ice test videos and never took the bait for the Yeti. It is, I bet, a lifetime investment, but maybe if our wheels and handles broke? or cracked and stopped performing we may jump?...not sure. I do like that you have it Lars. And the BGE. I would go that route as well but our old 20 year grill/smoker is still kicking and no longer babied being left out years round now. (so well built being so old unlike recent models I've noticed). I'm OCD about travel and packing so I know all the tricks for frozen to last 4-5 days. I would accept this as a gift, lol. A 40 dollar 5 gallon bucket...another 100 for a lid and accessories, : ) Ha ha, my dozen five gallon buckets are for utility and hauling poop and compost and stacked filthy, then hosed off and bleached occasionally.......See MoreFB Marketplace messenging
Comments (5)That's strange! I would just ignore those ones. Why would someone respond to an English speaking ad in another language?? If they can't be bothered to translate what they're asking, I wouldn't bother replying. Just delete the message. On a good side note: I bought the most beautiful L shaped desk with a spare side table for only $50 yesterday!!! I have been watching the ads like a hawk for several weeks and this was the best one yet. When I went to pick it up, I asked, "You ONLY want $50 for it???" He looked puzzled. lol It's from Costco and very sturdy. Now we have to play the Swedish game of Ikea and put it together. When I asked if it was going to be apart, I didn't think he was going to completely pull it apart. He did, however bag all the screws and hinges into different baggies and labeled which section they were for, AND he still had the instruction book! I was so impressed!...See MoreToday’s hot marketplace find
Comments (44)Tartan, I actually started as an art major in college but quickly realized I was a very small fish in a big pond. Changed my major to English but kept an art minor. A hundred years later went back to school for a certificate in decorative arts and I work PT as a decorator, actually more like a consultant. But the real reason we have a lot of art is because it‘s the only thing DH likes to shop for. Haha. A lot of our art is from traveling, because we always browse in galleries when we find them. He’s frugal about a lot of things, but will always spend on art. Anyway, thank you for your kind words. 🙂...See MoreDo you use FB Marketplace?
Comments (34)I haven't yet, but I've given things away via the FB Buy Nothing ____ (your region typed here) pages. There have been a couple things I wanted that I saw, but others got to them there, first. I have found homes for two things (something I ran out of time to return to Home Depot, a rug that turned out to be not worth a pile of beans (but could be great in someone's mudroom or a kid's bedroom, just NOT quality enough in a living room - and they made it difficult beyond words to do returns), and some extra chickens. I'd hatched some of my own along with the order I'd placed, and was terribly surprised with 8 out of 10 survivors - and not enough space. SO, a few got another new home to lay in, and someone just wanting cockerels got what I suspect will be dinner when they are big enough. (Which, TBH, I would have done myself, had I the coop space to raise them to size, atm.) Sometime I might try FB's marketplace....See More- 2 years ago
