    The Sam's Club Thread

    I live in Ames and have both a Sam's Club membership and Costco membership (and use both frequently). They both have positives. For Ames, their gas is always considerably cheaper which makes having the membership a no brainer. The electronics/clothes at Costco are really good and just meh at...

    The Costco Thread

    Anyone else buy movie theater gift cards there from Cinemark? You get $50 worth for $40 and can load them in the app. I go to a movie once a week and it's effectively a 20% discount at the movie theater.

    First time poster in this thread. I started my health change on Thanksgiving (went to the doc and had horrible blood pressure). Since that time, I am down 43 pounds (263 down to 220). My blood pressure is now normal. I changed my diet completely and now do at least a 5k everyday. I also do...

    New TV Recommendations

    The old Panasonic ZT60??? Those things were amazing. I think they also put out the heat of a space heater, but were top notch with picture quality back in the day.

    New TV Recommendations

    It was the biggest jump in image quality of my lifetime (going from 480p to 1080p). Those panasonic plasmas were incredible. They don't hold a candle to modern OLEDs and image processing, but I get your passion for plasmas.

    New TV Recommendations

    It's always difficult to recommend a TV to someone because it depends on a lot of things like: 1) Is there a lot of natural sunlight in the viewing room? 2) What kind of viewing angles in the room? 3) How far away are you watching the TV? 4) What does the budget look like? 5) How sensitive are...

    John Deere as corporate punching bag

    John Deere as corporate punching bag
