I am an operator at one of the big refineries out side of New Orleans. I actually make gasoline . We are making it as fast as we can.

I've been stalking the Kohl's site this week waiting for the $10 Kohl's Cash on $50 purchase to come back while the AT-AT at $799.99 was still in stock. It came back today, so I was able to get one with $160 Kohl's Cash and $60 rewards (7.5%) for using the Kohl's card. $220 back before they raise the base price to $850. Now I'm waiting to see if it ships. https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-5554578/lego-star-wars-at-at-75313-collectible-building-kit-6785pieces.jsp?prdPV=1

Ha, sorry. Yeah every time there is Kohl’s Cash I go in and grab 2 First Flying Lesson (Kohl’s Exclusive) and get the $10 KC to use on a third if they have it in stock, if not I head straight to the gold toe socks.

I just realized the MSRP for Mario figure series 5 is $5.99 versus $4.99 like previous series. This and the new packaging mean I am done with the series. Sure, but my point was most people would not know the MSRP prior to 8/1. So they would think they get better deal with bigger discount %, even though the actual $ paid is higher now vs on 7/31. The higher $ paid should account for the increase in B2B price

Just like everything else, the market will try to charge you as much as you are willing to pay. It's why when the corporate tax cuts were significantly slashed a few years back came down, prices were not changed in any meaningful way. The same reason why if corporate taxes are raised, the prices won't change in any meaningful way. Everyone prices the same way we do. We will take the maximum people are willing to pay, everything on top of our cost basis is profit and we like profit.

Cheapest gas in my town is $3.89. I drove 19 miles away to check on clearance at a Walmart and saw that the Murphy’s there was $3.35 and used my Walmart + to get it down $.010 to $3.25. WTH is with these massive price differences? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah TOOS, word on the street is sets that got price increases are not retiring this year.

It actually says “VIP” on the front so most likely not.

Dammit, I try not to think of my ex-wife and there you go reminding me!

think broomsticks

I've tried very hard to figure out what this is. What is it?

If it doesn’t you should still get to keep the Kohls Cash. I will be stopping by to grab 2 more FFL and a whopping $10 KC.

I have gone back listening to some "bardcore" which can be akin to what formally discussed Leo Moracchioli does in spirit but on the other side of the spectrum being calm & joyfully folksy and considerably less skull smashing. Ha. Algal the Bard is a good channel for some. Also, Hildegard von Blingin' has a wonderful voice. (Instrumental original here.)

Picked up the trash compactor (personal build) before price rise. And the local lego shop finally had some AT-ST polybags. Other than that pretty quiet on the purchase front - and sales have slowed. waiting to see what happens over the next couple of months with all the economic doom and gloom
