lifehacker: Get Free Wendy's Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers Until Sunday
You can only get one per visit, but you can visit as many times as your stomach desires.
Bacon, cheese, and beef sure are great protein sources! Visit as many times as your stomach desires! You know, for your health! Woohoo! ;)
Do what I say, not what I do. :)

I've recently experienced Chinese chemical prices at approximately 25% what there were a year ago. In some cases, packaged prices are less than what I can buy the empty package for here in the States. Is there a way you can show this graphically?
ReplyDeleteHere’s one chart that seems relevant:

Thank you. Definitely lagging. The end point should be <105 at this point in time. Massive dumping going on now.
DeleteAfter the fact, I questioned how I crafted the question. I thought that for sure I inadvertently opened the door for you to have drawn a graph in sarcasm.
If you want “empty package” commentary, then you should read what I wrote here:

80% of my order was missing. There was 700 times more packing material than actual product. I kid you not! That’s gotta be close to a world record!! They don’t call themselves Furious Tree Games for nothing, apparently! ;)
I wouldn’t buy from China if it was free!
ReplyDeleteMy heart agrees with you, but the reality is that the quality is very good and prices are half. If you don't your competitor will. It's a trap. The Chinese are trying to destroy the market, and they are patient. Otherwise, why would you leave so much money on the table? They could easily be 10% lower and have an impact. Less than half shows intent.
DeleteI tried not buy anything Chinese-made for a while. You should give it a try. It is near impossible. Almost everything (except most food fortunately) is made in China. In many cases you just can’t find a non-Chinese made item.
ReplyDeleteAlmost everything (except most food fortunately)…
ReplyDeleteChinese food and fortunately? How am I supposed to resist that? ;)
As seen in the Internet:
The fortune cookie I got with my chinese food today was weird...
It said, ”FREE ME FROM THIS FACTORY
Lucky Numbers 23.5° N, 121.0° E”
Stocks were looking good first of December, now it looks like those hopes have faded.

SPB (Sex Panther Bank) would have been safer.

They’ve done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.

Hmmm….who else do I know that buys TIPS?

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, the TIPS yields aren’t bad at all right now, for those who would buy and hold to maturity.
