No Go at Jewel.

@my4mainecoons
that s 4.5 gig of data for the year, instead of the usual 1.5 g. They are giving you the normal 1500/1500/1.5 plan plus giving an extra 3 gig data card. Enough if you only use wifi and use data very sparingly. You can always get more data if you are running low. The only phone with considerable data is the google pixel, and it’s expensive.

unless I’m missing it, it doesn’t say how much internal storage the phone has, only that it’s expandable. Looking it up, they only make a 128 or 256 one, so I would assume it has 128gb of storage (for apps, photos, etc)

Confirmed at ACME, check your IB to see if your Albertson’s chain has this freebie.

@MISTERCHEAP did you use your $20 credit yet? Did it just come off a $20 transaction without activation? Did the $20 in groceries include more than just dairy & produce?

No not yet. Last week I had a $40 off $75 PU order Q, used that, I’ll use it before it expires one way or another and report back when I do.

Does this one have just 45gb of memory? What is a 3GB add on card?

Do people still actually send things through the USPS? It got to the point where I was mainly only mailing rebates, and nowadays I don’t hardly even do that. (Menards is one of the few exceptions, and that’s only 2–3 times a year.) I bought a bunch of discounted forever stamps three or four years ago and I might have a lifetime supply at this rate, or the USPS is going to cease to exist anyway.

On a semi-related tangent, I even unplugged my home phones a while back, even though it was a grandfathered Ooma VOIP system that was completely free, no fees or taxes or anything, because it had become only a source of spam/junk calls and I figured why even pay the electricity to keep them plugged in.

Maybe a few times a year I will use USPS stamps for mailing sweepstakes AMOEs for big prizes. It has to be a pretty compelling sweepstakes because I can barely fit the address of most sweepstakes on an envelope, they make it so difficult and I’m not used to writing with my hands instead of a keyboard or phone.

@MISTERCHEAP did you use your $20 credit yet? Did it just come off a $20 transaction without activation? Did the $20 in groceries include more than just dairy & produce?

There are codes printed along the edge of the rolls of stamps and other “checks”. I stopped buying stamps from eBay years ago because I couldn’t be certain that they were real. I missed the CVS deal.

Can the USPS really tell if postage stamps are fake? I bought a ton of stamps at Office Depot with rewards. One time I mailed a package covered with forever stamps and the clerk asked me where I got all those stamps. I said “Office Depot” and that was the end of it. I am glad he didn’t require proof because I didn’t keep my receipts.

Does the USPS check for fake stamps?

Yes, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) can and does detect counterfeit stamps, primarily through automated scanning technology that checks for specific ultraviolet (UV) light-sensitive phosphors. The Postal Inspection Service uses these methods to identify fake stamps and counterfeit package labels during mail processing.

How to tell if forever stamps are fake?

In general, some things to look out for include blurry or fuzzy text and design details, differences in color, die cuts that aren’t quite right, and more.
