Lol, bicycles already have a top tube. This is mostly for a “women’s frame” bike, which are questionable enough to start with! Unless you bike in your prairie dress, of course.

I have this model and it works great for my yard, where I only have to worry about smallish maple and ash tree leaves (only two on the property). If you have larger leaves (think bigger than your palm) or lots of twigs I would skip this as a mulcher, because you will CONSTANTLY be clogging up the intake and having to fish out the blockages. The attached bag is also tiny, so while it does an excellent job of mulching you will be emptying it literally every 30 seconds or so if you’re attacking a pile of leaves. As I said, works for me, but will definitely not be a fit for every yard.

Ugly looking ones on sale. Overpriced brand. My so-called “hiking socks” turned all fuzzy after one washing.

I have a better and less expensive antenna connected to my big screen TV .

I personally don’t want to watch TV on a PC.

@stephanie said in Adidas extra 70% off in cart @ebay:

@bender So if I buy $25+, it’s going to be 80% off, right?

I think only if it’s $25 after discount, and it’s not 80% off it’s (1-(0.3*0.9))*100=72% off

That dimmer doesn’t come up for me. Only the on/off switch.

And at Amazon:

Amazon

same price as a whole pot

It seems to have recovered to the original price.Or is the product sold out?

It looks like the price is now over $40.

@myisland said in 12-Pack Simply Asia Chicken Tikka Masala Seasoning Mix $9.31@Amazon S&S:

@bender Contains controversial Maltodextrin which is not needed and certainly not a traditional ingredient.

Not in the butter chicken one

Some are expired now, the kids editions are still good.

I’m really surprised this is not getting more attention. It was one of the best deals last summer.

Deal Over

@myisland Your cats are lucky. Statistically indoor cats live longer than outdoor cats. We have fisher cats and fox which like cats. 9 is young for cancer. I keep mine indoors because I’m selfish. I don’t want to lose them nor do I want to feel I could have prevented their deaths by keeping them indoors.

I enjoyed this movie. @bender Make sure you get the family discount when you order.

What’s a family discount?

My bad. I guess I shouldn’t assume that all robots are related.

Frankly, that’s racist… or speciest or something.

@bender Finally, a knife worthy of Roberto.

@midori said in Kershaw 3.5" Ken Onion Leek Steel Folding Knife $23.99 @Amazon:

Hey, it’s my EDC! I love mine in the Olive Drab. Pretty much the perfect size and shape for an everyday carry, though sometimes I feel like removing the safety pin just for ease of use". Hard to beat at that price.

I also saw a tip about reversing the clip so that you can more quickly take it out of a pocket and more easily flip the blade out.

Unfortunately OOS- Roberto is gonna be mad…and when Roberto gets mad…Roberto gets stabby!

Backordered, not quite OOS.
