RE: Home w/Reverse Mortgage disposal upon death.
@chyvan Wow, that’s what I call thinking on your feet! Talk about making lemonade out of lemons. Make it clear to the tenants that they need to buy renter’s insurance and provide the certificate to you before they move in. Also, give them a sharp price for cash. Win/win.

RE: SPRING! 50% off full line of WINDEX Wiper Blades + 10% CB at Sears.com (free pick up or ship at $25+)
Picked up a set yesterday. Thanks, Mistercheap!
Please note that if you want one-piece, “frameless”, or “beam”-style blades, you need to choose "Select Perform". The "Balance" model looks like a beam blade, and is marketed as a “hybrid”, which “combines traditional wiper blade and beam wiper blade elements”.
I guess that’s true, in that it looks like a beam blade from five feet away, but is physically a traditional blade, with plenty of joints, hinges, and gaps for snow and ice to pack into.
If anyone is curious, Windex blades are manufactured in China under license from S.C. Johnson, Inc., by Winplus North America, Inc.

RE: Free SLIME Tubeless Bike Tire Sealant Sample
Moderator note: The OP has flagged this post as “expired”.
Here is what the website says: “Requests for this new tubeless sealant were so high, we are currently out! But don’t worry, we are bottling more. Check back in a few days to request a sample”.
So it’s still out there. YMMV!

RE: Free Propeller Inhaler Sensor
Not sure what’s going on with this link. Another Phatwalletforums.com member says that it is expired. I was able to open the link, complete the (rather lengthy) registration process, and create an account. At that point I got the attached message, which says that once I download & install the Propeller app and sign in, they will send the free sensor. YMMV.

RE: Set of generic toner cartridges for Dell C1760nw Color Laser Printer $11.19 - Amazon, FS with Prime or $25 minimum
FWIW, mine came in today. Popped in the magenta cartridge since the original had run out and the printer had quit.
Ten seconds to switch it out and I was back in business. I printed the same full page photo as I had yesterday, and it looked perfect.

RE: Free Pint of Slim Twin by Three Twins Ice Cream
@moonknight From the North Bay Business Journal, October 2017:
“Neal Gottlieb, a contender in the 2016 season of television show Survivor, founded Petaluma-based Three Twins in San Rafael in 2005. The company grew fast, with revenue now at $15 million, he said.”
Doesn’t sound like a small company.
In fact, it sounds big enough to know to take some simple steps to prevent duplication of the coupons, if giving some extra product away during a promotion was going to be a major concern for them.

RE: SPRING! 50% off full line of WINDEX Wiper Blades + 10% CB at Sears.com (free pick up or ship at $25+)
@barrytuneup said in SPRING! 50% off full line of WINDEX Wiper Blades + 10% CB at Sears.com (free pick up or ship at $25+):
per my handle… formerly for 20 years owned an auto diagnostic center in NJ. You get what you pay for in the auto biz. never heard of Windex making wipers. Actually some Chinese co. probably stole the name. As the previous poster mentioned… they squeak. That’s because the rubber is cheap. Would never last a year in the cold/ice and now of the northern states. The freeze thaw cycle will kill them in months. Maybe ok for south and west. But I am particular with my cars. Cant live with squeaks!! I use and sold only top blades from Bosch/Trico.
So you have zero experience with Windex wiper blades then?

RE: Free Pint of Slim Twin by Three Twins Ice Cream
Found a Whole Foods and ventured in for a couple of these in Chocolate and Cookie & Cream flavor.
In terms of the experience…you know you’re not eating ice cream or even light ice cream. Still, not terrible considering it’s made from nuts and berries or whatever.
For what it’s worth, I’m told that it’s a good “deal” on the Weight Watchers point system, so if you’re using that, and there’s a WF not too far off your beaten path, might be worth running a few coupons off on your printer and stocking the freezer.

RE: Free Pint of Slim Twin by Three Twins Ice Cream
If I happen to pass by a Whole Foods, I’ll try and pick one up. Kinda curious to find out what a six-dollar pint of ice cream tastes like.

@liushibinnn 40% off is not a “giveaway”. A “giveaway” means that a product is given away for free.

RE: Just Got This Wonderful Love Note from Newegg!
@dangeruss If I had to guess, I’d say that Newegg is taking part of RI’s Sales and Use Tax reporting requirements out of context.
It’s common to require retailers to report and remit sales taxes monthly, but to require individual taxpayers to do so seems like overreaching.
OTOH, if you had told me a few weeks ago that a retailer the size of Newegg was going to turn over historical customer data to an out-of-state government agency, when they knew that said agency had no power to compel them to do so, and it would almost certainly result in the retailer’s customers being taxed, penalized, and possibly audited , I would have said that seemed like overreaching too. Yet here we are.
