@cyancello said in FatWallet closing: Final Day Monday 10/9:

On 10/9/2017, searching google for site:fatwallet.com “archived from” yielded 175,000 results. Yesterday it was down to 171,000 and just now it is down to 168,000 results.

In other words, Google’s cache of archived fatwallet threads appears to be going away. I would imagine the same would apply to Google’s cache of “active” fatwallet.com threads.

This what I do:

1. Google Search a particular thread on site:fatwallet.com/
2. Copy the url from the search and paste it into the WayBackMachine site
   This brings up the particular thread I am looking for on FW since all FW urls are redirecting to eButts.

@my4mainecoons said in What’s Best Option for Paying Dental Bill?:

Sounds like no one has a better idea

Depending on how spread out your dental payment will be, you could apply for a credit card or two to easily make ~$500-$1000 in promotional bonuses. For example, Chase Sapphire, BOA premium rewards card etc.

@my4mainecoons said in Sears online only: Get $50 cashback in points when you spend $50+ on select winter clothes. Free shipping. Now through Sat., 1/20/18:

@marcopolomle are they a Hot Buy, Daily Deal, on clearance or other disqualifier?

Thanks @my4mainecoons
I finally figured it out.
$30 FC is only for Sears purchases while $7FC is for Sears &KMart purchases.
Although I selected “sold by Sears only” while searching, the shoe I had in my cart was sold by KMart.

Why would anyone pay to give their DNA to anyone ?

You go G Girl !
I’m learning so much from you guys
I never knew all these existed.

XM Plans (https://www.xfinity.com/mobile/plan)

• No line access fees on up to 5 lines
• Unlimited Verizon nationwide talk and text
• Unlimited: $45 PER LINE, no sharing
• By the gig (pay-as-you-go) plan: SHARED by all lines. Under 100MB: FREE; Otherwise, $12/GB
• There is no contract, you will pay monthly taxes and fees which vary by location…usually $2-3 but in areas like City and County of San Francisco, California - $5.21

Devices:
*XM is a Verizon MVNO, most XM devices are LOCKED to XM. See below for unlock policy.
*XM & Verizon does not tied SIM card and phone together. (Sprint ties them together).
*This means, with XM, you are free to move the XM SIM card to any compatible devices, including VZW post-paid phones (VZW prepaid phone has to be unlocked).

• Make sure that when you use a non-XFinity Mobile branded device that in order for data to work, to set the APN to:
  COMCAST.RSLR.VZWENTP
  If you’ve activated but your iPhone’s not working, confirm that you see “XFINITY Mobile” on the top left of the home screen.
  Connect to a WiFi network
  Go to Settings > General > About
  Wait for the Carrier Settings Update prompt to appear, then select “Update” which will get your data working.
  For those with iPhone’s who are unable to change/edit your APN, goto http://www.unlockit.co.nz/unlockit and even though XFinity Mobile is not on the list, just pick Verizon Wireless which will make the APN visible so you can manually edit it.
• The latest and current PRL (Preferred Roaming List) as of September 17, 2017 is 15516.
  If you have a older version, you will need to power off phone, remove SIM from phone and power on phone so it boots up. After booting up, you will need to power off phone, insert SIM in phone and power on. You can check the PRL version by going to Settings -> About phone -> Status. The PRL is what controls what cell towers you can and cannot connect
  to including the 1xRTT/3G/4G LTE networks. This is a better explanation of what a PRL is:
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preferred_Roaming_List
• Hint: Buy $1 LG X Charge, unlocked LG X Charge first. and then move XM sim to an iPhone/Pixel/etc.

Port-in:
As of September 1, 2017 - You can order the phone with a new number and activate while still being able to port your number from another carrier. To do so you’ll need to call XFinity
Mobile Team at 888-936-4968 so their mobile team can assist with your number change/porting request. This information was posted by ComcastMax in official capacity in the following thread and also verified by XFinity Mobile on Facebook:
http://forums.xfinity.com/t5/Xfinity-Mobile/change-number/td-p/2…

LG X Charge for $1:
*Exclusive XM SKU
5.5" 720p Screen
2 GB RAM
Large 4,500 mAh battery
Bluetooth 4.2
Wi-Fi 2.4Ghz/5G Dual Band !!
Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 !!
Snapdragon 425 CPU
Android 7.0 (Nougat)
Internal Storage of 16 GB (9.43 GB usable)
microSD slot up to 2TB

• LG X Charge comes SIM LOCKED to XM. Asking me for Sim Unlock Pin using a T-Mobile sim and my VZW sim
• AFTER you request unlock, it can partially support AT&T & T-Mobile (missing some bands).
• AFTER you request unlock, it WILL NOT support Sprint, as all Sprint devices have to be whitelisted and even if it was whitelisted, it is missing 4G LTE bands 25, 26, 41 so all you will get is 3G.

UNLOCK INFO
Attention: Make sure you put your XM SIM into the phone you want unlocked, turn the phone on and allow it to register on the network as they can only provide the unlock code for the most recent registered device.

https://www.xfinity.com/mobile/support/article/115004305128/am-i-eligible-to-unlock-my-phone

If you need to unlock your phone so that you can switch out your SIM card, it’s no problem. There are just a few requirements to be aware of.
Criteria for unlocking your phone
Make sure the following things are true:
The phone must be an XFINITY Mobile device.
The phone must not be reported lost, stolen, or involved with fraudulent activity.
The phone cannot be active on another XFINITY Mobile customer’s account.
Your XFINITY Mobile Account must be in good standing. One exception is if you are an active member of the military—regardless of account standing, all active-duty military personnel are eligible to have their phones unlocked.
If you’re on a Device Payment Plan…
In addition to the criteria mentioned above, if you’re paying for your phone on a Device Payment Plan and you have an active account with XFINITY Mobile, the phone you want to unlock must belong to a current XFINITY Mobile or Comcast customer. Your account must be in good standing as well.
If you’re paying for your phone on a Device Payment Plan but your account with XFINITY Mobile is inactive, the account must still be in good standing. Also, the primary account holder must be able to authenticate the disconnected account before the phone is eligible for unlocking.
NOTE: After your phone is unlocked, you are still responsible for making all the remaining payments on your Device Payment Plan.

Be Careful if you plan to order cheap LG phone and use the SIM card in your Verizon iPhone 6S/7. No one I have seen, has been able to get Visual Voicemail to work with the XM SIM on apple devices as of this month. If anyone knows different please add to wiki. Also, if you do this, there is no WiFi Calling and no personal hotspot.

100MB of free data is shared between all the lines in an account.

This thread collects strategies that SAVE TIME, even if the strategies cost money.

This is the opposite of strategies that take lots of time to save a few bucks. Instead, spend a few bucks, and save lots of time.

These strategies that may not be the absolute cheapest in direct monetary cost/savings, but represent a good balance of money vs. time/hassle/aggravation for those who don’t mind spending a little more money to save time, get good efficient service, minimize hassle, or free up time in your life for family/hobbies etc.

From the FWF thread on this topic it is clear that some people have strong views re whether it is moral to hire a maid, do your own laundry, clean your own gutters etc. But please, lets keep this thread focused on sharing strategies that save time with an emphasis on strategies that at first may seem expensive, but because they save significant time, are in fact good efficient strategies for people who value their time to pursue other activities (whether that’s making more money, exercising, reading to your kids etc).

This thread is not a place to share general household tips, or general money-saving tips etc. It is for time-saving tips, especially ones that cost money but are well worth the cost.

Maybe @tracfancier be able to shed more light on this.
AFAIK the phone is “hard locked” and therefore very difficult to unlock yourself.
The only way is to ask Tracfone for an unlock code.

It appears that there is a $200 Prepaid Visa card offer that requires only XFInity Internet and activation of XFinity Mobile except it will take up to 18 weeks which is 4.5 months. You do probably need to have received the physical offer letter in the mail for proof the offer in case you don’t get it and just to be save, you should keep the XFinity Mobile service active until you receive the promotion. I called the phone number on the letter yesterday even after my XFinity Mobile activation was done on September 9, 2017 and they said I qualified for the promotion since I had XFinity Internet service and also activated XFinity Mobile prior to the offers expiration as it does not list a offer begin date. They have added the promotion to my account and to suggested I keep the letter for reference until I receive the promotion reward.

Great thread OP.
This is very similar to how I did it years ago and bought a brand new car $2000 below sticker price.
One thing though, I would advise against is giving them your phone number. You will not have any peace of mind once they have your phone number.
The only time I gave them my phone number was when the deal was already finalized via emails and just before going to dealership to sign the papers and pay by cash.
I think they gave me that price just to see and talk to me after being frustrated for so long !

Maybe a “TD Go Card” which is a reloadable Visa Card
It’s basically designed for teens but FAQs say age 13 or over.

Thanks OP.
I have tons of drives.

@alexsj Might be a good idea for your friend to call and speak with a credit analyst about the denial.

Looks like the party’s over on this one. I tried to do the same thing (order 8 unsalted) and it’s now showing “maximum quantity: 2”.

That’s odd. I was just able to add 10 of the unsalted to my cart and they remained even on the secure checkout screen. Same thing for the 14oz cashew halves and pieces.

You’re right, I was able to add 8 to my cart just now. But it won’t accept my $10 off code.
At the risk of sounding thick as a brick, does it mean $10 off after you place 3 orders, or $10 off EACH of your first 3 orders?

To get $10 off it has to be your first order from Jet ( i.e. $10 off EACH of your first 3 orders starting with first order).
I was able to use the code only after opening another account in a family member’s name.
HTH

I wonder if anyone is using Sandboxie.
It’s a great little program with many uses.
It basically creates a virtual machine on the fly.
