I actually got another one of these before the deal ran out. Seems rare for me!

I actually got one before it reverted back to the regular price.

I misread the sign yesterday when I was in Lowe’s. I thought it was save $5 OFF $500 and I thought “Big Deal, 1% discount”. Doh!

I realize I’m not too smart but I’m seeing 10% not 20%. Something else I must do or offer reduced?

@ctcarl It was $3.30 plus $1.30 for postage = $4.60 less the $3 discount for a TOTAL of $1.60 shipped. Received mine a day late (Priority mail) .

I bought the 6 forever stamps posted elsewhere. Not as almost free as others but still deal for me.

Just grabbed this. I rarely mail things but working out to .27 cents per stamp I figured why not.

I just sort of figured out the formula and created a really simply spreadsheet and it looks even with adding the prior months Interest into the principal and compute the next month interest on increased balance it still is less at the end of 12 months than the CD. I guess I needed a reminder of the definition of “APR”

I readily admit I’m not the smartest person AND I’ve attempted to research the question. Please be gentle. In any case…a person wants to compare how much interest would be earned/paid when comparing a Savings Account vs 1 yr CD. Say a Savings Account shows 2.2% vs. High-Yield 1 yr CD of 2.75%. Both compound daily yet the CD only pays the interest at the end of the term and the Savings Account credits/deposits the earnings monthly. Presume money won’t be needed for the term of the CD so gut response would be buy CD for higher yield. However, I feel the compounding effect of the Savings account, each month increasing balance, would reduce the benefit of the slightly increased interest rate. I’ve attempted to find a formula to compare but have been unable to do so. Perhaps I’m not seeing how to look at this but really I’ve tried. Even broke out the spreadsheet and played. Thoughts?

First tablet I ever bought was a Hisense Sero 7 pro from WalMart. I believe they were the exclusive vendor for the product and sort of equated Hisense with WalMart like Insignia with Best Buy. Worked great until one day it wouldn’t power up. Still have it and will explore further at some point (already checked battery).
