I get that, but that's a different level. Reminds me of the joke where store manager watches his sales guy selling male customer fishing hooks, line, rod and reel, net, waders, bag, fishing license and later a boat and a quad; only to later learn the customer came in to get feminine product for...

I'm wondering how it affects store's profitability to have so many (cheaper) products not only in stock but also taking floor/shelf space. It's most def nice to walk in and check out all the stuff and walk out with what you need, but... Look at stores like BestBuy - very little to choose from...

I lived in apartment buildings in the past, not new buildings thou. Managers would allow doing oil changes and minor work on cars in a carwash designated area in underground parking as long as they were left as clean as before work. The most I did was timing belt change on '97 Jetta beside oil...

Did you order it as a replacement or another copy? You may want to check with DMV on legality of having 2 physical cards.

I normally make a list per store and stores are arranged in order of driving direction, saved in ColoNote phone app. I can delete item/items as I get them or add something if I forget or wife wants something, can delete entire list too. Sure, sometimes I see something I like and grab it or treat...

Thou it's not gonna be about gas itself but the greatest effect I personally saw was when using Redline SI-1 in gas compared to Regane and even Super Concentrated Techron that I used to buy in US. With Redline it felt that engine ran smoother, was more responsive and there was a substantial gas...

.22lr ammo prices can be in very wide range. There is bulk ammo that's on cheaper side and there is match ammo that can cost more than 5x. Semi autos may not like some ammo so one needs to test a few brands and varieties. Bolt guns are usually more forgiving but if accuracy and consistency is...

When was the oil made? It may have been stored outdoors for long while before it was sold.

Japan is quite a different world. Been there 3 times. The fact leaving (or trying to) tips at a restaurant would be offensive says a lot. But, in general I thought of them as honest considerable 'children' who were nuked twice and then were given 'an offer they couldn't refuse'.

Imho, regardless how long they knew each other before getting married, the lady made poor choice tying her life with him. The guy should/would keep his winnings as marriage was formally over, but she should've stopped supporting him financially and possibly get some alimony money back from him...

My local bottle depot takes used coolant as well as oil, check a few around you. I got a generic copy of that funnel at local discount parts store, it makes coolant changes a breeze.

They didn't cover on shortages of fertilizer and potential food shortages? That would be a real story.

That's the reason front rotors and pads are larger. During hard braking vehicle weight shifts to the front so rear tires lose effective traction anyway. This effect is more evident with vehicles with high center of gravity (taller ones). Also, that's why you can see motorcyclists can do...

Errr, never heard or thought of a fake plate? Stolen plate?

IDK, I saw substantial and very concerning difference in used oil on my Sportage with 4k mi on oil vs 5k mi (6k km vs 8k km) and after I made my mind to stick with 4k mi OCI I never looked back. Sure it happens I run a couple hundred km over that interval; and sometimes I do oil change a bit...
