2016 Catch All Thread
I'm in the market to buy a leaf blower, and I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations. I'd prefer to not pay more than $150. Consumer Reports seems to rate a few electric models with the best overall ratings, but I was thinking going more with gas powered. Are battery operated ones worth looking into? Anyone make a purchase that they really like? Thanks!

2015 - 2016 Bowling Season
Our season started this past Friday. We went 5-2, losing the middle game by 6 measly pins. Started off strong with a 227 and a 213. First few frames of the 3rd were rough for me, but things turned around, and had 3 strikes going into the 10th. Of course, I get my first split of the night, and ended the game with a 189. 629 series in the first week is a great start.

Best HBO Series of All Time
QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 29, 2016 -> 04:32 PM) I'm surprised so many people love Eastbound and Down, I enjoyed the first season but the schtick got old for me. Agree 100%. This was a tough choice for me as well, as The Wire, Sopranos and GOT are 3 of my all time favorite shows. I ended up voting for The Wire.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 03:32 PM) Use Redfin, it was quicker than my realtor's feed and the alerting system is top notch. It made the looking part SOOOO much easier. Ok, thanks, I'll give Redfin a try. I had mostly been using Zillow, Realtor.com and Trulia.

2016 Catch All Thread
Looking for a house sucks. I thought finding a house would be so much easier than actually finding someone to buy ours. Nope. For the past 2 weeks, I've been scouring all the real estate sites/apps. Everything we like in our price range is already in contingent status. Our agent told us that the good ones are flying off the market within a day. Very frustrating.

Ticketmaster free tickets from class action lawsuit
I lost all my free tickets, too. And this message now appears on the page: UPDATE JUNE 21 1:35 AM EDT In 2003, the Schlesinger v. Ticketmaster class action lawsuit was filed alleging that Ticketmaster failed to fully disclose to consumers all aspects of its UPS and Order Processing Fees. While vigorously defending the lawsuit, Ticketmaster settled the case in 2013, with the court granting final approval of the settlement in February 2015. The settlement class includes all consumers who transacted on Ticketmaster.com from 1999-2013. As part of the settlement, Ticketmaster agreed to provide all members of the class a $2.25 credit on the future purchase of primary tickets for each transaction over the class period, for up to 17 claims. In addition, a $5 UPS voucher was made available to members of the class who had used UPS delivery during the class period, again to a maximum of 17 claims. Also Ticketmaster agreed to provide $5 million in ticket vouchers for select Live Nation concerts through May 2017, subject to availability and a cap of 17 claims per account. Given the tremendous initial interest for these tickets, Ticketmaster will increase to $10 million its allotment of tickets made available through May 2017. The potential for additional tickets will be based on the redemption rates of the discount and UPS vouchers.

Vacation/Travel Thread
QUOTE (kevo880 @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 11:05 PM) Yeah, sucks the weather is so unpredictable there. Did you happen to go to Silver Beach Pizza? My wife and I are bringing her parents there for the first time in a couple of weeks. It's weird how touristy it has gotten in the last 5-10 years. Growing up there it was just like any other small town. It is nice though that wineries and breweries are popping up all over the place. Yea, we went there and did enjoy it. I remember the wait to get in was pretty brutal, so we got a little toasty at the bar while waiting.
