Refrigerated section is one aisle over less than 20m away. No conceivable reason other than sheer laziness or malicious intent. - Yes I let staff know.

We both ordered on kiosks, he finished his order before I did. His was no. 6, mine was 7. My number got called earlier because wings and fries are always available. If anything, why get mad at ME? Ask the staff if you have a problem.

I just wanted a hot dog Decided to be a little extra today and add turmeric to my basmati. This microwaveable rice cooker was all white before.

Repost with more photos, stock images of what the cooker should look like, and detail since people think I’m lying for some reason?? This site is weird.

Anyway, I usually use this microwaveable rice cooker for single servings of curry. I added the usual 1/2 cup of basmati, 1 cup of water, and because I felt like adding flavor (I usually cook the rice plain), I sprinkled a generous amount of turmeric on top. Stuck it in the microwave for 8 minutes.

I don’t rinse my rice so it always bubbles up and leaves a starchy layer on the lid by the time it’s done. Those bubbles also carried the turmeric up, coating the entire inside and around the rim where it got underneath the lid.

Turmeric is used as a commercial grade natural food coloring for yellow in American foods, and I completely forgot about that when I added it in. Probably should’ve made it stove top…

Side note: I just realized looking for the stock images that I’ve been using the lid wrong all this time. That’s what I get for obtaining kitchen tools through Buy Nothing. 😅

The other day I picked up my son from school and a couple guys who were putting flyers on doors came up to me and asked if I wanted a roof estimate. They told me I didn't have to buy now but I could use it as reference for when the time comes. I say sure why not and schedule a time for someone to come over.

The guy comes over and questions if I'm the homeowner. He tells me I look 15. After telling me the process of what he will be doing to get the estimate he asks me if I have time today to look at samples for the estimate. I say yes.

He then asks me if my father or brother could be present for the estimate.

My ring camera cuts out but he explains that he has daughters and they come to him with questions about stuff like this and that it would be better to have my dad or brother present to ask questions I wouldn't think to ask myself.

At this point I do not want to work with this company anymore, so I just say sure and he gives me his buisness card to give him a call to schedule an appointment when my father or brother are avaliable.

I didn't end up getting an estimate.

Edit: Please don't review bomb or harass the company or the person in this video. That is not something I advocate for or want.

I just wanted a hot dog Walmart made me pay over $100 for their mistake

Post image
21.3k Upvotes

I ordered 2 half gallons of chocolate milk. Here's what Walmart's system said I was being substituted. I noticed before the delivery arrived and tried several different avenues for support. Everywhere, including the multiple real people I talked to, said I had to accept the order and be charged first, and then I could ask for a refund. They made it sound like it could be immediately put through as soon as the order was completed. Nope. When I called after, they said the refund would take up to 10 days. In hindsight I should have just rejected the entire order.

Edit to add: Only 2 gallons of chocolate milk were delivered. Also I really didn't want to reject the order because it contained a prescription that my daughter really needs.

Edit 2: The refund had already hit my bank account! .... for one gallon. 🥲

Edit 3: Talked with support again, agent says billing department needs to review and approve the full refund but that it should happen within the day, and she gave me an additional $25 dollar apology refund to my card. Here's hoping tomorrow show the correct refund amount.

Edit 4: Walmart just called me back and they've put the correct refund amount through. Yay!!! I checked and it's already showing in my bank account. I was also informed they have people working on figuring out how it happened and how to fix it from happening again.

Edit for FAQ: Kiddo is really inconsistent in how much chocolate milk she drinks, and unopened milk stays fresh longer. Two half gallons tends to result in less waste than 1 whole gallon. I don't like throwing food away and thought the small extra charge worth it.

As for declining the substitution, I checked the app as soon as I received the text notification of a substitution, and the app said it was too late: The substitution had been auto-accepted and the delivery was on its way. Walmart doesn't let you decline substitutions on deliveries once the order is being checked out. Email notifications show a whole 4 minute window in which I could have decline supposedly, but alas, I thought relying on text would be sufficient.

As a very rare indulgence on a special occasion, I ordered an expensive 30-year old scotch at a bistro-type restaurant. Waiter returns with a juicy lime wedge on the lip of the glass. I quietly asked for one with no lime. Waiter returns with a fresh drink "as a courtesy" , but seems intent on embarrassing me. " But just so you know.," he says., "all drinks ordered neat are properly served with a citrus garnish."

She responded and said that since we're in the same city for the first time in awhile, we should get lunch! I said yes and we decided on a place. Then this happened. At some point this morning I remembered she did this to me once before, years ago. Ffs

I just wanted a hot dog Some a-hole ran over my mailbox today...

Thumbnail

20.4k Upvotes

I was just starting to make dinner when we heard a loud crashing noise. Its been windy, and I thought another branch had fallen on the roof... Nope - as soon as I walk out the front door I see the sideways tail-lights & the car against the tree.

​

I immediately call emergency services and the spouse runs out to see about injuries. By the time we get out the gate others had also stopped and were also calling emergency services about the accident.

​

No one was injured - probably due to the airbags - but the occupants really didn't want the cops to show up & asked us just to call a tow truck and get their insurance info. But it's a busy country road, so the cops were notified by several passers-by before these sorry dudes even made their request. Dudes were hot-dogging down the country road in a fast car & lost controlnin a singe-car accident. Witnesses saw him driving recklessly. Dude plowed through my (and the neighbors!) mailbox and then were stopped only by trees on my property. If those trees weren't there, he'd have hit the neighbors house. There's no way the cops weren't coming to this one.

​

As we were waiting, we were kinda keeping an eye on them, 'cuz TBH they seemed sketchy & I was afraid that they'd just take off and abandon the vehicle. Just a few minutes later, the cops did show. It was kinda surreal to see - dude say's "hello officer..." and then we immediately see some object very conspicuously fly through the air into the foliage near the car - and then proceed to hit like every branch in a bush on the way to the ground... Subtlety was not this dude's strong point.

​

Whatever it was, it wasnt heavy - prolly drugs; but it didn't seem like a gun or anything. The officer obviously saw too, and made them find it & hand it over. Alfter they got the car on the tow truck, the driver was arrested. They asked if I wanted to pursue criminally, but I fugure that the repercussions from this one are gonna be repurcussion enough - their beautiful.car was toraled. The cops left and they lefy the passenger there on the side of the road to fend for himself, until someone eventually picked him up.

​

But I gotta clean up this mess that someone else created because they were effing around and acting stupid. I guess my day off tomorrow will now be filled with buying & installing another mailbox. I really hope we don't need to take these trees down, but we'l need an arborist to take a look. :/

For context I am homeless and staying at her house at the moment, which I’m very grateful for. In return, I’m buying 90% of groceries among other things but she always puts more food in her plate or finishes stuff without asking if I want some. I feel bad for posting this but yeah it’s a bit frustrating.
