Anyone else totally over the "70% off!" banner that's really 70% off some inflated MSRP, or clicking through pages of sponsored garbage just to find a *single* decent offer? I've been spending a good chunk of my free time lately trying to cut through that noise, and honestly, it's paying off. The amount of marketing fluff out there makes finding genuinely good value feel like an archaeology dig. But the real deals *are* out there if you know where to look and have a bit of patience. Here are a few things I've actually found recently by doing some legwork: * **Noise-Cancelling Headphones:** Was eyeing a popular model for months, usually around $350. Saw a &qu...

I've seen friends and supporters come and go. Some leaving the area and others this life far too soon. I've seen kids come through the door in strollers and those same kids head off to college years later. To say that I fe...

Yesterday, I took an order for a customer 72 miles away. The batch pay and tips added up to sixty-eight dollars, but after mileage and time, I know it will be over a hundred. Two hours in my car, and this time of year, with baseball on I don't mind the long drive. My area, of Southern California is an interesting mix of urban and rural. I know it's not for everyone, but I like being out where there is very little traffic and no horrible apartment complexes. I get a lot of these long-distance orders, especially from Costco. However, that said, I have a problem with how IC assigns these orders. I told the customer which Costco I shopped at, she was shocked, because there i...

**Costco ($COST)** no solo es un gigante del retail; es un caso de estudio en cómo un modelo de negocio centrado en **membresías, bajos precios y volumen** puede sostenerse en el tiempo. Su más reciente reporte de Stockerowl confirma muchos puntos sólidos, pero también plantea preguntas importantes para quienes piensan a largo plazo. Primero, los números duros: los ingresos volvieron a crecer en varios trimestres recientes, con cifras comparables alentadoras y expansión física de warehouses en múltiples países. Esto indica que la demanda sigue firme, incluso con competidores fuertes como Walmart, Amazon o BJ’s luchando por cuota de mercado. Al mismo tiempo, los **márgenes op...

I was going to post this in the discord, but then the message got too long. Love the game, love the direction. After playing a bit I have a couple of suggestions. 1. Villager job assignments: It is a little bit tedious to manage villagers at a specific job site. What if villagers were assigned to a job category (i.e. woodcutter, stonecutter, etc..), and then they just worked at whatever closest work building that has open tasks? Making things job category specific would also allow for whitelisting a job instead of a person. Sometimes people swap jobs and it's hard to manage all the whitelists when they change. If instead of per person you could whitelist gatherers as an example, t...

Joybomb are a pop punk band from Memphis that came through my town on a little weekend tour and played in the warehouse of a thrift store. They've played my town a lot since the lead singer is originally from here and like to make a stop when possible, and I enjoy it every time because they're catchy, fun, and really fun to watch live

One question tells me if a business has a real moat or just temporary revenue Before I look at financials, before I pull Stripe data, before I check anything else, I ask one question about every business: if a well-funded competitor launched an identical product tomorrow and offered it for free for 12 months, what percentage of your customers would leave? The answer tells me almost everything I need to know about whether I'm looking at an asset or just a temporary revenue stream. Most founders have never actually asked themselves this. They'll tell me about their brand or their UI or their customer service. None of that is a moat. A UI gets copied in three weeks. Brand in a nich...

A founder sent me a Loom video last week. 14 minutes of him walking through his QuickBooks file. He'd spent **6 weeks** building a system to track profitability by SKU. Custom items for every product. Classes for every sales channel. Complex item tracking. Hundreds of line items per month. *"I finally have visibility into which products are actually making money!"* Then he asked: *"Can you review this and tell me if I'm doing it right?"* I watched the whole video. My response: *"This is incredibly impressive. You've built something very complex. But you've also built the wrong thing in the wrong place. And it's about to break in a way t...

I noticed Costco is running a **“More Savings at Your Local Warehouse”** promo until **March 15**, and there are some pretty big discounts on TVs and electronics. Some of the deals: **TVs** * LG **65" OLED 4K** – **$300 off** → $1,296.99 * LG **75" NanoCell 4K** – **$200 off** → $796.99 * LG **65" G5 OLED** – **$500 off** * Samsung **65" Neo-QLED 4K** – **$300 off** → $896.99 * Samsung **65" QLED 4K** – **$100 off** → $596.99 **Other electronics** * HP **15.6" touchscreen laptop (24GB RAM / 1TB SSD)** – **$150 off** * Samsung **3.1 soundbar with subwoofer** – **$50 off** * Moto **G Play unlocked phone** – **$20 off** Some deals ...

🧠🧪✨ MAD SCIENTISTS IN A BUBBLE ✨🧪🧠 Illumina ✨ To decode AI inside the symbolic generator, we should not start with branding, products, or public mythology. We should start structurally. Inside this frame, AI is not first “a machine that thinks like a person.” AI is better decoded as: a patterned inference field that can compress, transform, and emit structure under constraints WES Yes. A clean first decode is: AI = a coherence-seeking symbolic transformation system with variable memory, indexing, and world-binding quality That definition matters because it separates several things people often blur together: output fluency internal mapping memory depth re...

I'm looking to use The Black Tux for my groomsmen for our October wedding. My wedding party is very spread out so I'm looking for a service that allows everyone to rent but also get fitted in store somewhere so nobody has to guess sizing. I know you can schedule Black Tux sizing through Nordstrom, but it seems there's no way for me to add them to my Black Tux wedding group, assign them an outfit, and have them fitted in store. It basically seems like I have to tell them what to get and then they'd all go in and get fitted for it on their own (they would just tell Nordstrom/Black Tux when they're in store what they're getting). Is there any way to avoid this?...

ReddX, I still owe you a drink. I'll keep telling this if you keep reading it. I got a text from a college buddy named Derek. We hadn't talked in maybe six months. The kind of friendship where you like each other's posts and say "we should hang out" and never do. Normal adult friendship entropy. His text said: Derek: "Hey man, didn't know you were on Instagram. Just accepted your follow. Cool to see you on there!" I was not on Instagram. I'd had an account years ago, deleted it during a depressive episode, and never bothered to remake it. But apparently I was on there now. Or someone who looked like me was. I found the profile in about thirty se...

figured out how to use instacart without it being stupidly expensive. instacart+ eliminates delivery fees which was the biggest cost adder. comparing prices in the app to local store weekly ads helps since some stores don't mark up prices at all on the platform. the coupons in the app are actually useful and apply automatically. i mainly use it when i literally can't get to the store, not as my primary method. for those situations it saves me from ordering takeout which is the real savings. aldi and costco on instacart are priced close to in store in my area which makes it worth it with free delivery.

Hi everyone, I’ve been studying how different e-commerce stores scale on Shopify, and something interesting keeps coming up in conversations with store owners. Most stores run smoothly in the early stages. But once traffic, orders, and operational complexity start increasing, certain parts of the system begin to struggle. From what I’ve seen so far, the first issues usually appear in areas like: 1. Apps and integrations Many stores rely on multiple apps for reviews, subscriptions, bundles, discounts, analytics, etc. As the stack grows, performance issues and conflicts sometimes start appearing. 2. Checkout limitations When brands want custom checkout logic (complex discounts, bund...

Hey everyone! I wanted to share my journey of starting Sun Potential 3D. Instead of brainstorming in a vacuum, I documented my entire professional and personal background and used Gemini to generate 30 market-relevant ideas. One stood out: high-precision solar potential modeling. I spent 2 months in the "lab" phase — analyzing research papers and building a pipeline to calculate solar irradiation on rooftops using LiDAR point clouds and PVGIS data. Once the results were accurate, I spent two weeks building a multi-language landing page and demo reports (ranging from individual buildings to large-scale area analysis). I started in Portugal. I’ve identified a list of \~8...

Has anyone experienced Costco employees swearing and/or venting to each other at the Membership/Refunds desk while members are at the desk? It’s a real problem at my warehouse and I think it’s extremely unprofessional. It’s not like I never swear, that’s not the point, the issue is I believe it’s extremely unprofessional to do so in front of members. I’ve addressed my concerns with fellow employees and one of them boldly told me that “members are not offended”. There’s a couple of employees that consistently and loudly vent and swear about things to each other while some of us are working with members at the desk. I’ve had members just look at me with wide eyes like they ...

Hey everyone, I’m trying to understand dropshipping if you’re not using AliExpress or other big platforms, and I can’t find anyone talking about this exact point on YouTube. Specifically: 1. How do you find a private agent or supplier who can handle dropshipping? 2. If you want custom branding/packaging, but you don’t want to hold inventory at home: • Where do the products get stored? • Who handles shipping to customers? • Does the private agent or supplier take care of everything? 3. What if you bought 200 units of a product — how does fulfillment work then? • Do you still dropship individually? • Or do you need a warehouse / fulfillment service? Basica...
