Did you get the new Blink cameras or the first gens? I’m curious to hear how it goes, because the new ones have a lot of mixed reviews.

It’s rarely a good idea to trade in your phone. eBay is likely your best bet.

yeah, I've kicked that around. I thought about doing that but there's a minimal amount of screenburn at the top. Even if I were to get $40-50, I'd probably be ok with it.

Also thought about keeping it around in case of an emergency, in case my phone were to break or if I were to drop it in water/snow. The first option isn't very likely since it's in an Otterbox and I'm reasonably careful with it, although there are times where it has fallen off my treadmill, hit the belt at 7-8 mph, and launched across the room.

They're the XT2's, so I'm assuming the new ones.

I did notice a few people shitting on them in the reviews, saying that they were disconnecting all the time and coincidentally they weren't picking up the motion in the targeted area. I went with them because they were truly wireless and supposedly could go two years without changing batteries. I tweaked a few settings that effected battery life, so even if I get a year out of them, I'm ok with that.

I thought about getting one for my backyard, but the reviews swayed me. That and I’d have to manage another system, since I already have a Ring Pro. You’d think that Amazon would just integrate the two since it owns both, but no. I don’t like how bulky the Ring security cameras are.

Hey maction jackson, what's the protein content on this chickpea milk (assuming it's completely dairy free)...? Any idea? Also, does it taste like snot?

8g per 1 cup. It's not terrible, the original flavor. They have a vanilla and Chocolate flavor which have more sugar, obviously, but taste much better.

Its called Ripple, BTW.

My first thought was "Ripple like the wine?" And then I hit the Google and read that Ripple was discontinued in 1984. And then I felt very old.

We use ours quite a bit. Def comes in handy.

I haven't gotten the allure for instant pot. I have a Farberware branded one. It takes like 20 minutes to get to pressure then cook.

Some nights like tonight, I get home from work and don’t want to wait 2 hours for a roast to cook. If I could do it in half the time, that would be great.

I guess if I'm making a roast I don't want to wait an hour for it to cook either. So I'll crock pot. Or joule

we just got a Ninja Foodie. story: we ordered one refurbished from Woot for $80. when it arrived one of the handles was broken so we called Woot. they said they (understandably) didn't have anymore. if we kept it they'd refund us $15 and give us $10 off our next order of whatever. well, ok. my SO decided to go straight to Ninja to see if they could send us a new handle. Ninja told her they don't do that but if we were willing to pay $25 for shipping they'd send us a NEW one so now we have a BRAND NEW Ninja Foodie for $80.

My sisters and I bought our mom the 6.5qt Ninja Foodi when it was an Amazon Deal of the Day at $119.

My MIL has a ninja foodie also, and the wings she made the one night in that thing were the bomb dot com

Wal-mart and Sam's Club will be closed on Thanksgiving, perhaps reduced hours on Black Friday?

Good for them

It would be nice if they stayed open until 10pm now.

Long time eBayers, there is a coupon in your eBay inbox. Ends 9/10 but there isn't a notification for it so many folks are missing it.

$25 off of a $25.01 spend.
