If you have the option you should buy your spices in bulk. Not only do can you get as small a quantity as you’d like but it’s way cheaper. Even when the price looks ridiculous ($50/lb for instance) I might be buying so little that it won’t register on the scale. The clerk then drops a dime on the scale and I end up…

“I don’t know why they call this stuff hamburger helper. It does just fine by itself, huh? I like it better than tuna helper myself, don’t you, Clark?"

I’ve heard of using alcohol too. Put the razor in a jar with the blade end submerged in alcohol. This displaces the water and thus makes the blade last longer. With most modern razors though (like torchbearer2 says) you’ll likely ruin the lube strip on the razor. I think with a safety razor it might make sense, but…

Who has a Casey Chan filter? I am done with this shit.

As the other answers say it depends on a number if factors; how long has it been open, what is the limit on it, etc. One strategy I’ve used to close excess accounts with little to no effect on my credit score is to ask the card company to consolidate your cards. Close one card but add it’s available credit to another…

One thing I’m a fan of with my pull up training (and figure would help with this type of thing — specifically while doing the towel pulls) is what I refer to as “working the ends”. When I’m doing pull ups I add extra movement at the top and bottom. While I’m still fresh I will lock out at the top and do side to side…

Did your testing look at accuracy? I’ve been curious how close to stated temperature these units get and how stable they are in terms of maintaining that temperature.
