It varies more from store to store by region than between chains, in my experience. All the stations in a town will be within a few cents of each other, and could be 20-30 cents different just a few towns over. Also, if you’re road tripping, venture a few miles off highway and you can often find much cheaper gas than…

I’ve done the 2k trip from CO to MA a few times, and I always break it into 3 driving days so I’m pretty much only driving during the day. It makes the trip somewhat enjoyable, and if I wanted to get there as fast as possible I’d just fly.

I was always a staunch supporter of having two sets of tires (I do for my wife’s ST, actually) but I went with all seasons for my Jetta and you know what, they are pretty damn adequate all year around. After a couple years of treadwear probably not so much, but at present I can plow through a foot of snow on flat…

My wife is a year or two from having a paid off FoST. Based on her reaction to the video above, I see a visit to the Ford dealer in our future.

Just clean the whole car off.

Of course, even if you don’t win, your money isn’t just going into a black hole:

My wife was telling me one of her coworkers said he’d immediately leave his wife if he won. These are nice people with a kid, that seem to get along well. I just don’t get it with some people.

Yeah I’d go for this.

I wonder if there will be some kind of mileage limit or something. I own a 2013 Jetta TDI and drive well over 25k a year; depending on how long they take to get the fix to market I could have over 100k on my car by then.

This is why I pretty much always go to the theater that allows you to reserve your seats at purchase. No worries about sitting in the front row, no having to arrive super early. You just show up whenever you feel like it and the seat is waiting for you. You don’t even have to pay for the seat until you know you can…

When I’m making chicken I usually alternate hands to avoid excessive washing. E.g. use my right hand to handle the meat (heh) and my left to apply spices/hold the knife/etc.

Panic braking takes another victim.

I have a Hubsan H107C that sells around the same price. This size quad is great for beginners to learn the basics of RC flight before moving up to (and hopefully not crashing) a more expensive model. I’m not sure how the Syma flies, the Hubsan is very nimble and easy to maneuver inside the house (and outside in a calm…

My guess is US-36, but I can’t pinpoint it

There is some irony in an ethics professor requiring you to buy his $500 textbook in order to attend his class.

We went FHA when we bought last year due to being short on cash. Fortunately our realtor and mortgage brokers explained everything so we knew pretty much exactly what we were getting into. The house has gone up in value almost 30% in the last year, so our plan is to re-appraise in a few months and refinance to get rid…

The new ones are LED, the older ones are incandescent. From what I understand, the older incandescent ones are a bit more of a ‘pleasant’ light quality as it dims down. I have a newer one and notice a little bit of flicker and the orange sunset-style light just seems a tiny bit off due to it not being a true black…

I had work email on my phone for years; best thing I ever did was to delete that account. Boss can't say anything because she refuses to subsidize our phones.

I suppose... but you could add some nuisance armor without adding much weight to the cable itself... akin to a piece of MC cable.

Why not use a version of the armored cable as seen on payphones that is resistant to bolt cutters?
