I have started buying books and notebooks etc at my favourite bookstores instead of the cheaper version at Amazon.
I really donβt think that the world gets better if I support someone buying a mega yacht (while treating the people who work for him like garbage).
Dyson vacuums are crap. Pretty much any bagged or canister vacuum will beat them in every category.
I agree, unless you are talking about dyson cordless vacuums, they are always on top in just about every real word test ive seen for consumer grade cordless vacuums.
Dyson fans too. Cheap fans are quieter and produce more airflow.
People complain about Banks screwing them over with fees and caring more about investor profits all the time. But few people move their money to credit unions or other co-operatively owned financial institutions. Usually it's because of some minor inconvenience.
The thing with a CU is it's great until something goes wrong. Although anecdotal, these are all real world trouble I've had with ours: 1) Need to have safe deposit box drilled. Took over 6 months to get it scheduled and repeated visits to the branch manager. 2) Had a double post of a debit. Not a biggie, but no 24 hour customer service (or weekend service unless you come in person). Had it been fraud or a huge double post I would have been out of luck until the next business day. And would likely have had to go in person. 3) Ordering checks required an in person visit. 4) Changing out an old secondary signer for a new one required an appointment that took several weeks to book (apparently no one there works full time). 5) Interest on our money market is worse than the local big banks.
