Then some brush/pads etc. and of course a squash air freshener. Soon grimace will be clean.

Does Carzilla employees give recommendations on products?

I need some stuff but I’m not actually sure what I need.

$34 part that saved me the cost of a new 50 gallon water heater, a very difficult to find part but am very happy that I only spent $34 instead of $750+ to get hot water again. The thing almost looks alien in a way.

Great choice on the power lock. It goes great with Collinite 845. Best combo on top of any coating.

Yeah, the owner is very knowledgeable and would be able to give advice/recommendations.

Yeah, I am going to try that at least come fall time. Might try the dodo juice now and see how long it lasts.

Nice humble brag with your 200K minimum household income card!


(Just teasing you, this is pretty much par for the course in the wallet setup thread, lol)

As per the CC thread. Those are much closer to guidelines than hard rules. If you want to pay their stupid fee they will happily take your money.

For only $100 more in annual fees (after annual travel credit), I found the AMEX Plat was way better than the TD privilege card... and now it's metal so you can impress the grocery store cashier even more.

But, suffice it to say neither was really worth $400+/year for me... only the churning for points made it worthwhile.

My issue is no one accepts Amex lol, especially in Europe.

I have no interest in paying a big fee for a card I can’t use everywhere.

I also get a good chunk of the IP fee rebated which lowers my cost. I am pretty tied to holding at least some kind of Avion card until I drain my points balance down.

Unfortunately I actually spend enough on my visa to make the IP worth it over the infinite.

[Disoblige]

lol $200k household is a humble brag?
I'll stick with my $39/yr rewards CC thanks

Show me $200k cash sitting in your bank account and then ask Beyond what you should do with it would be a cooler humble brag

You're kinda tied to Aeroplan with the IP card, aren't you?

Mines the RBC card, so Avion. Which just got a lot better since there is no minimum 14 day booking period any more.

You can also convert to BA Avios a few times a year with a pretty decent conversion rate. I can also convert my points to WJ dollars as well but the redemption rate isn’t as stellar.

Not a perfect program, but flight redemptions are 2.2-2.9% back and you can book with any airline.

[ExtraSlow]

Avion is a good program, any airline, any flight.

[Buster]

I think the TD one is just aeroplan

[killramos]

I have redeemed for ~4,500 dollars in flights in the past year. It doesn’t reduce your cost to zero, but as long as you use it on flights that would have otherwise been expensive (750 ticket cost round trip within NA) it works out pretty good. That redemption is ~2.7% earnings per dollar spent on the card not including bonus point promos which raise the rate.
