Free ice cream Frozen milk krap cone at DQ! Some kind of anniversary.?

Fixed that for you  :)

Think you were being too kind. Is it even frozen milk crap?

From the DQ website:

Vanilla Soft Serve
Milkfat and nonfat milk, sugar, corn syrup, whey, mono and diglycerides, artificial flavor, guar gum, polysorbate 80, carrageenan, vitamin A palmitate.

 :P

That is disgusting and people continue to eat that sh!t.

sugar, corn syrup, and whey are fine, in moderation.

Just got in a Garmin VIRB action camera, on sale for $119.00 at Costco.ca



This basic model of the VIRB was discontinued but gets good reviews:

Especially good as a bicycle cam apparently.

^Ive had one for a couple years, not this exact model, wouldn't be without it.  I mounted it permanently to our lower level deck.  Have to be careful in strong winds though.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

Good quality? There was one at HD for 350 but reviews were awful. Can't find reviews on the Costco one.. But it is Costco.

I assume its easy to retract for those windy days.

Anyone got a view on these? Cantilever umbrella from Costco.

http://www.costco.ca/.product.100140141.html?cm_sp=RichRelevance-_-itempageVerticalRight-_-MultiItemViewCP&cm_vc=itempageVerticalRight|MultiItemViewCP



Looking for something similar that I can swing between the deck and over the hot tub. Must to be able to retract and collapse tho.

Quality is ok, about what you'd expect for $3-400.  Ours is from Home Depot.  Have to check fasteners every once in a while as they loosen on their own.  It rotates and you can change the angle of the umbrella from flat to upright to better block the sun.  It retracts easily.  We leave ours retracted and only extend it when we are using it.

Picked this pressure washer on the weekend for 119.00, seems like a pretty good deal:

Do you have the Hampton Bay one?
