I guess she is not entirely off, either. It's called that because it is the second division of an hour.

I understand, but the comment I replied to was implying that rent should somehow be less than mortgage plus insurance. My point is that under those circumstances, it doesn't make sense.

I am not sure why you think it should be any way else with our current systems, though. Asking less means the home owner is effectively paying for maintenance and upkeep entirely out of pocket, and entirely net loss for them. That said, I also don't think that means they need to price gouge and trying to make huge profits.

For similar reasons, I stopped ordering with any alterations at all. I used to customize order a little and they always messed it up. It's pretty rare that I go at all, but I figure that way it's the standard meal and they can just go in autopilot making it. Less disappointment when things go wrong

Use any flavor you like, there aren't any rules

Around here we just have little stickers on the produce with a code number on it. Most produce is just stacked with no packaging. You collect as many as you want in a bag. At the check out, the little code number can be used tell what the exact variety is.

This seems a lot simpler than lazer etching to me, but idk, maybe that is really cheap and easy too?

Thing is that it has been shown that the cost doesn't add up. Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 are both games you only pay the cost of the box, no on going subscriptions and they are able to continue running the servers and infrastructure just fine. 15$/mo just doesn't make sense.

I went through this a couple years ago. Decided Jeff Bezos does not need any more money, cancelled prime. Funny this was that most things ship the same as always, get them in like 2 or 3 days.

In fact, most other online retailers offer similar free 2 day shipping to stay competitive and I usually find stuff of Amazon first.

Can I ask why that is the case? I guess I hadn't heard that it was so difficult before

In the US, they are quite popular.

These examples didn't actually clear anything up for me 🙃
