I also would have expected they were going under several years ago, but they really turned it around.
They optimized their store layout, generally have helpful staff waiting to guide you to the product, and their prices are competitive.

I’ve come to really distrust the Amazon co-mingled inventory, so now if it’s something moderately expensive I buy it either directly from the manufacturer or go to a store like Best Buy.

I can get in and out extremely quickly and efficiently. It’s a good in-store experience now.

And for whatever reason, their large appliance distribution seems to be better than Home Depot or Lowe’s. Refrigerators, deep freezers, washer, and dryer all came from Best Buy for cheaper and faster than anybody else.

It’s quite the comeback story - they could easily have gone the way of Circuit City.

Yea. I'm on allergy shots now and they have made a big difference. My allergies aren't even that bad compared to some. I think after a few years I can allegedly stop the allergy shots and be good to go.

Took me forever to figure out but I was getting vertigo and dizziness, and it turns out it was allergies. Since I have gotten on the shots I'm good to go.

ETA: One of my big allergies is some of the molds and it is a little disconcerting to see what I assume is mold floating in one of the vials I draw my shots from.

ETA 2: If you move, or even change practices sometimes, they will want to redo the allergy test before they give you any shots. I moved from Houston back to SELA and the drs here wanted to redo my tests before they started mixing vials. So just keep that in mind as well.

For the daily miles are they just more comfortable and less impact on the runner? Doesn't seem like that big of a deal? Also what are some of those shoes, is it just the two listed in the graphic?

I feel like under BK we did a relatively good job of this and coming into the season healthy.

Maybe healthy but they looked woefully unprepared at the start of every season under BK.

We used to live in the Houston area so this is probably relative to Texas specifically, but my neighbor owned a roofing business and he said USAA is among the worst to deal with during a claim, from their perspective. He said USAA, and I think State Farm, tried to deny, delay, litigate, and generally jerked the customer around worse than anyone else.

USAA won't offer me coverage here in St. Tammany, but when we were in Houston they were actually 2x to 3x the price of the rest of the competition which surprised me. I use them for car insurance though and they are significantly cheaper than anyone else I have looked at.

Yea but if they exist, I’d rather the credits bring jobs to Louisiana instead of other states. We need to keep adding to the momentum anywhere we can right now.

Keep stoking the economy and keep working on the education system (also apparently making great strides).

I’d love to get this info. I’m on borrowed time with one of my units, and another one that isn’t that old can’t seem to keep up.

I don't know much about Soccer, but I don't think the refs had anything to do with that. It reminded me of a few years ago when Vanderbilt was on a little run and that gay little DLineman from Vanderbilt ran his mouth about how Bama was next.... and then Bama beat them 59-0. We just didn't really look like we belonged with Belgium at all.

We have them at the entrances to and inside our gated subdivision. I'm not sure why that was deemed necessary. We live in a very low crime area.

Generally I am not a fan, but I'm also not taking an angle grinder to them in the middle of the night... but I am very uncomfortable with them inside my neighborhood.

We hated communist China so much we became them I guess.
