The Keurig knock off has a filter for regular ground coffee. I’ve just gotten lazy. I literally only have 6 months of K-cups only bc I have given so many away. That said, my favorite dumpster for coffee has recently put up no trespassing signs so I am avoiding it. The signs aren’t well attached and I’m hoping they fall down in a rainstorm and they forget to put them back up.
An annoying thing about dumpster diving is that some of the people doing it are functioning at a pretty low level and leave big messes. I understand why a store would become frustrated by that. I leave those areas cleaner than when I found it, but that’s not everyone. Plus even just a raccoon can make a serious mess.
I think Econ has the same brand as mine (WalkingPad) but a different model…I have the P1, but I think it’s discontinued. I went with the one that had the longest deck, which I definitely recommend because the decks on walking pads are all quite a bit shorter than a standard treadmill, and if they are too short it will mess with your stride.
Yeah I have the walking pad brand C2 model. I have not had any problems with the deck being too short for my stride. I’m 5ft 6.5in. I got that model because I needed the front to be short enough to fit under my desk, which only had a 5in clearance. I love it!
Did you consider any cheaper pads, like the GoPlus 2 in 1?
I’ve been texting Econ about it and it sounds like she reasonably needed one for a lot of use, but I don’t think I’d be as hard on mine. My use case would be 30ish mins here and there, not the work day. I can’t decide if the extra sturdiness is worth a few hundred dollars!
I did! I have a coworker who has one of those GoPlus ones, and it lasted about 1.5 yrs for her, walking like 20,000 steps a day, every single day. So I think your use case would be perfect for that option! I ended up deciding against it because the deck was too short (I’m 5’10" and have a super long stride) and I like the foldable option of the WalkingPad brand
I’m currently walking laps around the house at night for about a half hour - does a half hour of walking warrant the pricier walking pad? Also I have the space that I don’t need it to fold. But also - that is a pretty sweet feature.
I know there are some Hoka fans on the forums. They are clearancing out their old model Bondi for $115 right now, which is a pretty great deal considering they almost never go on sale. Just wanted to give a heads up!
Trying to decide if I should get another blanket/coverlet for the guest bed to swap it out when the cat pukes (sadly often). I’m kind of specific on appearance/texture because it’s 50% of the view in my office, and we nap on it.
Alternatively could use ratty old blanket as a thickening/protective layer under the one I have (and like). And risk either the fleece, muslin, or sheets during laundering.
Long-term alternative could be to thrift (and then wash on hot)? I want something thin enough to launder easily, not comforter or quilt. But maybe thick enough to protect sheets… And again, very particular on Looks. (Beige/earth/water/plants palette)
They are very nice! Quite light weight, which is what I wanted. The pockets have a really wide opening that I was worried about, but they are quite deep even in the women’s, so my phone hasn’t fallen out of my pocket yet.
