We have been buying extra strong PG Tips British tea from Amazon because we think American tea is way too weak. 3 boxes of 80 were about $40 last time I bought them a few months ago. They’re now $80. Thankfully we discovered we can get an order of 6 for $60, but we have to wait until mid-February for the to arrive. Meanwhile, a single box of the same tea, which we'll have to get in the mean time, is $20. Yes, a single box is less per box than a 3-count box order, but you still save if you buy 6 boxes. How does any of that make sense?

this thread makes me think we need a 'help me find this' kinda of community...

i remember a reddit sub helped me find a sweater i really wanted and had spent weeks searching for.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (3 children)

There actually is a HelpMeFind community (https://lemmy.ml/c/helpmefind), although it's dead at the moment. I agree it's be good to have it up and running.

I used to have a multi Reddit set up which grouped various subs all about helping people either identify things (songs/movies/books/random objects they'd found/etc), find them online to buy, or discover new related stuff (If I Like This), it was quite fun and obviously it helped people. Also meant I discovered a LOT of music that I really liked, but would probably never have heard of.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Oh man, speaking of sweaters, it's hard as hell to find decent used men's cashmere sweaters and even the cheaper new ones are $80-100. And that's if you want one that's a pattern-free one color boring sweater. I have like four nice looking cashmere sweaters with a sensible pattern on them that I've had since probably the early 2000s that I barely even wear anymore because I love them so much and I can't find a decent replacement for them even the last time I looked on eBay (this may have changed, but I don't have the money to spend right now). I guess I just have to wait for them to come back in style.

Do you have Nordstrom Rack near you? They often have new cashmere marked down to 20 or 30 bucks.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

We don't even have a regular Nordstrom. This is Indiana. We don't cotton to that them there fashionable clothes. We wear overalls and duck camo.
