New England B.S. Thread

Didn't @m603holden cancel his order?

 

You have to call it "crema" and then people enjoy it. I have two Nespresso machines in my small kitchen. I may not have a microwave, but I've got two Nespresso machines! I call it pod coffee, but it's really not fair to Nespresso to call it that. I've been a customer for many, many years. The shipping used to be very good for me, I would get it the next day almost all the time, but not anymore, the shipping has really gone downhill. My standard order usually comes in 3 or 4 days. I have recently complained about it to them. If they are going to charge these prices for coffee it should come quicker than that. It comes from New Jersey for christ sake.

 

Sure did. And so didn't @Fitzwilly . They tried telling me the fog lights were custom lights and made to order by KC, and that no one else can get them any quicker.... I screen shot a whole bunch of dumbass comments from over 3 of their sales people.


Check the fog light thread. I think the fella who runs that's thread said a few shops are already getting inventory now.

 

You guys order directly from them? What about Amazon? I bought a sampler pack through Amazon today when I bought the machine. The prices on Amazon seemed cheaper than going direct through Nespresso but it could have been a Cyber Monday thing...

 

I have not found them to be cheaper through Amazon, check the price break down for each pod. Nespresso itself is a bit cheaper.

 

Next time I'm at our other work campus I'll have to take a picture of the massive nespresso machine we have in our cafe. I only go there on the weekends to the gym there and its in 'sleep mode' during the weekends because apparently the cafe workers keep it stocked with fresh milk but drain it on the weekends so it doesn't use bad milk.

 

Well, aren't they fancy?! Most of the regular, consumer machines are actually quite reasonable, I think I bought the highest end one they made at the time and it was $139 on a special deal. Of course they give you a deal, the machine ought to be free for what I spend on the pods.

 

Wow... they are considerably more expensive now! Mine was less than yours but no where near the high end of the ones they make. Seemed to be a 'middle of the road' model. I realized pretty quick that not all of them actually make a cup of coffee. Some of the small ones top out at a 5 oz. cup.

 

They sure are fancy. Demolished 3 existing buildings and put up 2 new buildings about a mile down the road from our existing campus.

 

Mine sells for $199 now which matches the very most expensive models that do not have milk frothing included. If it's a model capable of making the "coffee" size cups, they all have exactly the same internals and heat up time but what I bought was the largest water reservoir at the time, and I think it still is. Mine is the Evoluo machine. Actually just looked and it's cheap on Nespresso.com... $129. What did you get, Mike, the Virtuo Plus for $99?

 

Yeah, I got the VertuoPlus with the frother thingy-mabobber. It was $125 as a bundle and comes with some pods from what I gathered. Then, I got a variety pack of pods that was 50 for $35. We'll figure out what we like and go from there. I wanted one that could to the 14 oz. cups.

 

How was the trip? That is one nasty road in good conditions.

 

Well, the fun continues...
I cannot get an appt for the MRI, until it is approved by insurance.

I have been ganged up on, by everyone in the house(wife and 3 daughters.....) I'm not being allowed to do what I normally do.....

Boss and dispatch are being pretty cool about it... as of right now.

Of course, Tiff had to poke fun at me, and make a comment about... not so mad about not shifting your own gears now are you.....

Anyway...

So, decent tires should be here this week.
Need to get the breather relocated.

Need new CB, and all the gear....

Need a vacation....
