I paid $2.59 a gallon for gas yesterday at costco, which is really really fucking cheap for LA.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I still have about $200 of the $300 I withdrew in March in anticipation of runs of cash at the ATM.

We get our cash from a teller.

Damn it, I just paid top dollar for an expensive European car about two weeks ago. If I had only known. We made our down payment about three and a half months ago.
Damn it, damn it, damn it.

It's easier now that everyone is wearing masks, isn't it? Can just walk right up and they don't suspect a thing.

Do you have an ATM card? Or do you need all C-notes?

Today, they wouldn't let us in a U.S. Bank lobby. We had to use the drive through. I had to renew an expired debit card so I thought I'd have to go through an indoor teller but they handled it at the drive thru window.
Wells Fargo lets us go inside.
We actually do most of our banking with Bank of America but haven't needed to use it since the virus hit so we don't know if they'll let us in the lobby or not.

Most tellers are fucking idiots, and people in line take too long to do shit, that's why I use the ATM

I know some car companies are helping out with interest and payment deferments. That probably doesn't help you because your brain is so large, dong is so big, and bank accounts are so well funded, obviously.

Yes, a large dong can be a handicap since I have to constantly beat off all the babes. Oh people, people, not that kind of beat off.

Electronic banking is so much easier!
I don't think Ive been in my bank for 3 years or so.

 

[HailBlazers]

all these retailers are like Yaya bailout time

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I tried out a new app for food pick-up called CHOWNOW. lots of curbside pickup and they don't inflate the menu prices like other apps do. Even got 25% off for curbside pickup tonight, so probably saved 20 bucks on dinner vs if I had food delivered

Will be useful for lunches.

 

[Orion Bailey]

I have to say this though. Shame on us for building an economical system all based off loans and debt.

I use to do that and saved on envelopes and check writing but my wife made me quit. She doesn't trust computers.

Mortgage is on pause til July. Car payments on pause til August.
Got my last Blazers check today. Filed for unemployment today.

We'll see if the state will start sending me money, cause I have NO work on my schedule until 2021 Olympics.

Maybe if they start up the regular season again you will get some work out of that?

Ya, I'm really hoping. And the Seahawks did contact me recently saying the NFL is expecting a "NORMAL" season, so I would at least get 4 preseason games in August. But how do they even know. Wishful thinking on their part I believe.

I paid $1.29 today. It's like the early 90's out there.
