Pleats-much more styling with the pleats!
Edit:  I have always been a pleats tuxedo shirt guy but I am old so factor that in to my above comment.

You definitely roam in rarified air.  What kind of watch do you wear with a Tuxedo, or can you even wear a watch with one?

If you're going to wear a dinner suit, wear a dinner shirt = pleats.

While I appreciate the insight on getting pleats @lousubcap and @Eoin, current trends have flat front shirts ahead of pleated. I honestly don’t care and am letting SWMBO pick one out and pick it up.

was going to mention that ive worn them but never picked them out. maybe because then there would be no tux. then theres the cheap plastic shoes that dont fit if you are renting.....

Pleated?

Just ordered a Kindling Cracker King  XL for $50 off.  I love my regular but it's just a tad too small too often.  The XL looks to be quite a big bigger.

30 dollars off the XL and discount code for another $20 off: 278109

I've seen that, and if it had come out 2-3 years ago when my daughter was more into Lego we might have one.  The last big set she got was about 5 months ago, and no work has taken place in about 4.  Plus, surface space to put them is an issue.

Costco trip. Sure doesn’t feel like over $500.

Has anyone ever bought some really nice steak at a great price, and put it in the freezer. Then you have another reason to go back to the grocery store, and see the same deal ... but an even nicer looking pair of steaks ... and you're like, oh mannnnnnnn .... I have to get that, but where the heck am I going to squeeze them into my overfilled freezer ... so you put the package back down, and you're like very sad ... like almost angry ... and the feeling doesn't go away?

Yeah, that just happened to me.

Nope.  That is when you buy another freezer.

I have 3. I think I'm lower than the Egghead average.

I'm debating if I need to buy more freezers or just invest in:

More useful for the upcoming nuclear war. Assuming you have sufficient water purification to rehydrate it.

I would freeze-dry plenty of water to re-hydrate.

Does 3 include your standard fridge freezer?

My mother in law has one.  Capacity isn’t the best she is almost always doing something.  We have a few meals in a bad she sets them up like MREs.  She’s had it since like November only things I’ve had was some yogurt bites she makes for her grand kids.  Some freeze dried strawberry’s and mangos, and some icecream.  It’s pretty nest kind of noisy.  Hers is in her den off the kitchen on a buffet it’s not bad if the door is closed.

15 cu ft manual defrost whirlpool. $299 from Costco.

That’s a bargain, considering how hard freezers are to get right now!

It will definitely do that, but got it for splitting wood for the fireplace.  Got tired of using the fill size axe for that.

Yeah it was a good price. Now I can sell my extra garage fridge that I was using mostly as a freezer anyway. 

Costco trip tomorrow and I won't have to wonder if I'll have room.

Trying to buy one of these. Received two so far, from different online dealers, and both were damaged though the boxes were fine. Too heavy for the quality of the packaging.

Can’t find any locally.

Thank you @nolaegghead for pointing me to these suction things. They are a nice addition in my line of work. At least I think you were the one who mentioned these.

Those are sweet, I’ve wanted them for a while.  You get the H, pro or Nemo?
