AT&T Lies Part 1
“The promotion is no longer available.”
It’s right there on your website.
Here are some screenshots of the terms.
Maybe Hawaii is a “select location” where this promotion does NOT apply (any more).
Pulp
How Do I Do Cyber Monday?
By watching War Games on Netflix.
Would you like to play a game?

Gotta love seeing the old school tech in action and the youth of Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. I have to guess this 1983 movie was remastered since it looked decent on an HD television. The picture wasn’t pixelated or cropped or anything weird. It was HD quality of course but very passable and watchable.
I remembered the DEFCON level indicator looking cooler instead of a (big) horizontal traffic light signal. The only way to hack, obviously, is shirtless in bed surrounded by paper printouts. And what did David do to the pay phone to get a free call?
Bed, Bath, and Beyond Still Here?
Wait… Bed, Bath, and Beyond is still in Hawaii? I had thought they closed all their locations, but they have a Black Friday ad in the Star Advertiser.
And yes, the Pearlridge/Aiea location formerly known as Circuit City is still home to the last Bed, Bath, and Beyond in the 808 state.
The Vanishing Playstation 5
It’s simply amazing how fast the new Sony Playstation 5 sells out. No matter the vendor, no matter the venue, and no matter what time of day – the PS5 vanishes seconds after releasing.
Today, Walmart advertised that they would be restocking the PS5 for an early Black Friday. I refreshed the product page for the digital version and saw the message sold out. That was within 10 seconds! But really, it seems like the digital version released after the disc version and wasn’t available right at the designated time.
These COVID times are definitely crazy times!
Peach Crown Royal Is a Thing?
I wouldn’t know, but it seems like the limited edition peach-flavored Crown Royal is ver popular and very hard to find. I guess there was a release in February 2020 and that was it for the year?
Intrigued…
I Am a Closet Swiftie?
I must be a closet fan of singer Taylor Swift. Otherwise, I don’t know how to explain this purchase of an autographed copy of the “in the trees” CD.
I mean I didn’t even think twice. Autographed, bonus songs, different covers, and supposedly limited supply (even though there’s a limit of 4 CDs per order). I do like the Folklore album so perhaps Taylor’s music spoke to me during these COVID times. Or maybe, just maybe, I have a weak mind.
Close But Not Quite…
Walking around Ala Moana, I spied these Crocs that looked suspiciously like the recently released Crocs collab with the Grateful Dead, Bad Bunny, and Justin Bieber. Here are the legitimate Crocs clogs.
Here’s what I saw at Famous Footwear and Nordstrom.
Tie-dye, yellow, and a white Crocs sans jibbitz were in store, but really, the appeal is those custom charms. That’s why all these Crocs collabs sold out so fast.
Better than the McD Travis Scott Meal?
If more equals better then could this be “better” than the Travis Scott meal from McDonalds in terms of Calories?
Yes, that’s a typical chocolate muffin from Costco, and it weighs in at roughly 689 Calories. Now according to the McD app, this is the Calorie count for a default Travis Scott meal.
Featuring a quarter pounder with added bacon, medium fries, and a medium sprite, the meal tops out at 1280 Calories. So no, in this case, the Costco muffin is NOT better than the Travis Scott meal.
But compared to a lone Big Mac, an entire Costco muffin is mightier.
McD Travis Scott Meal $7 in Hawaii
Athough touted as a $6 combo for the McDonalds x Travis Scott meal, Hawaii residents are paying a $1 more.
Will that $7 price tag deter you from that 1150-calorie meal?
Increase of McD Crew Applications?
I wonder if this tidbit will cause a surge of applications for crew members at McDonalds?
However, as part of the collaboration, McDonald’s workers will also receive custom T-shirts made by Scott’s label Cactus Jack.
Rona Relaxing
Just kicking it on a Sunday afternoon during these Rona times…
Yup, I managed to get a pair of the KFC Crocs collab!
