Plus how to stop spam texts once and for all
A shopping miracle happened for me last night. I’ve been wanting to buy a portable griddle for car camping trips after having seen TikToker Stephanie Tea whip up some amazing breakfasts on hers. Tipped off by this Reddit thread, I followed its instructions to use a site called Brickseek to search for deals by SKU at my area Walmarts — and found the $217 griddle I wanted on in-store clearance for just $50 (!) at a Walmart nearby. I’d never used Brickseek before, and I doubt I’ll ever find a deal that good again, but I do think it’ll continue to be super helpful for checking stock before making a trip to one of the big box retailers (it also has inventory-checking capabilities for Target, Home Depot, Macy’s and more). Check it out, and good luck out there. Janie |
