Your Good Buy Of The Day (Part 1)

Found an abandoned 61 key Yamaha electric piano on the street in my area a few nights ago.

Finally had a chance to test it using a compatible adapter(same voltage/amperage as original) from an old router.

It works!! Not bad considering a used one will go for ~$70 in my area.

^^That’s cool, and you found a way to get rid of the old power adapter. :slight_smile:

I currently have a Charge and they are sending an Alta. I was told the only thing I will lose is the stair climb number. I know I am good on that as I frequently walk up to my 11th floor office and my neighborhood is hilly so I get a lot when I run or walk.

Update- H duct taped my charge back together and it works :slight_smile: Looks a little funny, though.

@FallGirl, I think you’ll like the Alta! I appreciate the look better (thinner) and I like the functions. I’ll be curious how they sent yours - as one fresh Alta in a box or as two components - the strap and the main ā€œwatchā€ (has a name, I forget) for you to put together . That’s how I got my replacement one - I sort of wondered if it was a refurbished one or something!

I received the Alta --free-- as a replacement for one of their older ones that had a recall on it.
I really dislike the Alta–the strap is nearly impossible to put on. I have a rash from it. I tap it and most of the
time nothing happens.
They are sending me a rebate check! $140. I am happy but miss my old one (I cannot remember which it was–
no longer sold).

Thanks for the input re the Alta abasket and oregon. It will be interesting to see how it is shipped and if I like it.

Nordstrom Rack 25% off red tag sale items and 40% off sale dresses. D found a beautiful Alice and Olivia dress that was $468 marked down to $64!

Just placed a small order with Modcloth and I forgot to use the code! I called, not expecting to get through on a Sunday night but I did and the order total was adjusted. Another reason to love Modcloth!

I needed a 2nd pair of sneakers to leave at work, but I didn’t want to spend too much. I received a $20 Zappos reward for signing up for the rewards program and used it towards a pair of Saucony sneakers that were on sale/clearance from $55 to $30. I think it was a discontinued color. The total was $10 and includes free one day shipping when you use the app to order.

Gee, I receive that $20 Zappos reward and thought it was a hoax. I thought Zappos never gave discounts! Gotta see if I still have the email!!! Thanks RyanG!

Just renewed my fixed rate gas utility. The company not only price matches virtually every other provider (including promo codes) but they are a delight to deal with and they offer free nest thermostats with a 2 year contract. Already have nest thermostats, so took the $0.379 per therm rate (down from $0.399 last year which was a bargain back then). Many companies are quoting fixed rates with therms in the 50’s

Woot! Just bought two pairs of Thorlo no-show socks that can be worn with athletic shoes @ $11 apiece but used the free $20 coupon from Zappos.com so they were $2 for 2 pairs with free shipping both ways! I’ve often paid MUCH more for them.

Needed a picture frame. With the sale, the 2 different $5 off things I had and 20% off, the $21.99 frame cost me… $0.83

Just booked the airfare for an island in January at 15% less than the fare has been in the last 30 days and only 5% above the lowest price it has been in the last 90 days. Thank you fare watcher on Kayak!

I forgot about the Zappos coupon. I went back through my email and my coupon is for $30. Need to use that up.

There is a one day sale on Amazon Prime memberships
Amazon Celebrates the Launch of The Grand Tour by Offering Amazon Prime for Only $79

I purchased a $100 Anolon wok online from Macys for less than $25. I had a $5 reward card from Macy’s and 6% cashback from ebates.

Maybe everyone knows this but I didn’t so I’m sharing. If you are an Amazon Prime subscriber, you can get 6months free online access to The Washington Post. I’ve been a heavy reader lately and the views per month wasn’t cutting it for me.

^^ Didn’t know that! I’m more of a NYTimes girl, but that’s good to know!

TY Doschicos!
