    Beware - Predatory Activity

    Just sharing my experience to help others: I posted a WTB/WTT for McClelland Tudor Castle. I received a PM pointing me to a guy who had it for sale. I corresponded with him via email at rodgerworker@gmail.com. Once the payment was sent to @nicole_bri3 via Venmo, I was told a tracking number...

    Granger And Half&Half Now In 7oz Cans

    Just an FYI. Similar price per ounce alot of places as the bigger tins. I've always wanted to try Granger but shied away at the price of a whole big tub, so I bought a 7oz tin recently. Options are good. Searched for any similar threads and didn't find any.

    Square Tins And Budget Mylar

    After learning of the instances of square tins losing their seal I thought to remedy the situation by packaging my tins in Mylar. Previously I've bought the brand "Pleasant Grove Farms" and have been very pleased with the thickness and quality of their Mylar products. However I saw a 100 pack...
