That's sounds about right, maybe plus or minus a couple of million.

Walmarts prices always come with some bullshit game. As an example,
they sold a six-pack of Pepsi, 24 oz bottles for $2.89. for months.
All of the sudden there's a sign saying "Rollback, was $3.50, now
$2.98". WTH? Rollback and it's now 9 cents more than it usually sold
for. They pull this shit all the time.

But, as I've noticed, you have to keep an eye on Walmart.

Their sign doesn't say "Always the Lowest Price," it says "Always Low
Prices."

There are many items at Walmart that one can do better on elsewhere.

If you can get the drainage to improve even slightly
...continue you use your enzyme product or switch to the Zep Drain
Care Build Up remover.

I've been using & recommending that stuff for YEARS (close to 30).
When used as a drain maintenance method it will improve drain
performance and usually preclude the need for ever using a snake.

I would hold off on tearing into the back side of the tub area for a
while, give the drain enzyme a chance......like every night for a
week. If the flow is acceptable switch to 3 days in a row per week
for a month & then drop back to every 6 months.

Way easier than cutting an access hole.

Cheers
Bob

See if you can find something like it at a borg and read their
instructions. Or go to a real plumbing supply store, and tip the guy
5 dollars if you have to for him to show you one. (I never know how
much to tip. )

If Kelloggs is paying Phelps then they have every right to expect him
to keep his nose clean. If he doesn't want to abide by their
requirements, then he doesn't have to accept their money or be their
spokesman. They are paying him for his image and if they require a
clean cut image, then he should decline being their "face". He has
tarnished their image. I would have been tougher on him than they
were.

Good advice above. I had a friend who recently yanked his out. Too
many problems with temperature consistency and had pressure

I'm 55 and a couple years ago when I needed to renew my driver's
license I was able to pass the vision part without using my glasses.
The lady behind the counter said, "What, have you had that surgery?"

I just told her that I had been eating a diet that included alot of
raw vegetables.

Now, lately, my vision has deteriorated again, a bit, because I got
off my good, predominantly vegetable, diet through the holidays...oh
well time to get back on alot of veggies and in a few weeks my vision
will clear again...

I did a vision biofeedback thing years ago. I quit wearing glasses after a year
or two, but I only had moderate correction before.

The biofeedback gadget beeps at varying rate depending on the focus of your
eyes.

After that, I just do exercises once in a while. Hold something with print as
close as you can focus clearly. Focus on it. Then focus on something more
distant till it is as clear as you can get it. Go back and forth for a few
minutes. You may find you can move the close print closer and still focus within
minutes. I did - when I was younger.

I needed glasses to pass from 1963 through 1978. I haven't needed
glasses since. But next renewal, I might again. It's nothing to do
with diet, just that my eyes are getting older.
