    At Pilot or the J - Lot's of coffee. Some munchables, scale, ice.

    Bought my current Bluetooth at one about a year ago and it's starting to die.

    At TA - drivecam, the red copper cook set, dropped $200 worth on presents for the kids lol.

    Just switched to Loves from Pilot for the 4 cent a gallon credit for diamond.

    Showers are trash unless you get in a brand new one. God forbid you need a fuel receipt from the day before. Goods are same price as Pilot but Pilot will let you do your laundry with your points.

    I don’t eat and see no need for most of the Krap in the stores.

    You will see the power company MINE YOU.

    he he he...

    I actually examined that possibility and measured the power burn at the meter.

    Combined with the cooling required to keep that poor computer down to safe temp limits it's a losing proposition. Anything you would possibly mine or make would just be overshadowed by your power bill.

    I tell you something else. Some towns were taken by Miners who bought megawatts of hydropower in big blocks. Then mine off that CHEAP. Eventually more miners move in rack out and eventually the Hydro dam is maxed out supporting the miners.

    Seriously, you can use points for the laundry room at Pilot? I did not know this. Is that at all locations? Thanks for the tip.

    Yeah man. I am loving that perk. I used my points for laundry last week. Those few dollars have officially been moved to a different area of my life

    Not all of them. I would say half of them I have frequented so far in Michigan,Indiana Wisconsin.

    Look at where they have you swipe your credit card in the laundry room. If it shows a Pilot card they accept it than for payment.
