Berk...

Certainly agree with this assessment. This "Brother" has run his string out and is getting mighty tiresome--stalking and whatnot. We have other Brothers who are occasionally irritating (I may be one such) but this guy is a persistent crotch-rash on the Board.

Isn't an integral aspect of CRT "membership" securing and obtaining the DISCOUNTS that have been negotiated for all "members" by Admin 1? Why have access to a "discount" if it's utilization risks one's "reputation"? Ya can post on the message board for free......right? So, the center focus of "membership" is obtaining nickle and dime discounts, correct?

I like to count my money. I don't like to spend it. I also enjoy clipping coupons a great deal. Those of you who know what a real coupon is will understand.....of course I enjoy all types of coupons....my local grocer doubles the value of coupons which are 50¢ or less.... If you don't use your discount, does that mean I can use it and, instead of getting a 10% discount here and there, amp it up to 20%?! hahahahahahahahah.....this is some funny stuff! "If you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it....." equates to utter, sheer, nonsense.

Oh, yeah....while we're at it.....a bargain pasta place is just up the street (calle) from La Amistad.....soda Akropolis...which is in the the junior soda mall across from the hospital (has, easily, 3 or 4 sodas in it plus a bakery)....the pasta is as good if not better than Cafe Mundo and at a fraction of the cost and one can purchase a very nice (size wise and content wise) salad (iceberg lettuce, fresh cut tomatoe wedges, bell pepper slices, cucumber, onions on a large plate) to go with it for something like C2700 (that's the cost of the pasta with the salad) or thereabouts. I take my own aqua purificado :) and I also take my own bottle of salad dressing (they do offer oil and vinegar, but I prefer my own balsamic vinegarette). The outfit also sells pizzas whole or by the slice and hoagie like sandwiches. In the early evening you will find families at the place; during the day it seems to cater to hospital staff.

Hhahahahahaha....going to Costa Rica to get a deal on spagehetti! That's MY idea of a vacation! Screw the hookers.....well, I guess that's a given..... 8)

This can be argued until the end of time, but it is kind of a useless discussion. Meaning that the guys who look to save and get bargains are gonna continue to operate their way and the guys who spend freely are going to continue to spend freely. Neither side is going to change the mind of the other.

Part of my thinking is if I can save 10 or 20 percent on a trip by just asking, then eventually I get an extra trip. Do you pay sticker price for a car?

Once again it amazes me that we can't have a civilized discussion without name calling like 12 year olds. Must have been the full moon but I assure you I am not amused.

Need I remind anyone that this is not tolerated here. If you can't have a discussion that is civil that keep your mouth shut or find another place to rant as it wont be here.

I might also point out the comment is now since been removed and the poster put on 30 day suspension with the next offense being a lifetime ban. But this is the 2nd occurence
in the last week where board members with personal knowledge of another posters personal life, work etc, has used it to publicly on the forum. This is absolutely without question
not tolerated in any manner. We take these situations very seriously and I will not stand for it under any circumstances.

Back to this thread I do warn everyone in this battle of wits to either get back on point, discuss this as gentlemen or you also will be elsewhere.

Enough said.
