I hope I'm posting this in the right area, but would it be possible to have a forum for Food Pyramid? It's the chain that purchased most of the Albertson's in Oklahoma. I have gotten some great deals there and 1) want to share them with others & 2) want a place to brag about it, lol!

Thanks!

How about a "Thrift Store Jungles" forum? Do we already have one and I don't know it?
It'd be nice to announce sales, have a sticky for FAQ/store info.
Heck, I could handle being MOD for it.

We have a separate thread for Requesting new store forums to be added here at this link.

Food Pyramid is one of the choices in the poll, and Thrift Store Jungles isn't in the poll yet, but we can add it to the poll and see if there's enough interest. In the meantime, you can post any deals you find in the Other Grocery Stores subforum.

I'm sorry if this has been posted, but 7 pages of requests is too much for me tonight...

I would love to be able to sort my inbox by other parameters than date (alpha would be great) I know that I can search for a persons pm's, but it would be great to see more than one at a time

It would also be wonderful if, within the new cool stuff... that box on the side of our usercp, that shows our friends and allows us to pm them, it would be AWESOME if it would somehow also tell us if they are online.

Lastly (for now...) within the Itrader area, when giving feedback, the options are buyer/seller/trade. I would LOVE to see RAOK within that. Sometimes it's difficult, based on wording, to see that a newbies few feedback are from sending an raok, or an actual trade... If we could tell that 5 of the 6 fb are from an raok, that would be extremely helpful in trading.

Thanks for listening!!!

I've come to your rescue!! I use this WONDERFUL online conversion, that quickly and easily tells me the current time in each zone at once, and doesn't require the usual plugins. I have the same issues, not knowing if the auction has ended, 'cause I don't know my mountains from my central and how many hours backwards or forwards to either, or the rest for that matter!!! I know PST!!! I did pm the auction mods about perhaps making it a sticky, and they said they'd discuss it...

Here is the site, for your convenience.

Online Conversion - Time Zone Conversion

HTH!!!

I'm sorry, I wrote "Thrift Store Jungles" sorta like slang...I just mean a thread for Thrift Stores in general.

ROFL - well that explains why I couldn't find anything on Thrift Store Jungles when I googled it last night!!

We already have a sticky in the brags thread for Thrift Store finds (although it is lumped with yard sale etc finds too) - since merchandise completely from location to location, day by day, I'm not sure why we would need a completely separate forum.

I really am not sure how to word this without getting flamed by auctioneers.
On the main page for new posts, it is overwhelming trying to find posts that are other than auctions lately. There are soooo many going on nowdays that its almost impossible to find the non-auction posts in between the auction posts. I understand I can just go straight to the forums I want but it was so nice to be able to just hit new posts and see what all was going on. (even in the forums I don't frequent or have stores for, I've been able to help people in them just by seeing whats going on)

Fewer animated smilies and some pared down skins would be nice. Something less graphic intensive for the dial-uppers.
