Rona Review: Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew Dark Caramel

, , , , , , ,

sbux-nitro-cold-brew-canJust to take a step away from telework, here’s a short and fast ‘Rona Review of the new Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew Dark Caramel that comes in a can.

Looking like a typical 12 fl oz can, the contents is only 9.6 fl oz so the can is light and you can tell there’s space inside.

Not very sweet, minimal nitro bubble feel to the drink.

Am I supposed to shake this? The directions on the back say to “Gently tilt can once…”

Nitrogen is on the ingredients list, albeit last.

Consistency is thin and definitely not creamy like an Ito-en canned drink. The entire can is only 45 Calories though.

Cost is high, around $4 per can?? Or was it 2 for $4? I would only get again if it were on sale.

Here’s a quick video of what it sounds like when the can is opened.

COVID19 Not Stopping the Zippys IslandCamoPac

, , , , , ,

The impact of COVID19 is definitely increasing each day, but the virus is not stopping the release of Zippy’s IslandCamoPac merch. Although the pop-up release at Pearl City and Kaneohe is now canceled, the drop is starting online at zippys.com then will be in-store at Fitted Hawaii.

 

Does COVID-19 Give You Diarrhea?

While shopping today, I heard the most logical question that could be the only explanation for this.

These are the empty shelves of Safeway, Longs, and Sam’s Club all bereft of toilet paper. So what’s the question?

Does COVID-19 give you diarrhea?

How else do you explain why everyone is buying up toilet paper in preparation of COVID-19?

The Sheepish Flex

Following the passive aggressive flex comes the sheepish flex. So today at work while closing out an issue with a coworker, the Angry Asian Girl walked by trying not to be noticed. Why? Because she was rocking these today!

These being the Nike Air Force 1 07 Limited Edition that’s decorated with Japanese cherry blossoms on the tongue, heel tab, and the insole. If you’re keeping score, that’s two days, two shoes, two flexes.

The Passive Aggressive Flex

, , , , , ,

How’s this for a passive aggressive flex? At work yesterday, I was talking to a coworker when the Angry Asian Girl rounds the corner. After a few short pleasantries, she non-chalantly complains that her shoes are not comfortable. So of course, I look down to her shoes and BLAM! I was blinded by the Diamonds.

The Angry Asian Girl was blinged out with the re-released Nike Diamond Dunks and even had mismatched laces for full effect. And I’ll take her word that the shoes are not that comfortable because that passive aggressie flex was smooth.

Et Tu, Foot Locker?

, , , , , , ,

AJ1-UNC-chi1Although not yet the Ides of March, I have been betrayed disappointed by yet another Footsite. Historically, any purchase of in-demand sneakers from Footaction online led to cancelled orders. Last month, it was the same with Champs Sports, failing to deliver a Yeezy 350 Yeshaya colorway.

But this week, the mighty Foot Locker didn’t come through with an order of the Air Jordan 1 UNC to Chicago. I managed to get my size (US10 Men or 11.5 Women) and got a confirmation email. Cool.

Then a few days later the downfall began with this email. From my past experience, this delay is how Footaction cancellations started. Not a good sign.

Foot-Locker-delay

Not hearing anything for the next few days was somewhat promising (I think) so I checked my online order and saw that the shoe had a status of “SHIP FROM STORE.” That was definitely a red flag since all cancelled Footaction orders had the same status. You see, the Footsites ordering system is flawed for Hawaii (and Alaska I take it). Their system will allow consumers to buy products including in-demand sneakers. However, as inventory in their shared main warehouse is depleted, the orders are farmed out to a secondary warehouse or retail stores to fulfill using their stock. Now here’s the flaw. These other locations cannot ship to Hawaii (for whatever reason). So while the shoe may be availalbe, they simply cannot ship it to the Aloha State. And if they try to reroute order fulfillment back to the main warehouse, odds are the hyped shoe will be out of stock.

This morning Brutus (aka Foot Locker Customer Care) delievered the lethal strike:

Thank you for your recent order. We regret to inform you we were unable to fulfill some or all items from your recent order number ####### due to lack of product availability.

So Footaction, Champs Sports, and now Foot Locker betrayed me with confirmed then cancelled orders, seemingly because I’m in Hawaii and their ordering system cannot accommodate this location.
