Do you have the unit number for the distributor?

I tried looking today and couldn't find the place.

First driveway after the tracks, turn right follow it straight down, it's beside some vape/hydroponics store.
There's no big sign, but there's a sign in the window saying parking only for zojirushi or some shit

Thanks!

Any idea of the store name? I know there's a big one right next to the supermarket in Empire Center, but doesn't sound like the one you are referring.

No idea of store name. It's near shiang garden / near the food court. There's only one in there on that side.. its along the side, pretty big. I'm sure they can help u out with whatever u need.

EB Games has second hand iPhones. Not sure if they are unlocked but you can always get that done by someone else. My friend bought a used PS2 from there back in the day and it ended up to be modified so you never know.

where did you guys get your chest freezers?

looking for a small one cus apparently my fridge freezer is too small to keep up with my penchant for buying random frozen shit or meat on sale

I saw one at Costco for $250 but that seems a little steep
in terms of size i'm just looking for something around 3 ft length and roughly about the same in depth

are there brands i should stay away from?
