Honestly the scoby thing is still kinda gross to me, like a weird rubbery pancake floating in there. But my cousin swears her home brew beats store stuff too, so maybe I'm just not ready to admit defeat yet. Peach at the end sounds like a smart move though.

Learned that lesson the hard way too. Those faux stems sell themselves once brides see them up close.

Noticed this same thing with late fees and parking tickets, where the small upfront cost feels annoying until you skip it once and pay ten times more. It is the whole reason I finally started reading the fine print on stuff I used to just click through. Skipping the boring step works great until it doesn't, and then it really works against you.
