The "waiting period trick" part got me, because I used to think those posts were just people overthinking things. Landlords are busy, they don't have time to play games, that was my old take. But then my gym tried to auto-renew me with a price bump and I sat on the new contract for a few days without signing. They called me back with the original rate and a free month, which felt way too easy. Now I see why waiting works, it gives them time to get nervous and drop the sketchy stuff.

Ugh, same thing happened to me! @the_laura gets it, low and slow is the secret.

Saw a butcher say pork shoulder runs closer to 30% with thick fat caps.
