Postshipper | Ultra Fast Shipping During The Corona Crisis

I have been using Postshipper for quite some time. Overall I am very happy with their service, their only issue is the custom charges that I have to pay by cash when they deliver the shipment. I like to pay everything online for convenience, but sadly there isn’t an option where I can pay everything online right now. They should add paying custom charges online, because sometimes they arrive and I don’t have cash at home. During the corona crisis, I think Postshipper is the best company in terms of speed. Posta Plus Mybox became extremely slow that I reduced my shipments with them by 80%. I have a shipment very soon with Posta Plus, so lets see if there are any improvements with the speed.

Update: Things have slowed down a lot since I wrote the article, so check out the latest update

I Won’t Buy One Plus Phone This Year I am waiting for Pixel 4A

When One Plus released their new line last week, and I was surprised to see the new prices. I loved One Plus a lot, because they were affordable and durable. In my opinion it was the recipe of Toyota cars and the main reason they were successful. Right now, they are as expensive as the flagship phones. I am no longer interested in One Plus phones at these prices and now I am interested in the Pixel 4A, which will be using One Plus previous business model of affordable prices and durability. I believe a price range of $400 to $700 is perfect, any anything beyond that is a lot these days. Lets wait for Pixel 4A and I will write an article by then.

I can’t believe how much things have changed after the spread of corona virus in Kuwait. I never thought that one day I will be able to order from Slider Station and Starbucks for delivery. The corona virus changed the industry so fast and it is challenging for lots of businesses, but this is when you see new ideas in the industry. I like the fact that people in Kuwait were very quick to come up with ideas that increases their sales. Now you see cook your own meal boxes or BBQ boxes across most restaurants in Kuwait. In the past, it was mostly burgers, hotdogs, kebabs, tawook, and tikka. Now it ranges from shawarma to steak. Let me share some of the concepts that I never thought will ever sell cook your own meal boxes even if it falls into the category of burgers and kebabs.

1- Le Relais de l’Entrecôte (Steak)

 

2- Pita Bar (Shawarma) | Photo by theculinaryquest

4- Slider Station (Burger)

 

5- Villa Fayrouz (Kebab & Tikka)

6- Rock House Sliders

7- China Garden (Noodles)

8- Abby Shawaya (Roasting Chicken)

9- Leila Min Lebnen (Kebab & Tikka)

10- Vigonovo (Pasta)

11- Table Otto (Pizza)

It is extremely innovative for steak, shawarma, and pizza. This is an industry changer. I am waiting for KFC to make fry your own chicken, I am getting hungry already !

When Will OWC MacSales Release Macbook Pro 13″ 2017 Touchbar Replacement Battery From NewerTech

My cousin is facing an issue where his battery for maxed specs Macbook Pro 13″ 2017 is draining so fast. The main issue is that he is living in a country where they don’t have an Apple store. He asked me to find a solution few months ago, but I only found replacement batteries from eBay. Of course I wouldn’t take the risk and buy a nonbranded battery from eBay for safety reasons. Few weeks ago, I found another battery from iFixit, but I had a very bad experience with iFixit battery in the past and wouldn’t take the risk again. OWC MacSales NewerTech Battery is the only battery I would buy, but sadly it doesn’t exist for this model yet. I contacted OWC MacSales customer service, and they told me that they don’t have a plan to release a battery for Macbook Pro 13″ 2017 touchbar so far. The only thing we can do right now is to wait.

There is a sudden demand for gym equipments in Kuwait. People in Kuwait are buying and renting gym equipments for home use since they can’t go to gyms. According to a friend of mine prices went up 50-100% for gym equipment and I called a family member who sells gym equipment and asked him about the trend. He told me we sold our entire stock including the showroom samples. Gyms in Kuwait started renting their equipment, and this is how they are making money right now.
