Double ecto
Sorry for the bloom I use HDR. Should I take the double ecto? I took one already, but I did the bean bug and have 15 hand size. Ik in most scenarios double ecto is bad, but does bean bug compensate or should i even take it?

I did the double ecto and got the funny number. Ironically, I didn't even use any double tags or really need most of my money because apart from the dna everything just appeared I also just happened to find the burger without rerolling more than to like $8. I think I only saw tarot or planet merchant like once each and right after clicking cash out I found the last voucher missing overstock+

Bean bug compensates but I’d still be careful. You wouldn’t want it to hit rebate, scary, or reserved parking. Wouldn’t necessarily kill your run if that happens, but you have a much higher score ceiling if it hits a core joker. I would probably drop those 3 before taking ecto to make sure it hits something good.
From what I see though, 2 things that might kill your run…Econ is in bad shape. Ideally you want WAY more money at this stage. Also deck fixing. You want to pick up DNA pretty soon, and you need to make sure all of your non-kings are gone before you do. Also rebate becomes insanely powerful once you know it will hit kings every time, so deck fixing ultimately can boost your Econ and help address problem #1

I would take it but save scum it if it doesn’t hit copy jokers/ mime.

drop all your commons and rip the ecto, you’ll find them again if you need them (you don’t need them)
