    Health Insurance Warning

    Even when you call ahead, sometimes there are surprises. My dd had her tonsils out last July. I called our insurance and was told since we already met our (high) deductible everything would be covered 100%. Fast forward to end of August when we received a $1400 bill for anesthesia. Now...

    car rental discounts?

    I always head over to mousesavers.com and type "car rental" into the search engine there. Up pops choices of most every car rental agency with lots of coupon codes to try for each company. I use a notebook and pencil to keep notes (so can remember where I've been).... and do research ...

    Buying Used Washer and Dryer

    Huh... I just sold my dryer on craigslist. Got a new steam dryer so sold the still working perfectly "old" dryer for 100 bucks. Cash. Never even thought to give a receipt, & wasn't asked for one. DH had put it in the garage so there was no way for the buyer to turn it on, either...

    I am organizing our 2 block sale which is in 2 weeks. I just filled out the newspaper ads for both our community paper and the city paper. The craigslist ad is free. A 3 line ad ( a very small advertisement with no bolding of fancy eye catching anything) costs me $58.50. Yep, that's nearly...

    Mendenhall Glacier - How much time?

    With 4 people, you would come out about even renting a car for "the day". That's another option with the added benefit of giving you freedom to explore the area a bit. The AVIS office is an easy 10 or 15 minute walk, in a nearby hotel lobby.

    Mendenhall Glacier - How much time?

    Several different companies run busses from the cruise ship docks to the glacier. All are $8 per person each direction. Each company WANTS to sell you a round trip ticket for $16 each. DO NOT DO IT! Instead, buy a one way ticket. Why? Whenever you are done hiking the trails...

    18 year old in a hotel without parent

    She did mention she had to put her credit card "on file" when checking in. And she did have ID. My kids all were started with a credit card at age 15. Just exactly for this reason, in case they ended up flying alone and needed 'something'. ((Our family has always traveled a LOT)) BTW, the...

    Property management divison sold.

    Sounds like the new management knew all along that they had to honor the old contracts. They rolled the dice and spent a stamp to see IF anyone would sign a new contract without thinking it through. What do you bet some people signed and mailed it back to them?
