My thoughts exactly!

I stayed home... And did not do any online shopping.

Rawhide!

it's great! I really need to run the car thru the car wash now. Was afraid to before thinking the locks might freeze, but the salt and dirt is just horrible.

Absolutely. In fact if they have 2 sizes of steak for example, say a 8oz and then a 12 oz for a few bucks more, I'll order the larger size so I'll have more leftovers!

Regarding your husband's 401K contribution: I think it is an EXCELLENT idea to put as much as you can in retirement savings. Although it does not affect your INCOME, it will not be counted as SAVINGS that you can tap into to help pay for your son's college. It's been a while since my kids...

Yahoo.

Hmmm. I was searching just yesterday for a new cash rewards card. The way I read the Fidelity Amex and Visa was that it was 1.5% on the first 15,000 spent, and then it increased to 2%. Did I misunderstand? In the meantime, I went with Capital One with their 1.5% across the board. Plus...

Great thread! I've been trying to encourage my kids (in 20's) to contribute the most they can to a Roth -- not even thinking about the possibility of the future changes to its taxability. But it still sounds like a Roth is the way to go for the younger ones. My question now to those that are...

We bought a car last year, and were only able to put $2,000 on our credit card. My daughter also bought a car last year, and they wouldn't let her put any of her down payment on a credit card.

Wow! These are great tips. The things I've used vinegar for have already been mentioned; things like the coffee coffee maker and as a fabric softener, but I'm sure going to try some of the other tips. Vinegar is sooooo much cheaper than some of the cleaning stuff I buy.

OP here. Thought I'd give you an update. I was so upset about this (still am), I decided I'd at least try to pursue it, so I went to our local post office this morning with a printout of the email from the rebate center. The post office DOES NOT have complaint forms to fill out, which...

Over the last few years, I've gotten some really good deals at Menards with rebate items. Usually it's free after rebate type things, and my credits are a few dollars or maybe up to $20. I've never had a problem. (For those of you not familiar with their rebates, it's a "merchandise credit"...

I've never really noticed either way if groups had brought in their own cake/dessert. My first thought was that a restaurant probably wouldn't want to allow, not only because they wouldn't be getting the additional dessert sales, but their might be a liability issue. What if some of the guest...

I would stay at the current job.

Soooo, if it is a "carside" to go order - like at Outback, how much should you tip? Should you do the 15-20%, as if you were being waited on? What if you go inside to pick up your order, like at Outback?

Carrot cake is my favorite, but I'll eat ANY cake. I love wedding cakes, and I can really make a pig of myself if I have access to a cake from a bakery.

I really like my Kindle a lot. I spend a lot of time in waiting rooms (dr/dentist), and it is so much easier to carry in my purse. However, I haven't bought books in several years, using instead the public library. Our library really doesn't have much of a selection for Kindle, and when...

If you know the amount of money your received, you can always plug that number in your return just to get an idea of what your taxes will be. If this involves a mutual fund, I've seen where sometimes they don't have all the numbers available right away and I think it has to do with determining...

I'm literally am addicted to iced tea. I drink it all year long, and have a nice cold one next to me as I type this. It has such a crisp refreshing taste (plus it is so cheap to make), I often wonder why more people don't drink it. I like mine unsweetened, with just a few squirts of fresh...
