I love credit cards so much! v3.0 (see first page for add'l details)

Really? That’s stinks. I’ve only used it twice but the app clearly says the tips go directly to the Dasher.

I looked into this a few months ago because I was considering signing up to deliver. Technically, it does go to the driver. But it's shady. I can't remember the exact number, but for conversation sake, let's say $10 in minimum. So doordash drivers make a minimum of $10 per delivery, per their policy. If the order actually pays $5, and they get no tip from the buyer, Doordash adds on $5 so they make their minimum of $10. If the order pays $5 and the customer leaves a $5 tip, they make the same $10.

So if the order pays $5, it's better for the driver if you tip in cash because then doordash pays them the $5 to get to $10, plus they get your cash tip. So the driver makes more and no extra cost to you.

Note again, all of those numbers are just examples. I can't remember specifics but it was a really shady business practice so I steered clear.

We received our RCCL cruise vouchers today for 125% of the cost of our Harmony of the Seas cruise that didn’t happen. It is good until 12/31/21 and we have until l12/31/20 to request a cash refund instead. I am torn what to do but we have some time to think about it.

At this point, I still have everything booked for AUS. I just can’t bring myself to cancel and I actually booked $45 one way positioning Flights to LAX when SW had them the other day.

I need to start working on our Christmas in HI trip since we have a timeshare voucher to use. I just have no travel enthusiasm at the moment as everything keeps getting canceled. We should be in DL for a Easter Break instead our big excitement was running to PF Chang’s and stocking up on lo mein for DS. He has 4 servings left that I told him he could have one a week so a month until another run is needed. I made sure to grab a jug of “Joe” filled with margaritas while we were out from a local spot.

I just got a CSR and we plan to use the credits later this year once things are better. I need to try and remember this so we can tip in cash

Just finished the Downton Abbey movie. The show was better, but the movie was still entertaining.

I also ordered a display case for my Himeji Castle. The whole thing is under 9 inches tall! (And the case was not cheap!)

Finally got a cork board specifically to house my Disneyland pins. This isn't all of them but it's a good start.

I have one too that my husband made for me.

Thanks for the info. The in-app suggested tips seem really high to me too.

CSR has the arrangement with DoorDash. Has it been discussed yet that tips made on the AP are not going to the drivers? They’ve been using the tips as part of their base pay. So if you want to give a tip, make it in cash. They had been called out on that and said they would change. But apparently they haven’t.

This is one of the reasons why I haven’t used the doordash credit yet. That and the fact that the participating restaurants here stinks.

Same with doordash, and same with travel. I am grateful for my family feeling ok, and thankful for food and shelter, but I do miss those days when we would sit around and plan our summer vacation.

Dd and I just watched Onward. We didn’t expect much and ending up loving it.

It has an excellent meaning/lesson to it!

We are watching 90 Day Fiancé and they are in Cairns and went to wildlife sanctuary. DS and I were just admiring the koala and roos and commenting how much we want to see them in Aug.

I love when they dance

We felt the same way. We had no plans to go see it (frankly didn't know it even existed until recently) but were pleasantly surprised by this one.

We weren’t super psyched but we’re going to maybe go on $5 Tuesday...then they closed theaters that Monday

Playing this ridiculous game on my phone, garden tale, because I can get points on swagbucks for reaching level 18 or something. It's just growing flowers and selling them. It is SO mindless that I love it. It's the perfect distraction while I'm working and kept me off social most of yesterday and today during work hours. Catching up after work and I was just done with it all. Also kept me off here some but seeing as it's been quiet here I didn't miss much

Also was surprised to login to our internet bill with comcast to see a credit because they are giving everyone free unlimited internet march 13 to may 13 and we already pay for it. So while I was happy about that I also had the, but my MSR! thought. But at the rate I'm going and with groceries, I think I'll have it done in the 3 months without a problem which is good. Have another long list for stock up this weekend.

Trying to avoid buying stuff on shop disney that I don't need as they are dust collectors and I don't have space for them. I did get the lounge pants and Small World ears I ordered last week today. Love the ears and only $15, which I kept thinking of @wendow as I was buying them and feeling bad cause I was getting them for half price. I love the ears and just couldn't with the price when the sequin headbands drive me nuts. But for half price I'll deal and they'll work at the Asian parks Though I do want to make myself 1 pair of ears for that trip but I want them to have something to do with visiting all 6 of the parks, I just can't figure out how to represent that. So if anyone has ideas I'm open to them

We rented Trolls: World Tour and it was cute, not as cute as the first one but my 7 year old loves them. I know a lot of us are getting things through Amazon and if you’ve been getting the slow shipping $3 credits, you can use them towards the rental on Amazon Prime.

Yep same here. About 2 weeks ago when it was hitting hard that pretty much everything we had planned was getting cancelled I had a small break down at the super table and just cried. My husband asked me today how I was feeling about it all. I told him I was fine, that 2 weeks ago I had hope we could salvage the vacations and now I know there is no hope, so not going to dwell on it. I'm just going to throw myself into other house and work projects.

Edited to add: That sounds dark, but It is more of I've mourned the loss and am ready to move on.

We had to buy a new Wii U cord for charging (darn cats). I’m saving the $3 credit for kindle books but I never thought to use it on rentals.

We watched it tonight too! I wasn't that thrilled but we enjoyed it!

I'm now planning a Halloween-y October Universal/WDW trip with my dad to keep my mind on happy things. While I would looooove to try Caribbean Beach I am thinking of booking a Disney Springs hotel on points to save money. Could I book one night at one of the Disney Springs Hiltons using Hilton points and another night at the same hotel using URs (or my dad's Hilton points), and then call the hotel to link the reservations?

Also I gave me and my mom an upgrade to Sapphire Falls for what will hopefully end up being an August belated birthday Universal trip (I've decided I'm turning 29 again in May and will turn 30 whenever I'm able to spend a day lounging at Volcano Bay!)
