@Moore Income I edited the post this morning to add that GoodRX.com is national, not just limited to FL. I published the price spread for that one drug because that is what is going on at the pharmacies these days. It is definitely worth checking out the prices at all the pharmacies near you, with or without a discount card. Where most goods and services are competitively priced in any given local area, drugs are not!! And up until the last couple years or so, I just always stayed with one...Read More...

WEN DEE that is wonderful you adopted a son. They can be so funny at times. Our 2 boys will do all most any thing for us and our 27 year old son he will help any one out. Thats a fault in some ways when it comes to women. They end up using him. No matter how many times we tell him some one using him he just wont listen. I don't like it when his heart gets broken but I know some day he will find happiness.Read More...

We adopted our son, when he was 18 months old. He is Special Needs. He is so talented, he loves to be a comedian.Read More...

This would be nice, but I do not know of any, since most require a high-spend amount to receive points.Read More...

I have heard a lot about the Venture One card from Capital One @ekuhlens . Thanks for sharing your tips. @Arthur Pember it is true that certain people like to take advantage of tourists when it comes to the exchange rate. This is true in nearly every country I have been to. Your best bet is to exchange money at a bank.Read More...

MINTJULEP We go threw allot of tp in our house but i really don't buy any other paper product but paper plates. I don't think KS has a BJ's or Costco.Read More...

One of my projects this year is to track my purchases at the warehouse clubs. We belong to both BJs and Sams. I prefer BJs because their bulk packages are smaller than Sams. My partner prefers Sams because he claims they carry stock that appeals to him more than BJs. I mainly like them for their gas prices, like Moore Income. We freeze and dehydrate a lot of food, so bulk buying works into our lifestyle. Clark Howard, a national consumer guru who I follow, swears you pay more for paper...Read More...

MOORE INCOME thank you i didn't no that.Read More...

@Bonnie Squires Credit cards can actually be a fairly effective way to build your credit. The key is to use them just as that, a tool. Having extra available credit especially if you carry a balance can help create a better debt to available credit and keep your usage below a certain percentage which in turn increases your credit. For example, on my account, they are only recommending one credit card to me and it is one that could potentially start me off with a high credit limit which would...Read More...

MELINDA LONGTIN I understand about food lasting in a car. There only 5 of us now and its still hard making smaller meals. So now I'm trying to find out what meals can be frozen. I've a seal a meal which has saved me tons of money all ready.Read More...

That is great that you had time and opportunities to cook/prepare lunch so often! I cannot do so because my full-time job is so incredibly inconsistent and I spend so much of it driving. Food only lasts so long in the car.Read More...

@mintjulep Glad to be of help!Read More...

Moore Income, thanks for that link to Nerd Wallets comparison. There is information there about Roths I did not know. I just reached 70.5 and have been working with my financial adviser as to how best/when take my RMDs and then what I'm going to do with it. The hope is that I can tighten the belt enough to reinvest some of it!Read More...

@krisnick09 Glad to see you had a good experience as a customer of the service. Instacart is really focused on providing the best service for their customers and their delivery drivers alike. Without one or the other they have no company!Read More...

Hey Don I’ve used Instacart here recently. My local grocery store offers a shop and pick up at the store feature. But; if you can’t get a good time they offer Instacart. I don’t have anything negative about my experience with them. They were very efficient and timely. I even had good conversation with the person who delivered my items. The service is good because you can avoid going to the store and dealing with issues like if they don’t have enough lanes open. They give you the option of a...Read More...

@Bonnie Squires Yes, I thought that was all over.Read More...

MSKIMBERLY very true. our son use to keep up with the prices of them. now he working and doesn't really keep up with it. I was surprised the other day we was in the dollar tree and i seen packs of cards. I asked the kids are they Pokemon cards. They told me yes. I'm surprised they still make them.Read More...

DEON CHRISTIE i never really though about this great post. thanksRead More...

DEON CHRISTIE we have a Sam Club here you can buy in bulk but you have to pay $40 for a membership for the year.Read More...

For me it's a shop called Makro @Bonnie Squires . Where you can buy in bulk with rather large savings. I save almost 45% on my groceries considering quantity. Which makes it easier to not having to buy groceries as such every month. Apart from the everyday items like bread, milk and fresh veggies.Read More...

DEON CHRISTIE yep thats what i was told.Read More...

I knew there was something with itching hands @Bonnie Squires . Although I had my wires crossed and thought one meant getting money. And the other to be spending money...lol!Read More...

Indeed @Moore Income . Tiny acts of kindness give us hope. The world needs more of that.Read More...

There are still good people out there @Tracee . That is pretty amazing. And also how I believe we should help people, completely anonymous. People don't need to know everything right?Read More...

DEON CHRISTIE thats goodRead More...

It's quite hard to keep up @Bonnie Squires . Which is why I use auto posting tools like Buffer. But I have a lot of work before my next post scheduling period.Read More...

@Moree Income, I love your advice, thanks so much!Read More...

@Wen Dee I see. In that case, it might be a little more difficult to open credit cards but not entirely impossible. Especially if you have a decent amount of income, there are some cards that will approve you with lower credit score, but you gotta do your research to find out ahead of time. I know Capital One offers a lot of options and some for lower credit scores in order to build up credit. I personally started out by getting a store credit card at Kohls. Although I only got approved for...Read More...

A little outside my department @Bonnie Squires . Although I like to cook occasionally, but also prefer game meat. It's so much more healthy than the meat from the butcher. My brother is quite the hunter, and I normally pay him to do the shooting. Usually a Kudu and Blue or Black Wildebeest fill my fridges with enough meat well into the next hunting season. Works out a lot cheaper that way.Read More...

My wife and I have tried somewhat to have a meal plan but we find that it doesn't usually work out like we plan. Since it is just the two of us, it is hard to plan food that is just enough for that meal and we usually end up with left-overs. While we have no problem with left-overs, we have found that a lot of times we end up wasting food this way. We do try to have somewhat of a plan for different meals that can be made and my wife will just cook throughout the week as she has time and...Read More...

@MsKimberly glad to see your posts are now being published and you have become an active and helpful member of the community!Read More...

Thank you so much. I appreciate your help.Read More...

@Briana I personally do not have experience getting a loan through them. I did however go through the initial process but I did get a little confused when they redirected me and I got quite a few emails that confused me a bit more.Read More...

Your best bet when getting started would be to find a high-interest savings account. With many new online banks and platforms being introduced to the marketplace, the interest rates are starting to get pretty competitive and it should not be hard to find something that could work for you. I am not an expert on the topic but I did f ind this article from Motley Fool that goes into more detail about what types of investments can give you compound interest. Hope this helps! For anybody else...Read More...

@collins Crystal, you are taking the first step by being on this forum. I know it can be uncomfortable at first talking to complete strangers, but I have found that when you reach out and genuinely take an interest in others, conversation begins to come naturally. As you talk to people, you will find times when you may have a life experience that would be helpful in the conversation, by sharing your life experience you bring value to the conversation and it can be extremely helpful. If there...Read More...

@J Glenn Bryant thank you for your service! The military does offer a great opportunity to travel in some cases. It sounds like you have done pretty well for yourself financially and rewarding yourself by traveling is a great option! What were some of your favorite spots that you visited or some places on your bucket list?Read More...

I can only imagine the knowledge you've gained @J Glenn Bryant . That's quite a profit you had there, well done!Read More...

Hi @collins nice to meet you and glad you are a part of this community! You have definitely come to the right place that aligns with your goals. I hope you find a lot of value from this community and I look forward to the knowledge you have to share as well! If you have any questions or if I can be of help in any way, please don't hesitate to let me know!Read More...

COLLINS nice to meet you Crystal. How many kids do you have and what kind of crafts do you like doing? All most all our kids are grown now. We have 8 and expecting our 6th grand child in NovemberRead More...

@MsKimberly @Bonnie Squires the game is both education, fun and slightly addicting my wife and I played again with her sister and my brother this afternoon!Read More...

@Moore Income it does sound interesting and fun. DEON CHRISTIE I though the same thing as you did. MSKIMBERLY i agree with youRead More...

DEON CHRISTIE thank you very much i willRead More...

I actually looked into that since we last spoke @Bonnie Squires . Just search your browser for the search phrase " game tester jobs ", or " video game tester jobs ". But also use " Scamadvisor(dot)Com " to check the trust rating.Read More...

DEON CHRISTIE so true what you said.Read More...

I think we all get sucked down that rabbit hole @Bonnie Squires . Especially with all the glittering " proof " right? One of the methods to create compelling content is to address a common need within a niche. Now who doesn't want extra cash? Which is why it's such an effective marketing tactic. But I have grown quite considerably since. Much wiser these days.Read More...
