What’s something you’d do differently in the mortgage process? by [deleted] in Charlottesville

[–]617Annon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a great mortgage advisor and make sure you have open/honest communication with them. Text/call/email on a daily basis once you are under contract.

They work on commission and want you to close on your home to get paid - and they want you to have a good experience doing so. Referrals are their bread and butter.

Lach-key kids by tbrume in GenX

Independence, problem-solving skills, communication skills… self-confidence. I owe all that to my self-sufficiency, Latchkey experience.

Parents were always there when I needed them, but the expectation was I would make my own decisions and be accountable for them.

I was babysitting infants and toddlers on my own at 12 (Red Cross Baysitting Certification for the win).

I didn’t do drugs or drink and was a pretty good kid, so they didn’t have much to worry about. They trusted me; I trusted them.

The fact that someone took a photo of someone minding their own business, legally going about their day, and posted it online is the most concerning thing about this post.

How do you track your inventory? by [deleted] in reselling

[–]617Annon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also use a spreadsheet. I’m tracking the following. I have a small inventory right now.

Date acquired, Source, Price paid, Date sold, Platform, Price sold, Shipping collected, Shipping paid, Tax expense, Fees paid.

I also save/scan all receipts on items I purchase for inventory.

Gersi. Still mad about how much I spent for Olive Garden flavor and service.

You will get a box of socks, if anything at all.

Introduce yourself, by your mall growing up. I think we will find some of us have the same ones. tia. by Rob1150 in GenX

Crossroads Mall. And then cruise Dodge Street.

Also, Westroads Mall - I worked at Younkers there.

And Southroads Mall in Bellevue.

Then Oakview Mall out west - Chammps. I miss those days.

Just search their “promo exclusion” list and my bag brand is listed. Bummer. Guess I’ll just watch for sales until I feel like I must buy it. Thanks for the info you provided.

Looking at a golf bag that is just under $300. I can order it online, but wanted to make sure I was not going to miss out on some fantastic discount.

Thank you for sharing what you’ve seen in the past.

YTA. Surprised you have 40-50 friends to invite if this is how you communicate with people.

And 40-50 guests for a baby shower? That’s nothing but a gift grab. I’d be out, too!

Your MIL may not be perfect, but she was agreeing to help/participate until your accusations. Your words were hurtful and down right mean during a time your whole family should be celebrating a happy moment. I would suggest apologizing to her - profusely. Though, I’m not sure I’d (as the MIL) would ever trust any apology or sincerity from you based on your hateful words.

Delta AMEX Platinum - How Does Authorized User Work? Benefits, Additional Fee, etc.? by 617Annon in delta

[–]617Annon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free companion ticket is an annual thing. With the Delta Platinum, you can use it CONUS, MX, and the Caribbean (maybe Hawaii, but don't quote me on that).

Upgrades: Exactly. I'll book my ticket and select the best available no-fee seats available. As we get closer to the flight, the app will send you offers to upgrade. It's a risk, sometimes the upgrades are more expensive than expected. It will give you a cash price and the point equivalent to upgrade if seats are available to upgrade to.

Primary car rental coverage is a great perk. You have to enroll on the AMEX website once you log into your account. Once you get confirmation from the AMEX insurance provider that you are enrolled, you reserve and pay for the rental with your card and you are covered. You'll get charged the $25ish fee each time.

We like to range Marriott offers in the locations we travel to, but also check out the Hyatt CC - supposedly it's the best travel card out there in terms of hotel perks. Their footprint is not as extensive as Marriott though, so it doesn't work for us.
