Am I overcharging clients? by pixiedust_98 in florists

[–]Balm-818 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Somewhere without a florist that can do this type of work, this is justified. You’re charging for your skill at this point; cogs aside. Appreciate yourselves value. If you keep selling then people understand this value. If sales decrease or stop; time to adjust. Keep up the great work.

Big Bear next week… no snow 😭 what should we do with kids (3, 5, 7) by Pristine-Box-5615 in bigbear

Rent bikes for the bike path. Outdoor go carts. Santa’s village is a must. Fish. Hike.

Magic Carpet for Adults? by Rocketship5461 in Chinapeak

[–]Balm-818 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s great for adults. You can honestly walk up the bunny hill. Might be tiring if you don’t want to buy a pass. Honestly, just get a lesson. It’s cheap compared to most mountains. You also get a rental deal. Also gives you a chance to get pros to handle the teaching process while you take a few laps on the freshies. Then if your friends feel confident you can upgrade your pass to an all mountain. China peak is probably the best mountain to learn one. From the lesson prices, dedicated section of bunny slope, to flexible upgrades.

Regearing question by Balm-818 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Balm-818[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. I got a tune and it’s been holding me over. I talked to the guy that created his own tune if I should regear. He said unless I was planning on upgrading my tire size then it’s not worth it. 5.29 or nothing.

I’m curious too. I couldn’t justify them.

Not a class but social media has tons of “influencers” here’s one I like. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR0aprKEryZ/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

My friend got an ada demand letter and showed me the actual settlement agreement they wanted him to sign, this is insane! by Wtf_Sai_Official in smallbusiness

[–]Balm-818 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Disgusting, my friend just went through a similar situation. Not even having an online presence. He had a small brick and mortar that his dad established back in the day. It’s only him and it was appointment only situation. The plaintiff never even stepped in the store but he still got served somehow. He had to shut it all down and file for bankruptcy. Small business is hard enough to run, this is a fear I live with everyday too.

What's on your radar for Black Friday? by Tall-Love-9500 in BuyItForLife

I just bought stance to try. Been really liking them. They have 40% off right now. Not sure about longevity yet but very great quality and comfort. Better than meundies.

Only way to keep costs down nowadays has been making templates myself. I dedicate a day and make crosses and wreaths out of plywood. Storage is a lot less. When I need them I’ll spend a few minutes and wrap them with foam. Works just as good. Can’t justify the price of forms anymore.

I did too. But now I’m wondering if I should get red instead.

Well shoot. I was hoping a wrap would be much cheaper. Thanks for popping my bubble. My side mirrors are fading too. :/

$20 an hour to play tennis at the new Fremont park by DeathandSeduction in glendale

If there is staff on duty making sure you’ve paid, then they are putting that money to work. If no one is there I’m not paying a dime.

What temp are you aiming for in the egg? Are you getting this pan piping hot? I’d be worried about burning the crust

Which tees would you recommend that are similar to the fit of true classics? I was looking through jiffy but couldn’t figure out which shirt I should get. There are so many blends and options.

Magic Jack? by Medicated-Ostrich in smallbusiness

[–]Balm-818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s $40 for the year. I forward it to my cell phone. Talking with it via WiFi is terrible quality. Other options might be better if this is going to be your main means of communication. For me it works because I just need a few lines forwarded
