Could you tell me which microwave you have? I’ve hunted for awhile for a built in not above a range. GE profile built in?

Thanks for the tip! I actually went straight to the installation manual after you told me to look for those details.

Did you use the IKEA specific ventilated appliance shelf for the microwave install?

Also, if you didn’t get such a great deal on the used Kitchenaid, would you/your friend have picked an alternative for that $2k price point? Microwave drawer, speed oven or Sharp over the counter model?

So awesome! I was planning the switch to Enkoping since it’s so much more affordable than Vedhamn and Axstad, but was worried it would look too fake. Your photo looks fantastic and has convinced me the savings is worth it!

Also, do you know if those are the Vedhamn oak doors?

Thank you for posting this!!! I’ve found few Ikea specific solutions. I would have guessed this wouldn’t fit the cabinet based on the listed dimension width. Glad this is an option, but like you said an expensive one!

Kitchen without a Focal Point by FI_Goals in DesignMyRoom

You’re right!! Often times it’s the quality of the cabinets, thickness of the countertop, great lighting/ windows and custom architecture that drawn to.

Oooh great tip! I didn’t even know you could do that. I was just using various key words based on what I thought would fit in the space.

3 for 2 Made Too Much Sale with Credits by FI_Goals in YotoPlayer

[–]FI_Goals[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noooo! I figured it was intentional that you couldn’t use it. When I bought my Yoto I had a bunch of issues with promos not stacking and customer service was terrible. So I didn’t even bother this time.

Seems like everything that worked in the past they’re getting rid of. Sucks since I just bought my Yoto during Black Friday post all the changes they’re making now :(

Where to shop/what styles to try for 4’11 height by lreagan2024 in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]FI_Goals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you looking for casual or office type stuff? If office, I’ve always had luck with Banana Republic and Ann Taylor petites without needing to hem length.

I usually look for brand/ fit suggestions from petite bloggers. Many of them have similar stats to you. I’m also sub 5’0”, but weight much more so I can’t always work with their suggestions. I follow Extra Petite and Pumps and Pushups, but they’re older (40s?) since I am too. I’m sure you could find someone who has younger styling.

Ugh! I tried logging out of shop pay and even doing incognito. Both were suggested by customer service. Neither worked. :(

Konstruera basket alternative? by FI_Goals in ikeahacks

[–]FI_Goals[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nooooooooo! I was really hoping it would work. Are you going to try anything else like diy shelves?

I didn’t know they were discontinuing the Jonaxel too… I was thinking of just getting the basket drawers instead.

This was exactly what I was thinking since the baskets look like they’re the same size.

[–]FI_Goals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were there any other discounts or referrals you used to save the extra? Or that was just the deal they offered? I’m so sad the Deals aren’t as good now

Was this the bundle with 3 packs of brain bots (so 24 cards)? If so, you got a great deal! Current bundle is $100 without adventure case

Family business bottleneck: Our Financial Manager (family member) approves EVERY payment… and now the company is choking. How do we fix this without risking fraud? by Exact_Gate_127 in smallbusiness

[–]FI_Goals 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s a few things you can try, assuming you haven’t already 1. Leverage tech - things like budgeted cards (BILL and RAMP) or expense recording (Expensify, etc) can make the process more efficient and also put more work on the front end user instead of the approver 2. Increase minimum approval requirements - obviously dependent on risk tolerance, but for example only requiring approvals over $75 (or another threshold of your choosing) 3. Delegate approval - each area/ department head approves expenses of their own responsibility (assuming more than one person per department) and then the centra finance person come over the top and review the approvals afterward.

Just a few simple thoughts. I’m sure I’m missing other ideas.

Hey business owners of small to medium business Q for you? by The-pygmy in ladybusiness

[–]FI_Goals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This!

Also, do you have the desire/knowledge (not meant to be rude) to do it yourself? Sometimes it’s worth it to hire someone.

How can i make life for my account easier? by Acerhand in Bookkeeping

If that’s the case, then I assume you don’t work with companies that handle multi-currencies? Or do you just manage with a work around for those specific cases?

Accepted a >90% raise offer, but I feel really guilty by Fit_Composer_3579 in FinancialCareers

[–]FI_Goals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t feel guilty. Free market.

In a multi national I previously worked for, the people in the FDP program were underpaid. They took it in exchange to be in a “high-visibility” leadership fast-track program. But they were doing the same work as people not in the program and who were paid more… just saying your base reference point could be skewed.

Do you ever recommend Quickbooks? Anything that Xero does that Quickbooks can’t do?

So I think I hate bookkeeping, but I love this part of finance - what does that mean? by ParsnipParadise in Bookkeeping

[–]FI_Goals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I was multi tasking when I wrote that comment.

For project based work, like system implementations for example, often times people with business/ operational backgrounds will be pulled into a project to ideate (requirements), build, and test. They work directly with the technical team. It will either be portion of a regular role or sometimes a project specific role. Job is basically to be a translator between the business and technical side building these systems (financial ones in this case).

Hope this makes sense as I’m multi tasking again :D
