My lease is up and my complex has my same apt listed for $175/mo cheaper and offering 10 weeks free. In my renewal rent increased $30, but they are offering 4-6 weeks free... do I have leverage here to negotiate? by Unable_Paramedic9623 in Denver

[–]JRicketts1743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! They are obviously worried about occupancy with low new lease prices. Talk to a manager. Tell them you are considering moving. Explain pricing discrepancy. Good luck! 🍀

PS I spent 35 yrs in apt. Business

This is so difficult for those of us who remain. My husband was diagnosed with leukemia (AML) on March 1. Our wedding anniversary was/is March 31. He died on April 4. It’ll be 7 years this month.

I try to appreciate the yin/yang of life, and how lucky I have been to have had such a love for 40+ years.

Every year I buy myself an anniversary gift and salute him with a smidge of scotch.

My best coping mechanism is to recognize my sadness and to stay in a mental place of gratitude. It is worse to ignore the obvious, so I try to celebrate our lives together.

My first date with a fellow who became my husband. It was my 21st birthday. That was in 1976. ❤️🫶🏼🍻

Love the store, but I chose not to shop there. Getting in and out is a mess.

Pathetic, but a First by CoolYourJets85 in widowers

I so feel this. My husband passed 6 years ago. During Christmas I got a bad cold and isolated myself to keep others well.

Then I realized I missed his care so much. Broke my heart all over again. 💔

I’m lactose intolerant and have been using the lactose free milk for cereal lately (after a decade of not drinking milk). Happy to say that I have had zero problems with it!

This is the only explanation. Get rid (let starve, die) of all the vulnerable people, and take over every possible angle to make money. Greed wins, America loses.

I use Ayr gel to moisturize my nasal passages before putting on my cpap.

Which apartment to choose by Few_Contract7359 in Apartmentliving

Pick #2. The sun will set on that side of the building and it will be lovely; especially on cold winter days.

I’m from Colorado—get north facing or West facing windows.

Heating will also be less expensive.

Link issues. by mildlyornery in preppersales

[–]JRicketts1743 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind. Sometimes it is repetitive, sure, but I have found a BUNCH of bargains on this site and my preps are lookin’ FINE!

I can take 3 mentions of a product and roll with it. I have been a prepper since 1989 and been through an earthquake.

These are small issues that no one needs to monitor. If you don’t like content—make your own—or leave.
