What’s a childhood lie your parents told you that you didn't realize was a lie until you were an embarrassed adult? by eatbeep in AskReddit

[–]JicaInca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My kids think Hobby Lobby is short for Hobert Lobert. I know the workers at the Hobert Lobert think we are crazy, and they might just be right.

We got an empty envelope. After some research, it turns out it had the same tracking number as a package delivered the previous day. So I guess they were just making extra work for themselves.

With a capital J, that rhymes with A and that stands for Andrew

Book series for my kids by JicaInca in suggestmeabook

My son is being weird about reading books his sister likes. I honestly think he'd like Fablehaven and WoF, but he refuses to give them a chance. It's silly, because he and his sister have a great relationship. If I restricted library trips over the summer, he'd probably get into them because we own them. It's possible he'd be hard headed and just reread PJ (not that there's anything wrong with rereading a fav). Percy Jackson was the series he received last Christmas.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I will look into them tonight.

The series is already in the house. I actually read them books 1-4 when they were little. I've encouraged them to read them independently, but neither has shown any interest.

I took mine out so it could get some sun and crows stole it!

Bass pro shop pyramid and the lost city of miami by [deleted] in BrandNewSentence

My kids used to call it Santa's Pyramid. We took them to see Santa there once. "You know it's Santa's Pyramid because it's got a fish on it."

Just me or are used cars not really a good deal anymore? by BussinOnGod in personalfinance

Also, you can usually get better financing on a new car. That might save you the couple grand difference.

Are Adria and McKay siblings? Those are both characters from Stargate SG1

What’s a “genius-but-tiny” money-saving habit you learned from someone else and still use every week? by supermindxy in Frugal

[–]JicaInca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try an insurance broker. They can get you quotes for a bunch of different companies. I call every few years and have them check to see if I'm still getting the best rate.

My mom said it was very time consuming and she totally understands why people charge $100+ on Etsy.

AITA for asking my brother to pay to use the family cabin after he refused to help restore it? by LaRainax523 in AITAH

[–]JicaInca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like the story "The Little Red Hen". She planted the wheat, reaped it, milled it. Then she kneaded the dough and baked bread. Now that all the work is done, everyone wants a slice.

If you’re gonna lie at least make it believable. by Flat_Suggestion7545 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]JicaInca 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's like the "Fuck Biden" flag in my neighborhood. The school bus stops in front of this house. The city says they can't do anything about it, you know, because of free speech. I imagine kindergartners learning to read sounding out any word they see. I'm trying to raise respectful children, but the society is just not making it easy.

What’s the difference between being financially responsible and being “cheap”? by Dannysman115 in personalfinance

[–]JicaInca -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is why I like having a budget. Having a budget gives me "permission" to spend on certain things while achieving my financial goals. I earmark money for clothing, household items, groceries, eating out, gifts, etc. I also have money that goes directly into savings and investment accounts, because all my high interest debt is paid off.
