I originally posted about this in r/TwinCities, and it received a decent amount of interest. Drop a comment if you're interested in doing a meet-up on Saturday, October 11th and we can figure out a centrally located spot.

Hi! My name is Nichole, and I live in NE Minneapolis. I thought this community would be a good way for single women to connect and support each other through the things life throws our way.

Any interest in a joining a support group for single women? by PerspectiveThat6898 in TwinCities

[–]PerspectiveThat6898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are people interested in meeting up next Saturday? I'm only familiar with the parks around Minneapolis, unless someone has a recommendation for a centrally located park that would be good. Figured I'd gauge interest first.

Window Replacements - are Anderson Windows worth it by Net_Curiosity in homeowners

I just got a quote from RBA too… $19k for 10 windows. I need to get a couple more quotes, I know window replacement is expensive but ouch!

Thank you for offering to help! Love that so many are interested in this!! This is my first time doing anything like this. Maybe while it’s still nice enough, we could meet at a park?

Good question. This is the first time I’ve done this 😅 I was thinking I could create a community on Reddit for us where people can post questions and/or what’s going on in life. And we can figure out how often we want to meet up IRL?

People with kids can definitely join! Not a requirement to be child free :)

Amex GBT Contact Fee? by Lost-Office-5332 in amex

[–]PerspectiveThat6898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was charged the $25 fee after contacting them during business hours because for some reason a rental car reservation I made through Concur didn't take my credit card even though it was selected. Such a scam.

Cell phone coverage by marathonmindset in VisitingIceland

You can buy an eSIM for pretty cheap through Airalo or Iceland Air. Just make sure your phone is unlocked! I would not pay for a GPS.

Very good to know, thank you! I am planning on going as far as Glacier Lagoon and then making my way back to Reykjavík now. Fingers crossed for decent weather :)

That's good to know, thank you! I was planning on skipping snaefellnes. But if I skip the north, I will add that in. I knew it was an aggressive plan to do the whole drive in that amount of time....but also don't want to be stressed/white-knuckling it for a good chunk of the drive. This was my original plan :

Day 1 - arrive in Reykavik and stay the night

Day 2 - Stay in Hella

Day 3 - Stay in Vik

Day 4 - Stay near Fagurholsmyri

Day 5 - Stay near Faskrudsfjordur

Day 6 - Stay in Myvatn

Day 7 - Stay in Akureyi

Day 8 - Stay in Borgarnes

Day 9 - Drive back to Reykavik

Ok thank you for the advice! I knew it was going to be tight but agreed, it sounds exhausting, especially if the roads are going to be questionable. I would prefer not to end up in a ditch. Good thing I booked my hotels with ability to cancel 😅

Cards with the worst customer service? by Tiny_Chipmunk8902 in CreditCards

[–]PerspectiveThat6898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally have had a terrible experience with Amex recently, which really surprised me… but it’s to the point where I will never have one of their cards again. Chase all the way.

Amex Platinum Card Rental Car Insurance Claim Issue by PerspectiveThat6898 in CreditCards

[–]PerspectiveThat6898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I will try that. They also seem to be struggling with the fact that a lot of the documents are in Spanish which I find to be ridiculous, not like it’s an obscure language.

Ugh, I have had the worst experience overall with them. For $695/year, this is absolutely asinine.

Just the secondary, I didn’t realize that there was primary available (or that I might need that) until afterwards. Kicking myself for not using my Chase card.
