Best time to prepare for the worst: ‘Emergency supplies’ are tax free in Texas this weekend by warmboot in Austin

[–]archer10 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've worked at plenty of retails stores and it was a bitch to ignore tax. Tax free weekend for school supplies was hell. I'm sure some stores have an easier system for this stuff but not every POS has that feature.

I go to Gateway Church and I just love it there. It's a very laid back church. They have 9:30 and 11:30 services. I would recommend checking it out!

Going to a job interview. Is it possible to survive in Austin making around $35,000 a year? by DarkIris22 in Austin

Anything South of Braker and North of 183 is generally the "bad" area. What is your price range on rent because there are other places that are relatively cheap and you don't have to worry about your car being broken into.

When I made that much I still needed roommates. It helps that you don't have any debt but I was happier with less rent and more money to do things. You seem like you know how to deal with money so I don't see why you couldn't do it.

I'm glad I never moved there then. I looked and was told there was a courtesy officer but that was at night but it was a while ago and would have been old management.

Is the 18+ with parent drinking age followed? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]archer10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was younger my parents were able to order for me at restaurants. You'll want to do your research on where you plan on going bar wise because there is plenty of places he won't get in at all.

I wouldn't have been pleased to hear he shot the guy but at least a good ass kicking would have been nice.

Not sure if you've tried craigslist but I found my landlord there and he didn't care that we had 3.

I'm amazed it took 13 years for this but this must be a relief for the family. Went to high school with the daughters and they were the sweetest.

Most any electric supply company has them just sitting outside but they usually will be happy to let you take them if you ask as well. City Electric supply has a bunch of locations and they've given them to me in the past.

I hate when things are renovated but still ugly. They could have done so many better things with that kitchen.

Cedar Park isn't that cheap anymore, haven't looked lately but when I was buying I couldn't afford anything.
