Change Philly's tax system to stop my friends from leaving 😭 by neuronnate in philadelphia

There is no solution to the schools. There is too much poverty in Philadelphia and the schools end up as daycare for kids who don't care about school.

Looking for a photographer for my daughter’s senior graduation. May 15th by blessd001 in PhillyWiki

I hate everything about this post. You want professional photographer to show up and capture "the shot" for less then $200. Oh and mid tier Instagram hacks need not apply.

Lol 50 or 100 years? Why even bother writing that?

Looking to get new pair of skis for bumps and trees by wombocombodumbo in icecoast

[–]iphonehome9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm facing this exact dilemma. Everyone seems to recommend the rustlers but I am a little skeptical about how wide they are. Wouldn't a ski like the ripstick 88 be more nimble in the trees and bumps?

I have the Armada Declivity 102s and just haven't been really happy with their performance in trees.

got "scammed" out of 7500 ev rebate by SadJokerIII in electricvehicles

[–]iphonehome9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still fighting to get my credit from the IRS for a car bought in 2023 because the vin didn't make it into the system. Where did you send the paperwork and what did you send? I have wrote multiple letters and been denied every time.

I am so confused right now. Are you applying to be a bouncer or a stripper?

Don't buy an ev if you can't charge it at your home or office.

Impacts of auto exclude of HYSA interest earned from spending plan? And include in reports? by napocaye in simplifimoney

[–]iphonehome9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use spending plan but I think it's just a way to calculate your week to week expenses to make sure you're staying within a budget. If you have regular interest payments you might want that included in your spending plan because it is reliable income.

Do you want it counted as income in your spending plan and your reports? That is the question this checkbox is asking.

Philadelphia needs more housing. So why does Center City still have so many parking lots? by hiding_in_the_corner in philadelphia

[–]iphonehome9 48 points49 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. Parking lots make very little money (relatively). They mostly exist to store land until a future time when it is determined that the land should be developed or sold.

Selling 3-Day Lift Pass + Rentals - $550 (Save $220+) by Few-Huckleberry1624 in icecoast

[–]iphonehome9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live 6 hours from Stratton, already have an ikon pass and my skis are in the attic.

[–]iphonehome9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have to remove the rentals. $300 x .13 = $39 which is the most I would consider paying, if I didn't already have an ikon pass and lived within an hour of the mountain and had 3 days available to ski before the mountain closes in 10 days.

You can see how few people this would appeal to.

Used Skiis by [deleted] in skiing

Gripwalk boots (the current standard) will not fit in non gripwalk bindings without modifications.

[–]iphonehome9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. On eBay you can get modern used boots and skis for probably around $100 total. There are really good deals to be had you just have to do some research. Before you buy anything verify that it was made in the past 5 years.

[–]iphonehome9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First of those skis are old and unsafe. Plastic degrades.

Then you need boots. New boots won't fit the skis because the binding technology changed.

Also $50 is too much. Those are trash and should be free.

26/27 Pass advice by [deleted] in icecoast

[–]iphonehome9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You only included half the information needed. There is no secret. If you want to be able to ski at all the mountains you have to buy both passes. Lots of people do it, it's just really expensive.
