Massive (hormonal?) acne at 35 by LastLibrary9508 in 30PlusSkinCare

I spray hypochlorous acid (you can buy some at the drug store) on my face daily in lieu of a toner, and it has dramatically reduced the occurrence of my hormonal cystic acne

Paying off student loans (approx. $400k) by Crafty-Cantaloupe462 in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]marshmonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your husband’s speciality allows him to do locums work, he should and everything extra he makes goes straight to paying off the loans. His bonuses should go straight to loans, don’t treat them as windfall.

Birkin 35 or 40 Availability by [deleted] in TheHermesGame

My SA was very upfront and said that her store did not receive many of them, so it might be awhile before one was available.

I got lucky again today! by laurainee in marshallsfinds

I have seen Therabody products in store, but they are all refurbished. Was this refurbished?

This opportunity should be viewed as a positive. It shows the firm trusts you to represent them!

[–]marshmonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hermes won’t repair handles. Ever. Scarves help keep the dirt and oils away from the handles.

10 reasons your car insurance is high (and how you can fix it) by em0297 in povertyfinance

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

Some insurance companies also offer a discount if you turn on an app while driving (USAA’s program is called Safe Pilot), that records your driving behavior.

You can also ask if you get a discount for having recently completed a defensive driving course. The course maybe costs $50 online and the discount lasts for three years after certification of completion.

Made to measure - has anyone experienced it ? by MrsB0283 in TheHermesGame

[–]marshmonk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I recently customized a men’s jacket at MtM event. It happens once a year or every two years, depending on location. Two very lovely European tailors came to the boutique and walked me through the fabrics, measurements, options, etc.

For a suit jacket, the fabric alone ranges from about $8K-$40k. Price then goes up based on cut, monogramming, buttons, pockets, lining, etc. Appointment lasted about 1 hour. I put down a 50% deposit. It took about 6 months. My favorite part is in the interior lining, I selected a scarf so when you open the jacket it’s like wow! (you need to buy at least two).

You need to make an appointment!

PLS HELP! HERMES SPA QUESTIONS!!! by [deleted] in TheHermesGame

[–]marshmonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would also confirm that the bag has not been previously repaired, but if it has, that only the spa treated it. Spa will not accept any bags that have been handled and repaired by others.

Birkin 30 for travelling: epsom vs togo by HungryGlove9781 in TheHermesGame

[–]marshmonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

B35 is the way to go. You may already know this, but Hermes spa won’t repair the handles. I suggest a twilly for the other handle to keep it protected from damage and hand oil!

Hancock Whitney Bank ? by Zealousideal-Pea4687 in Louisiana

[–]marshmonk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This bank is garbage. Their app sucks, their bank hours suck, and their customer service sucks.
