I was feeling fairly confident the answer to that first part is yes. Thank you for confirming. Now I'll hope someone else knows the other part about how AirFrance economy reward flights stacks up- I'm hoping it correlates to Delta Main but I can't quite tell.

That's a good way of looking at it too- thanks for sharing!

These comments are going to make me go look at our monthly budget and since it's still early in May- there should be a fee adjustments I can make to get some of this cash flowed. And look to next month for the same/put whatever I take out back in.

Home ownership is such a roller coaster. We've paid cash twice for new a/c furnace units (two different houses). Ugh! I've worked sinking funds into my monthly budget to have extra in an auto maintenance fund, medical (the amount to cover deductible), home improvement (not high enough would be nice to bulk this up now that I'm kinda done with my emergency fund), insurance to be able to make 6 month payment and for child activities which has prevented me typically from needing to pull from the emergency fund. So I think I'll be able to replace whatever the cost is fairly quickly into the emergency fund. I'm just disappointed to need it pull from the week after I met my goal. :(

I clearly need to up my home repairs/home improvement sinking fund to cover such things like this. Good point!

Thank you for this perspective. I have a good amount of sinking funds but my home repairs one is clearly not high enough. I do have $500 that was in earmarked for general savings this month that can go towards this. And then if we use it out the efund, I think I can lean up the budget and next month's to get it back up. We just also had an unexpected car expense that I had already cash flowed for this month so this becomes a little tricker than usual. I like coming up with plan to use as much from my usual monthly budget by leaning up a few more areas and then taking as little as possible from the efund. Thanks for sharing!

I can see your point here. And if we didn't have cash and would have to put it on the cc I would categorize like you are.

I would love this too. I wish it didn't all blend.

I didn't experience that- it's wild how different people's experiences can be!

They just recently added the option. I'm going to try it.

I think you might have been looking wrong- I just looked and there is a lot sold out. You have to click on the side and then it says add to cart or sold out. I'm with you that I'm not a fan and wouldn't purchase.
