Baseball game

August 16th, 2007 · No Comments

We went to a baseball game yesterday, and it was awesome. First one we’ve ever been to at Fenway. Lovely! But holy cow the tickets were super expensive for crappy seats. No wonder it’s the most expensive seats in the major league. Fortunately DH won the tickets in a lottery [...]

Tax Free Weekend Spending

August 13th, 2007 · 4 Comments

So how’d we do as far as savings go? I think we did pretty well.
We bought the sofa official on Sunday for $1194. We used a $100 coupon and 0% financing, they went hand in hand. The store mailed the coupons with their catalog and to be used with their CC. [...]

Helping children out?

July 23rd, 2007 · 3 Comments

How much help should you give your children? Where do you draw the line?
With DH’s best friend living with us, he’s going through the debate over whether to buy or rent. Usually it’s a pretty simple answer. Buy if you plan on staying put but rent if not. But the unknown [...]

Mail in Rebates

May 20th, 2007 · No Comments

This weekend I really need to do about 5 mail in rebates. But I’m feeling sort of lazy and not up to the challenge. Anyway I got back my first mail in rebate for $10. Not bad, for buying beef and seafood. I also got back surprisingly the movie tickets for [...]

mypoints gift cards

March 25th, 2007 · No Comments

We have been doing mypoints for years now just clicking on ads. We do nothing fancy and we earn 5-10 point here and there. Strangely earning the points have been beneficial. We fortunately managed to trade in our points for 3 $25 gift cards to Olive Garden, Maggiano’s group, and the California [...]

Small savings now…big savings later

March 13th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Well we got back our notice from the city, and our assessed value of our home was abated $15,600! That only translates into a $145 tax abatement for this year. However it means that moving forward our tax basis for our house will be lower because of it.
When we bought our place, the [...]

American Express Cash Back Rebate

February 21st, 2007 · No Comments

Today I got my American Express Cash back rebate of $36.65 for the year. Which is pretty awesome. This was just for spending money on the CC. I know you’ll say that I spent more on the CC rather than cash, which is doubtful. I never pay interest and having been [...]
