I don't know about your state, but in mine, the speed limit is somewhat flexible depending on road conditions and circumstances. ie, you can get a ticket for driving 50mph in a 70mph zone if conditions are bad, but also get out of a ticket if you can prove you were driving safely.
A lawyer will be able to sort this out for you and compared to the insurance rate hike it's CHEAP. They'll almost always be able to get the penalty reduced for you.
Hey, Paul, what is that about the popular content list?
To those in Denver and Seattle--how about Texas? 2 acres, 3,500 sq. feet, pool, four bedroom, three baths--$450,000 in a school system where your kids can learn something and its a public school system.
My mom tried instituting that system and we all called her crazy. I think I should call her and apologize. I guess part of growing up is finding out that your parents were right all along....
Few of us will achieve all of those cost-saving feats, and few of us would want to. But I agree with the author's position that saving money doesn't have to have a negative impact on our lifestyles. And while it may take some getting used to, we may even discover that we enjoy life more when we aren't working ourselves to death to pay for things we don't really need.
As I got the offer in the mail today, as well as the website blatantly pushing the $25 2 weeks after the deadline and my financial advisor saying the offer was still live as of March 28th, they will indeed honor the $25 deposit. I suspect they will for anyone who makes sure they ask for it.
Very well written. Actually, very endearing and funny. I am a 36 y.o. woman who never gets manicures and I might be suffering from the creepy cuticles! I can't really tell!
Another thing you can do is find out everything you know about the specific violation and quiz the officer about the law. Most likely you can trip them up on the stand with a great cross examination. watch some great court movies to see what I mean.
...when we can 't give hungry people food for fear they may sue the hand that feeds them. How about a consent form? Agree not to sue should the food be bad.
Having worked in the bakery section of a grocery store, we had to throw away all of our out-dated products. The day before, they would be marked down to 50%, but the day they went out, they had to be thrown away. I asked about donating them, but was told that if they donated out-dated food and someone got sick on it, they could then sue the store.
but I do live in Aurora, Colorado, which has dipped year after year. Our home is now worth $20k less than what we paid for it 5 years ago. We were hoping it would have had a little equity by now. Bah!
But I'm having an affair will Bill Gates. He's my sugar daddy.
Actually, my home is about 800 sq feet, but I live in the city of Seattle, which has very high housing costs. I also (brilliantly) bought at the peak of the housing market climb, so my house's value immediately dropped when the market went south a week later. However, Seattle's market hasn't dropped as much as some other housing markets, so I guess I can count that as a blessing of sorts.
Seattle ranks 16th on CNN Money's list of metro areas, but they include Tacoma in that, which significantly drops the cost of our homes. You can't find livable home in metro Seattle for under 400K. Condos, maybe, but not homes.
Good call Andrea. Like I said, not practical for most of us. In the complete article he mentions the housing issue separately. Here's what he says...
Housing is probably the single biggest expense that most people have. I was fortunate enough to find a friend who had a summer home that was largely vacant most of the year. He was always worried about the heating system breaking down during Winter and coming back next Spring to peeling paint and a cracked boiler as happened one year. Even though he had drained all the plumbing, he obviously did not get all of the water out of the hyrdonic heating system. So we came to the agreement that I could live there rent free in exchange for "guarding" the place, as long I paid for property taxes, insurance and utilities. This has worked out very well, and it might be possible for others to come up with a similar arrangement.
So as I said, not entirely practical. Not many of us can do that, and even if we could, would we want to? I'd feel really insecure.
By the way, my mortgage just about fits into $12k a year with some change to spare, so all I can assume is you live in one humungous house! Are your tips on frugality coming from experience, or are you really loaded and living next to Bill Gates? Hmm?
Why is the Bounce in the kitchen with the wine? Is the explanation coming up in a handy video about how to uncork a wine bottle with a sheet of Bounce? 'Cause I tell you what - I could have used that knowledge in high school.
I have no idea what commercials you speak of. But every time I see an alpaca, I imagine how fun it would be to have one. My father, at one point, decided that he wanted to raise alpaca, and tried to convince my mother that they were only the size of jack rabbits. Fortunately, we introduced Mom to Google, so she was able to obtain accurate information and not have 150 head of alpaca roaming around her garden.

Done Aurora. I'll take Texas.
LOL? Still learning this stuff.

Hmmm... this one is so interesting. I think I'm going to try it right now!

"Accounts must be opened by March 15, 2007 to quality for the $25 offer"

I say print this page out and proceed to ask your local bank for your new coins. Would this constitute fraud?
I hope that your dog is OK, and not a victim of the pet food poisoning.
It turns out that the wheat gluten was actually from China. So we can blame them now. Although there aren't any really good songs about blaming China.

you can also use a lighter the same way
as of right now I'm one post away from having all 7 stories in the popular content list. Dang you Bill Bradle, i will thwart thee...lol.

Does this not count living expenses? My mortgage alone is more than double 12K per year.
I used it on my flagging lawn last year, every few weeks, and it revived it and kept it green. So, you're right on both occasions!
So what does it do? Make your grass green? Keep it green? Something with the word green in it?
Thanks.

got me! thanks for the laugh!
My sis is very wholesome, thank you.

...how much do you know about Freeganism and are you available for an interview? I live in Denver too.
