These are really great tips! Money can be one of the most stessful things that a couple faces together. If you can start out on the same page financially, you stand a much better chance of having a successful marraige!
While my wife and I were on the same page about spending when we first got married, it took us years to actually sit down and write a budget together. The net result is that we spent tens of thousands of dollars on things that we still are unable to track. Now that we do a zero-sum budget every month, our savings just keeps growing and we are much happier for it.
Can I bring food into Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park?
If you wish to bring your own food and enjoy an outdoor meal in an ideal setting, there is a complimentary Picnic Area conveniently located outside the Main Entrance to Disneyland Park.
With the exception of food items for Guests with specific dietary restrictions, food or beverage items are not permitted into either of the Disneyland Resort theme parks.
I don't really use eBay, and I'm not sure why. I think I'm afraid of getting a knockoff product, or it could be that I think I'm not going to be able to get the last, winning bid anyway so "why bother?"
I used to use Ebay a lot but it seems in the past year of so half of my purchases turn out to be junk, and I mean stuff you wouldn't sell in a garage sale. Even with pics you never know what you are getting. I also sell my daughters clothes on there, but only the ones that are very nice, not anything that would go into a garage sale or to the mission. I do pretty well on the sales, but not going to be rich off it, with the time I spend on it I break even with buying a couple new items off there. I do not leave bad feedback as I am afraid that the seller will ruin my rating, plus it is a pain to dispute the purchase, so I just chalk it up as a loss and throw in the mission pile. It just seems as of late Ebay has let a lot of ragtag sellers on there and I wish there was a way that your feedback wouldn't show up until the end of the month in a batch so that you wouldn't be penalized for giving a bad review. The seller should not be able to leave feedback unless payment was not received...
I am living in indonesia at the moment and we all deep fry out peanuts on a *low heat* until golden (with chilli, lesser galangal and garlic slices) until brown. (about 7 mins ish). If you can get it, use coconut oil because it is amazing. Do that instead of using peanut butter and you will taste heaven! :)
Using Ebay is a once-in-a-while activity here. There has to be something that I want and be willing to spend some time on it. Although it is fun to win an auction and the rush of adrenalin is fun, a loss is not so fun, especially if it is something that you wanted. I have gotten some things that were important to me on there though, things from my childhood that are no longer available, so that makes me quite happy that there is such a thing as Ebay.
Though I have an Ebay account, I use it sporadically (about once every 3 years) when I decide it is time to de-clutter my home. I also use it to keep an eye open for specific items that I would like to purchase used or on the cheap.
Going to the dollar store or having kids help make decorations are both really good suggestions. There are always so many things you can get at the dollar store for evens like this, even grilling utensils, games to play, cheap napkins (that can even just be plain white) and of course 4th of July themed plates/decorations/party favors. It would be really easy to put on a holiday barbecue with these suggestions, thanks!
I use ebay to buy and sell items. Buying is hit and miss. I generally find that items are more expensive on ebay, but occasionally you can find a good deal on used items. Selling on ebay has been great. I use it as a way to get rid of clutter and pick up some extra cash.
I pay for Netflix, and think it's worth every penny... I have thought about Hulu Plus, but just can't bring myself to pay for it... new shows are free anyway and I don't have to feel like I'm supporting Fox in any way.
Yes, I use ebay to buy and sell. I use it sporadically. I use their sister site half.com to buy books. I usually don't get the deal of the century, but it is better than going to the store or another website. I have made a couple of mistakes over the years and I have had 2 people who haven't sent the items. But eBay is good about refunding me the money. The items I have sold have been great. I make more money than in a garage sale. At a garage sale you aren't going to find the customer that is looking for the item you have like they are on eBay. I definitely recommend eBay.
I use Ebay quite a bit and get great deals. I live in Canada and find that we are behind as far electronics go so I can very often get great things from there.

I like you on Facebook.
Yes, I use eBay infrequently, mostly to sell things. I've bought a couple things here and there too.
YOUR JOB IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT.
I don't pay premium prices for these services, I just stick to basic and it works fine for me.

Am I in the minority here? I find Craigslist far superior to eBay! I just blogged about the reasons I don't use eBay at http://mreverydaydollar.com/sellers-guide-to-craigslist/.
Mr. Everyday Dollar
Definitely talk about your budget as much as you can, don't keep anything bottled up!
Yes I do! Especially half.com.

Liked you guys on FB!
I sometimes use eBay to see if I can get a better idea on a certain item. If so, I click and buy!
I use ebay for almost everything.......
Regarding taking food and/or drink into the park, according to the Disneyland website:

I LOVE ebay and just celebrated my 9th anniversary (I only know this because ebay notified me!)

Hey all,

I do indeed. I use it to buy comic books to fill in gaps in collections and such.
