What about requesting a paper bill. It might give you some breathing room. Or pad the budget 10% for juggling purposes?

Talking about being nickel and dimed to death welcome to my world


We just got a two month water bill on it is the 4th raise for the sewage part. In January our 2 month bill ran around 58.00 It is now 97.00


Newspaper went from 16.25 a month to 17.50


Cable bill without renting moves went from 76.00 to 78.00


I saved on the homeowners so my mortgage went down 2.50 a month


Homeowners on the other house went from 26.something to 36.00 something a month


And we are expecting at least a 40.00 if not more on our health insurance if they don't find out that Raymond can get medicare if the state does then it will cost us at least 99.00 more plus what ever it will cost me more to get health insurance on my own.


And we are getting a 1.5 raise in July for our retirement which after taxes is going to be around 35.00


I'm I going in the hole or not.


Oh I went into Fashine bug for there 50% sale I need gowns Oh they were 50% off but they raised their prices from around 24.00 to 36.00 and half of that was around 18.00 for the same thing I bought for 12.00 6 months ago. So I walked out.

But the cable company wants $39.99 for installation and will only do four jacks in the house.

When we went with the cable phone instead of changing the jacks I bought cordless phones for about $65/75. They are 1 base phone that gets plugged into the jack and 3 phones that plug into regular outlets. Maybe that would work for you?
