Coupons Are Sexy?

September 21, 2011

I’ve been on this coupon kick lately, so I thought I’d try something new here at Budgets Are Sexy :) I’m not sure how cool it is really, haha…, but maybe y’all can tell me after checking it out? Maybe you’ll find it helpful too? A part of me thinks it’s just like all those other billion coupon code sites out there, but then again […]

Are You Good at Returning Things?

September 20, 2011

If there’s one thing I usually hear over and over again from people, it’s that they need to get better about returning things. They always say it’s on their list, and they’ll be getting to it soon, but something tells me it never actually gets done ;) Which is kinda weird to me cuz it’s more MONEY in the bank!! And if you’re not using […]

Our Cat Didn’t Die! Our Cat Didn’t Die!

September 19, 2011

For anyone following me on Twitter, you’ll know our 13 y/o cat – Bob – was barely hanging on to life this weekend. Thankfully he survived (this round, at least), but it’s always scary when your pets keep getting older & sicker, and you end up visiting the vets office more than you do Starbucks ;) You don’t wanna think about the impact it has […]

Property Tax Bill Almost Gave me a Heart Attack!

September 15, 2011

Have y’all got your property tax bill recently? Not sure if they’re staggered out to homeowners individually, or there’s some shotgun style they do them all in, but either way ours just came in and it almost gave me a heart attack! I mean, I know that our home value’s been going down or at least leveling off over time, but this number seems pretty […]

My Secret Loan From Mom & Dad (True Story)

September 14, 2011

None of you know this yet, but I’ve been keeping a rather salacious secret from you when it comes to my financials ;) I don’t know why I did it at first, other than seeing how long I can keep something hidden for, haha… (and here you thought I spilled *everything!*) but after a while I guess I just kinda got used to it and […]

I Finally Got Health Insurance!

September 12, 2011

Can you believe it? Only a couple weeks since blogging about how stupid I was too – I’m pretty impressed with myself ;) And also with the site a lot of y’all sent me to: eHealth Insurance! By FAR the best (and quickest) thing I’ve done in quite some time, I was kinda shocked. Especially since the site does come across as kinda spammy, haha… […]

I Paid 25 Cents For The Toilet And I Liked it.

September 9, 2011

(As sung by Katie Perry. The Remix.) Haha… seriously though, I paid 25 cents to use the bathroom in Santa Monica last week! How crazy is that? I thought the only times you had to worry about getting jacked at restrooms were at trucker stops? ;) And also Europe. (Oh! And Korea too – I once paid $1.00 worth in Won when I least expected […]
