Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

I normally just throw stuff like that away. I donate my nice stuff that I don't want anymore.

I throw a lot of gwp makeup bags out too. I used to save them, but they take up so much space.

oh well. I know there are some places that would gladly take that stuff. I think women's shelters for example.

Next week! Someone there got some mailer! Going to keep my eyes peeled look around Good thing I returned those yucky lotions and mists!
Can't wait! I don't own any of them. bounce Wish Angels Card code was for Angels or VS bra, not Incredible this month. Maybe I'll pick up some clothes when I see the towel if I want it.

BTW... don't know if that code was posted yet or not but this month's Angel Card code is $15 off Incredible when you use your Angels Card. SP1228609

I know. I need a bigger house to store everything. I downsized from 4500 to 3000 and I have no room. We sold ours in Alabama so I'm wanting a bigger home here, but just tired of moving. I'll get back organized one day. Right now the clutter stresses me out laugh out loud.

http://www.shoprunner.com/

It's a site that gives free 2 day shipping on select sites with a paid membership. A lot of us got them free a few months ago on some hd. It's kind of like prime but for more sites.

My DBF has THREE guitars, and he doesn't even know how to play them!!! Faint He owns all 3 of the current major consoles and more of the previous ones. To his defense, his XBox was given to him by work, so that's cool. He's up to his eyes in video games on all three consoles. And I'm not going to get started with his CD collection (this is all because his dad is into music and works as a DJ on the side). I just don't think his parents instilled any values or structure to any of their children. As you know, they're from middle of nowhere in WI, so I'm sure that's affected his thinking too. Whereas in a Chinese household, everything is really structured. So I get pissed off when he tells me it's going to be YEARS until we can buy a house. Um no - if you're saving 90% of what you make, of that, 50% to loans, 40% to whatever, I think it will be doable. But I get the - "Oh no, it's impossible." I think he needs a financial advisor. He doesn't appear to live the high life, but wtf, where is his money going?!
. . ..
3 guitars and he doesn't play? LMAO Damn. My DH has 2 hobbies- guitar and photography. They're expensive, but luckily at some point- the equipment gets redundant so he stops being so interested if they've only changed 1 feature b/w new & old models. I'm proud to say I have raised his standards for purchases .

Sorry about the boy bias in your family. My mom was told she should go to college to find her a husband. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) I see how logistically it makes sense if you plan on turning yourself into a breeding factory, but welcome to the 21st century Dad! That's not the only option for your daughter. She can stand on her own because you raised her right, it's a compliment on his skills as a father. He needs to raise his expectations of how he thinks he did Big Grin You can work AND breed. Lots of people do it, most I think.

Anyway you two would consider living together before the wedding? DH and I bought our condo while we were engaged. When living together, we set up a joint account at ING ( we also have separate accounts there that we can fund the joint account with). I showed DH how much money I had saved up which dwarfed his. I was a freaking grad student and the 20% down all came from ME. Crazy! ha. I think that changed his perspective too. Live together, create a shared bank account you pay the rent with... maybe opens to door to more finance talk and looking at each others' numbers.

Quote from annicus :

it's hard to not be defensive bc it is totally a touchy subject. dbf and i are working to consolidate our finances now, and while we are more or less on the same page, he has a lot more saved up bc he makes more and has been working for twice as long as me. for some reason i'm still scared when he peeks over at my banking. i've saved a considerable amount now, but it's nowhere near his. so i'm embarrassed by it.
. . .
Yeah, I made 1/5 of what my fiancee made and it was awkward at first. We started out by creating a joint bank account at ING for wedding expenses. I contributed 20% and he contributed 80%... that's how we still do it; He pays the mortgage, I pay HOA and utilities. Now that we have rent too- I pay it but he transfers money to my account every month Wink I was paranoid about it, but DH didn't give it any thought- it's just simply "our money". Give it time, salary discrepancy is really only an issue if you both make it one.

I'm assuming you are in Long Island, so I googled "Long Island Women's Shelters"
