Part of me is "people can't be that dumb" yet these are probably the same people who say the answer to rising cost of goods is "for the government to print more money" which was an actual response to me...

We don't discuss politics(government) or religion in here

This isn't either, economics is simply, economics; and this is what was actually said to me the other day.

I had to get premium,which is really too expensive, but now I know I have enough for any emergency.
Hope you find some easily!

I haven’t bought anything but 87 octane (the lowest, and least expensive) for decades, and have never had an issue with any of my rides.

It is extremely expensive and I don't really drink that much when I go. This was during the F & W and when you are in your in your early 20's and with a best friend and also mom who is a blast you go for the drinking around the world at least once (well twice for us) during our 10 day trip. Our regular vacations I usually just stick with having a drink with my meal in the evening and if I am at the pool I may have once. Most of the time I drink water which is also expensive.

Yep, I definitely drink more water at WDW than booze. But, I have never paid for it... I have always gotten the complimentary ice water cups from QS places on walk-up.
Have saved a bunch during our trips...

Yep, but, with a 30+ mile round trip commute to and from the firm each weekday, I pass several of them...funny how much the price can vary across that 15 miles...!!!!!

I was just going to post something like that!

And now that I've quoted you @Cesar R M , how is the job going? Any luck on finding a new one yet?

Just about the same cycle.
Job post opens, send, they review, want to contact, they find either I'm partially deaf or from Mexico and poof.. gone

So Hershey just removed their mask mandate for fully vaccinated people. I have no idea how they plan on enforcing it and no idea how to tell B that no, we're not going this weekend and probably not for a while.

They could do it easily by asking for the vaccination card on entrance and then giving a special card for those vaccinated?

Same here. There is a saying " if you're not cheating, you're not trying. " I would substitute it for " if you're not saving, you're not trying.".

Today is the first round. Her first team competes at 11:45 and the second 12:30. Pretty close between the two. Gonna be rough. They have to be in the top 5 to move on to finals. There are 26 in one division and 36 in the other. What happens, happens.

I was watching Girl Meets World with my daughter last night and it was the one with Riley trying out for cheerleading. It made me think of you and your daughter and I mentioned you were at Disney right now for a competition and E thought that was really cool. Hope it went well and they make the top 5!! That seems kind of unfair since you said this is also including groups from last year's canceled competition, right? How sad that they didn't adjust for that. Is it all on one day or do they have to wait for several days for all the groups to be finished to find out if they are through to the finals?

Popping in to say that one of youngest’s teams made it to finals. Top five of 26 today. They were third. Finals will have 30 teams so they are top 30 in the nation right now in that division. The other team probably won’t make it. Youngest fell at the end of that routine, but the raw score was too low to make it anyway.proud of her for brushing it off and doing a perfect routine in a tougher level 45 minutes later.

That's AWESOME! Congrats to her!! When are the finals?

@Willmark , how is your new vehicle? I remember how excited you were when you bought it a few months ago, and just wondering if you're still happy you bought it? (Hopefully, yes.)
