Probably really early to be thinking about this but was wondering how to save money on Christmas gifts. Do you have any frugal gift ideas for teenagers? I have a son that just turned 20 and a daughter that is 15. Anybody have any really awesome ideas out there. Thanks.

Hi! I am a waitress and the place where I work has been taken over by new management. Since then my job situation has gone down the tubes. I worked at this place for a year before they came and I had no problems with my boss or work hours before. In fact they would ask me to work more hours at times. When I worked for the previous owners I worked 30-35 hours a week. But now with the new owners ...

It is that time of year again where our income is a little greater so then I like to stock up on items before winter comes and hopefully these items will last me through the harsh winter months. I look for these items on sale of course and was wondering what are your must haves that you keep in your house. I guess currently on my list are AAA batteries for sure (maybe some AA too) and some 40 &...

Today in fact when I found out my hours at work were not cut in 1/2 but in 1/2 again. Working only 6 hours a week when I used to work 30 just made me feel so lost and defeated and not knowing what to do about it. What do I do when I feel this way? That is a good question. I usually call up my best friend and rant & rave to her about my problems. And believe me over the past year she has hear...

Such a sad, sad situation. I was afraid to let my very young children (under 6) play in the back yard without my supervision. It just really turns my stomach to think of those little ones home alone needing food & care and no one to give it to them. The poor baby needing changing probably has diaper rash like you wouldn't believe. I am usually the type of person to say "but walk a mile in the o...

My $20 is not tax free. We have to declare it on our time card or we do not get a paycheck. As I mentioned I do not mind giving the cook some of the tips more I did not like how the new policy was stated. Question for you - as a bartender did you have to give the cook some of your tips? Because our bartender also has to give the cook a% of her tips. Which in some ways I do not feel is right...

My kids got me hooked on Restaurant City. I think it is fun to redecorate my restaurant, hire people, etc. I work for a restaurant in my real life as a waitress but on this game I made myself the chef with a chef's hat and everything:D. Also have been a farkle addict too. I think a person needs to be able to relax and play these games. Helps ease the stress of the world.
