All jokes aside, Amazon Prime can be amazing, but

All jokes aside, Amazon Prime can be amazing, but it can also lead you to spend a lot of money on things you don't need.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you MUST SHOP today, follow these tips:
1. Make a list of things you need / things you already planned to buy even if they weren't on sale (e.g. christmas presents, wedding decor, baby products, home products)
2. Only buy the items on your list
3. Don't get pressured into buying things just because they are on sale. If you weren't planning to buy them in the first place, you're not getting a 'good deal'

So what do you think? Are you going to shop Amazon Prime today? What's on your list?🛍

There are so many things to remember when you own

There are so many things to remember when you own a home, and it is CRITICAL that you legally protect yourself and your finances when you hire an outside contractor to come to your home to do any kind of work.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By following these steps, you're making it much more likely that you won't be sued if someone were to get hurt on your property, that you'll get the finished product that you're hoping for, that you're in compliance with your city's rules, and if there are any problems, you'll be able to refer back to the contract that was signed by both parties.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In just our 8 months of owning our home, we had to hire a contractor to fix our chimney, we're hiring a plumber to fix a drain issue next week, we're hiring a contractor to install a radon remediation system and we'll likely have to hire an electrician to make a few updates we want. These projects can get pricey quickly, so it's important that you hire reputable people that you can count on to get the job done.

If you own a home or plan to buy a home in the future you're going to want to save this post to come back to! 🏡

Year after year we see couples funding their Chris

Year after year we see couples funding their Christmas with their credit card 😥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your loved ones do not want you to go into debt so they can open a Christmas present. There is still time to prepare for the gift-giving season:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️Make a list of people you really want to get a present for.
✔️Decide how much you want to spend on each person.
✔️Add up the total and divide by 12
✔️That will equal what you need to save each week to cash flow your Christmas gifts!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And if you run out of funds, hand write them a thoughtful card! There are so many ways to show people you love them than just buying material items.

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?!🎄
