    Unexpected Expense, whoa!

    Well I don't know about other filers but when my atty said all DMI he was not kidding! I work really hard to keep my kid going but I got myself backed into a corner this month!

    Maybe this is a vent thread but hoping it has some value.

    I have old old old furniture and have been needing to buy for so long. I kept putting it off because it's so expensive. But I found a couch and a double bed for 400. At good will and snatched them up. My laptop died, so a few weeks ago I bought one at Wallmart for 320.! This is killing me. Really scrimping to catch up. So guess what?

    Tonight I come home and keys won't work! The tumblers are jacked up. 250.00 later!!!!! He could not pick the lock so he drilled it and completely took me to the bank! An absurd amount!!!

    I had to pay it, then 30.00 for a lock to replace it my friend put in!

    So that is so much money out and now we are scrimping and glad that I am so frugal most of the time that after a few checks I can hopefully bounce back!

    It's so tight!!!! Be prepared!!!!

    Sorry to hear of your recent challenges, but I am glad to see that you had the coin to just pay for what needed to be done. I know it makes life rough for a spell, but doesn't it feel good to know its all paid and not collecting uncontrollable amounts of interest.

      Yes! I hate interest as much as everyone on this board does! We have all learned so much. Just be super frugal and when this happens, if the damage isn't too bad you can make it. I just wish I shopped around before I chose this shiester! :-(. I thought I had learned that basic rule! ;-)
