I give no fucks about garage placement, but it looks like you're going for a slab, and not a proper basement. That offends me mightily.

JEEVES420 posted:Here in Texas nobody builds basements for two reasons. One you only have to go down past the freeze line and unlike in the north where that is couple feet down, we only have to go down like 6in so they are not as cost effective as a slab and building above ground. Second the ground moves like no other down here so a basement is just a bad idea. Foundation repair is almost guaranteed to be needed and a basement would mean cracked walls/much worse structure problems. Yeah, I figured you just lived somewhere where they aren't common/advised. I'm not a homeowner, but if/when I do become one, I'm glad I live in the northeast where basements are the norm, because I loves me a basement. Like...where do you put all your stuff? You have a garage, I guess, but that's where cars go! I guess you can just make the garage larger, but a basement is more efficient in terms of square footage. But then I guess with less rain, and pretty much no snow, a garage for the car isn't needed as much.

I finally caved and bought a KitchenAid mixer: 5-qt Artisan series. I was this close to buying one off of Woot last week for over $200, and I'm very glad I didn't pull the trigger because there's a store on eBay selling refurbished mixers for $160 right now. Same model that Woot had, and even more color choices (I went with Caviar...basically black with pearlescent.) (And woot's were refurbs, too.) And I had a bunch of money sitting in my payPal account from selling a few things in SA-Mart, eBay, and some money that was sitting in my CafePress account for like three years that I forgot about. I was set up to only deposit when I hit $100, and the balance was $95, so I lowered the threshold to $50. So I didn't have to spend anything out of pocket, so it's kind of like it's free.

A rubber-bristled broom: Both nylon and corn husk brooms are terrible. Hair just collects in them until it randomly decides to drop it in a corner or the floor. And God-forbid trying to use one on an even slightly damp floor, which is pretty loving common in bathrooms and kitchens.

Toilet seats, even public ones, are pretty innocuous as far as "germs" go, anyway. You aren't going to get anything from a toilet seat, barring the other person literally making GBS threads, bleeding, or spitting on it...and you having an open wound on the back of your thigh/butt cheek and then also not noticing the poo poo/spit/blood. The bathroom door handle is far worse. The number of people who don't wash their hands... And besides which, what makes you think you can't clean a wood toilet seat?

Just got a new auto insurance policy from AmeriPrise through Costco. Saving a BUTTLOAD over Geico. I got rid of my collision coverage, because I drive a beat-up 03 Corolla, so it's not needed, but even if I kept that, I'd be saving money. Went from $370 per 6-month policy to $117. If I had kept everything exactly the same (which, as said, was just collision coverage with a $500 deductible,) it would have been ~$230. Kept my comprehensive coverage, only because I live in a neighborhood where there's a greater than zero chance of my car getting broken into.

 The first DLC for Dark SOuls 2. Really, really annoying that North American PS3 users didn't get access to a season pass to save a few bucks, though.  Unless there was, and my search for "Dark Souls 2" on the SEN for some reason didn't show it.

 I also got a 2 TB hard-drive to replace the 500 GB one is ships with. Best part is, it was all essentially free. Since May, I've been doing things like Swagbucks, Bing Rewards, and Perk.tv to get Amazon gift cards. Had over $400 worth, and then I cashed in a big jar of change at the Coinstar for another $100 worth of Amazon giftcard.

No picture, but I bought some earplugs for a concert this weekend. Wish I cared more about my hearing when I was younger...already have some high-range hearing loss, probably from concerts I went to in my early 20's.  Protect your ears, young goons. Wear ear plugs to concerts. Wear earplugs on a motorcycle. Especially if, by some chance, you're a tard and are only wearing a half-helmet, or even more tarded and wearing no helmet. Will you look like a dork? Yeah, a little bit. But 10-20 years later, when you're with a group of your friends just shooting the poo poo, and you're the only one not constantly saying, "What?" or "Come again?" You'll be thankful.

crosshatch posted:Got a couple new dressers so my girlfriend and I can stop living out of suitcases and dumpster furniture: Nice. I, too, need a new dresser after nearly ten years using a cheap press-board garage sale one. Shopping for a dresser, and buying a couch and new bed last fall have taught me a very important lesson: Real furniture is loving expensive. I've also needed a bookshelf for about a year, but haven't bought one because again, I refuse to get another cheap POS that will fall into pieces the next time I move. So many books still in boxes from my last move, but whatever. I've also been scouring Craigslist trying to find real stuff that's at least a little less pricey than from a store; perhaps from someone moving or what have you, but even that is hard. About four or five times now I've gone to look at someone's "real wood" dresser or bookshelf for $100-$150 that's clearly veneer over press-board/MDF.

Four of these: Winter is Coming. (Just the tires, not a whole wheel.) Got a good deal from a discount tire place on Ebay...originally about $440, and they had a $100 off any order over $400 promotion going, with free shipping. There also might be a mail in rebate I can get from the manufacturer, though they might not apply to these tires...but if they do, I think that's another $40 back. These are very, very needed for my car...pretty sure it won't pass inspection with the current tires. Parts of them have absolutely no tread left...they don't even work as summer tires, let alone winters.
