Has anyone heard of fundable.com?

just2crazygirlz @just2crazygirlz (2479) • United States 19 Mar 08

It is an online fundraising place. You pledge money, but the money isn't actually taken from you until the goal is met. The person who starts the fundraiser, sets a goal for the money amount. If they don't reach that goal, no...

Question on Buying A House - How Much Do You Offer? - Do You Offer More or Less?

schulzie @schulzie (4061) • United States 22 Jul 08

Ok everyone, I have a question for you all. I have bought two houses in the past and feel that I was taken advantage of with the purchase price. So, my question is this: When you see a house that you love and you are ready to...

mommyathome I would offer anywhere between $10,000 - $15,000 thousand less than the asking price. This gives you some room to increase the offer if necessary. With the market as bad as it is tight now, you may get lucky and the seller accept your first offer! Good Luck!

How often do you feed your kids?

foxyfire33 @foxyfire33 (10005) • United States 22 Jul 08

I know this might seem like an odd question from me. Surely after 6 kids I should know how and when to feed them. But apparently I don't. See I always thought that their little stomachs could not hold much and that it was much...

mommyathome I try to feed my son at least three times a day. I say try because he is a very picky eater and will only eats when he wants to. Some days he gets three meals in and other days I am luck if I get him to eat one meal.

Do you judge a book by it's cover?

reinydawn @reinydawn (11643) • United States 22 Jul 08

Or in this case "Do you judge a discussion by it's Title?" I'm guilty of this sometimes. I'll read the title and if it doesn't catch my eye I wont always read the discussion. And sometimes I'll only read the first few lines...

microdermabrasian

spoiled311 @spoiled311 (5500) • Philippines 22 Jul 08

HI guys! The process of microdermabrasion in its simplest terms is taking out old skin and brining out the new--in the gentlest manner. I saw a Pond's kit tonight and I am tempted to buy. It cost P1300 (pesos), around 30$, but...
