Trying to figured out how we can scrape up the money to visit my parents and my son for his birthday on May 31st. They live 4 hours away. A friend will take us there and back but needs $300 to do it for gas and his time.
$300 is a lot of money to come up with! I am stressed because I am not sure if we will be able to come up with it in time.
Hopefully we will get the stimulus check before then, that will help out a lot.

I really hope you can get the money together to do it. I hate that the friend is charging you so much though. That seems excessive.

Well, he will be driving 4 hours there, 4 hours back... then will pick us up which will be another 4 hours there and back. That is 16 hours of driving total, plus gas. I think it's fair.

@AngelisaQT Ah okay, yeah I guess this is true. Is there anything you can sell to help you get the money together?

@AngelisaQT yes all will be well. But I can say it's expensive abit or it's because of the high price of gas?

@Laurakemunto It will be a total of 16 hours driving, it's for his time as well.

Have you tried to take any surveys with survey site? You can make decent money with those. I do surveys every day online among other things but I do quite well. Worth a try.
They keep dragging their feet on the stimulus of course.

I am not good with surveys, I'm always getting disqualified or something. I just tried to join a survey site someone else suggested and they wouldn't even accept my application to join.
