    The disparity in prices for healthcare services is astounding!

    Try going out of country. It will make you sick how much they pay vs us. I got LASIK eye surgery in Colombia. I went to the top physician there. I paid a total $1100 for everything. Here I was quoted $5500.

    Grocery Shopping in Orlando for our 9 day stay

    Avoid walmart, especially in that area. One time we were there I had to make an emergency run for diapers and Walmart was the closest store. Took me 2 minutes to get to isle and grab pack, waited in line for close to 30 min to just check out. Publix is the way to go or possibly Trader Joe’s if...

    Frameless glass shower question

    We have some sort of protect and on our doors but still use a squeegee after every shower and the cleaning lady polishes the glass once a week. They look new. Key is to make sure you remove the water after every shower. We also have a water softener on the home so that may also help.

    Baby shower

    Oh no. Baby showers/wedding showers/birthdays/etc. even Christmas Eve we go all out. It's a big party until 2am. Looking forward to it this year since I don't have to host it (typically we celebrate down in key west but due to the hurricane and damage to our home down there, someone else will...

    Baby shower

    This is the same thing. She has a large family. I think there will be about 60 people at the party (coed). Sound like we may be from similar cultures. $500 does not cover much, maybe the beer. They are going to get so much baby stuff and they have cousins giving them hand me downs. From what I...

    Baby shower

    If you knew who they were, you would try to keep it a secret. As far as the mother knows, she is helping. She would never know. I have known this family for a very long time. The mother only takes in about $500 month from SS. she lives with her daughter, son in law and 2 sisters in a small apt...

    Baby shower

    Exactly. It's to help out the new mom. Does not matter who hosts it. What I don't like is those moms who have a baby shower for every kid. We know someone with 5 kids (all boys). She hosted her own baby shower for each kid. Whatever happened to hand me downs. These kids are all about a year...

    Baby shower

    Well this is actually a surprise. The nanny's 2 sisters are going to help decorate the house and the mother is going to make a few dishes that her daughter loves. We have catering company come out to make Paella on-site. Everyone can watch it being made. It's really good and fun. They also do...

    Baby shower

    Yea we just don't want to give it back. They are like a second family to us. We would be insulting her if we give it back. I figure if we pull her daughter to the side and explain what happened then it will be ok (she can use the $$ towards something else or open a savings acct for the baby).

We have someone who comes to our house once a week to clean/laundry/cook/etc. she has been with us since my daughter was a few months old (she was our nanny until daughter started school). She is pregnant and due at end of December. She is not going to be with us...

    Private VIP tour

    That is the plan in the morning. Nice and easy. We are all booked. I got a call an hour after booking from the tours dept. asked if we had any requests. They have a tour guide who speaks Italian so she is going to take us around. They are setting up a few character lunches for us and the girls...

    Private VIP tour

    Ah ok so it's more like a quick service meal with them. Not sure if I would ever want that job. The amount of butt kissing that must be done.
