I did something along this line. I had a grandfathered-in AT&T Unlimited Data plan and had my husbands metered data plan. The total for the two lines was around $120/month.

I had heard a lot of buzz around Ting and did some considerable research. I decided I would turn the data off on our phones and stick to using…

I was really hoping it was copies of the games for a newer system (3DS/WiiU), but it's just the strategy guides. Not that they aren't gorgeous and well-loved (I think I wore every copy I ever bought into tatters), but they just aren't the same if you don't have the games, too.

My husband did stop when he saw the pond, so he has that much going for him. From the sound of things, he was going the speed limit posted on the GPS (60mph) on the ATV road. Thankfully he had a decent pickup truck and it could handle the terrain, but still.

Here recently, I usually print out a map from google or bing. In the past, I would have used a big Rand McNally Atlas that I adored if I was travelling in a remotely familiar region—or requested a triptik from AAA if we were heading into unfamiliar regions on a vacation.

And yeah, you would have to buy a new atlas…

Exactly

My husband is one of those people that will follow GPS blindly. One trip he made at night and hadn't taken the opportunity to update his GPS. He ended up driving on an ATV trail and almost drove into a pond.

I much prefer a paper map when I'm co-piloting. At least on a map I can tell if the road we're turning onto…

I was going to say that this also works with small children! I'm glad there's a parent here to back up my aunt skills.

He's a black puggle (pug/beagle). Very hyper, looks like Nibbler, sounds like Nibbler. We adopted him with the name Puggles, but that is a horrible name. I posted his picture in this thread.

I would like to see a picture of your Bender. :)

He sadly only has two eyes:

I always play on my dog's fear of abandonment. I turn away from him, walk away, and yell "Bye Nibbler! See you later!" This is the same thing I say when I leave him alone in the house. It never fails to get him to race back to me. Then, of course, I tell him he's a good boy and give him lots of love.

My husband and I bought a second home that's significantly smaller than our first. I think it might have about 600sqft of livable space with a small, damp basement and cramped attic. This is about half the space of our previous home. It's just the two of us, so it's perfect. However, there was so much stuff from our…

Went to high school with this guy. I always thought he'd go places, but I guess "go drinking at a Browns' game" didn't quite match up to what I had imagined.

I have this exact same toothbrush and I adore it. I can understand switching from manual to electric, but the Dual Action Oral B $10 brush does such an amazing job, I can't see spending an extra $140.

I run a blog that talks about an obscure hereditary mutant gene (1 in 10,000). There's not a lot of information out there about the condition that is the result of having that gene, so I figure any information I can provide about my experiences and experiences of other people with the gene would be helpful for…

I have used google's custom map-maker many times in the past. Yesterday, I thought of a new way to use their map maker and tried to find the function—to no avail. I guess I was just looking a day early. I'm glad it's back but I must say I never noticed it was missing.

My husband and I have similar sleep schedules, but he snores loudly and I tend to fight while sleeping. He said he'd wake up with a sore side (most likely from me trying to roll him onto his side and/or swatting at him to stop snoring). Eventually we both realized we slept better in separate beds in separate rooms.

Now…

I had a similar problem. I finally found a job after being unemployed for a year. I could tell it wasn't a healthy work environment, but I needed a job and it was at a university department so they had decent benefits. The drive was a half-hour, but it wasn't an unpleasant drive if I took a round-about way. The…

I was in a bad situation and had to move from a house into an apartment. I wanted to have a garage sale, but the thought of pricing anything was overwhelming. I just told people to pay whatever they wanted for whatever they wanted—no negotiation. One guy offered me $5 for a weed wacker. I sad "okay". Then he said,…

I would love to see recommendations for lady-razors (or electric razors that are suitable for legs). I've been contemplating one, but I'm not sure even where to start.

After wearing it for a year, I had to get the grooves in the guard smoothed out. I think it was a good decision for me, but I'm not sure how this one night guard is supposed to last me my whole lifetime. I was told at the dentist that insurance would help cover the cost of one guard per person per lifetime. I had to…
