    Default Moving process

    It's been many years since I've had to start from scratch moving. I remember being 18 and my than boyfriend / baby daddy getting a second job and buying us furnisher piece by piece and family and friends giving us stuff to start our life together. Well nobody is helping me this time and I have another person to look after now.
    So I haven't signed a lease yet. I'm on a short waiting list. I do think I got too excited and put furniture in layaway. I figured if the apartment comes after I finish paying off the furniture I'd just put it in storage for a month or two. I've been picking up little things like a dish rack and dishes.
    Am I doing this wrong?

    So are you locked in to paying for this furniture?

    I think your overpaying for funiture once by doing the layaway thing and then twice for paying to move it into storage then a third time for paying for it to be stored in storage then a fourth time paying for it to be moved from storage to apartment.

    Idk.

    If you already bought the furniture and put it on layaway, isn't it late to be asking whether to do it? Can you cancel the layaway, save the money for moving expenses and after you get the place acquire the furniture?

    I was thinking since I live with family I have more money now than I will when I start paying rent so that's why I put the furniture in layaway first. That's how I remember doing it last time. I guess I was wrong. I mean I can leave the furniture but I'd forfeit a few hundred dollars by doing so. I guess I'd lose just as much if not more keep moving the furniture around.

    Yea.^ Sorry hon. Idk, maybe you could try to sell it once it's outta layaway? I mean, you'd still lose some $, but maybe you could recoup something?

    Can you keep it in layaway until you get into the apartment?

    "A Texan walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. He tells the loan officer that he is going to away on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.
    The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the Texan hands over the keys of his new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank. He produces the title and everything checks out.
    The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
    The bank’s president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the Texan for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari into the bank’s underground garage and parks it there.
    Two weeks later, the Texan returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, “Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multi-millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?”
    The Texan replies: “Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?”

    I have to pay off the layaway by November. They said I can keep it there for free until December 1. I expect to be in my apartment by November or December. That's what the apartment said any way but I haven't signed anything with them yet so idk.

    I appreciate the joke.

    I wonder how he'll like these:

    1) How do you fit a Texan in a matchbox?........ Give him an enema.

    2) Guy walks into a bar and shouts "Ted Cruz is a real jackass." Whereupon the 2 largest bar patrons beat the crap out of him. Guy says "I'm sorry, didn't realize that I'm in Ted Cruz country." Largest patron replies "No son, you're in jackass country."
    I'm right 96% of the time. I don't sweat the other 5% .......................

    I got a personal loan to pay off the furniture. I'll pay off the loan around tax season. Any way when they deliver the furniture should I tip and how much if so?

    Yes, tip the guys. It depends how much they have to move and how many of them there are. I would say about $20.00 per delivery guy if it is 3 rooms or less. If it is more like 5 then maybe go a little higher.
