I'll probably have to look into doing that.

I'm still hoping to get in on the pre-order for those SDCC Jem dolls, but I'm also now currently on the hunt for a complete Kelly Super Slide playset. Since they were a water toy meant for the bath, most of them people didn't survive. Interestingly enough, the two I've seen come up for sale are actually the black/African American version. If you know anything about Kelly, or Barbie in general, from this era, you know that two things are true: 1.) The black dolls are rarer, and 2.) They're always more expensive. These two actually aren't INSANELY overpriced (Yes, one of them is around $65, but that's not THAT crazy for a Kelly playset from this era that's new in box.) Just a funny little detail I noticed.

You should. It's easy to do for all 3 agencies. I worked for TRW Credit Data (now Experian) before the ability to freeze your credit report - it's been a game changer that more people should take advantage of.

If you have to decide between the two I'd say go for the Kelly playset, that seems to be a passion of yours. In this economy there's half a chance the Jem dolls won't sell out because it's not super popular like blind box things.

And I've been down the stuck living with someone who was financially irresponsible and only one (barely) working car in the household route. We had a family talk about it, did the monthly math, and divided things equally. Should you be able to save for or finance a car then look in to a former rental, ours is the nicest car we've ever owned.

I'm not able to drive because of a variety of health issues, including severe anxiety around even being in a car and blood sugar issues.

I'm torn on the Jem or Kelly thing . . . We also just had to get a new fridge today. @-@ Adding that to the "What ELSE can go wrong?" list.
