Well it's been a few days since my last missive.
We now have electricity,cable and internet set up. It's tricky(and expensive with deposits and all) if you are a new customer and don't have US social insurance(but money talks)
I've spent more time on the phone in the last 4 days than in the last 4 months.
I am still getting used to the prices down here!!! They give away gas( 6 dollars for spending 102 at K mart plus a coupon for 10 dollars of your next $50 and a $20 coupon for your next $100(really), buy one get one free etc.
We picked out our 16 piece dinner setting for $21.00( on sale ) each(we picked out 2 to have a setting for 8) when it rang through it was on sale for $18.00 and then because we spent more than $50
(we bought a vacuum too ) we got $12 off each setting!!! so we paid $18 for two settings(really!!!)(we'll take a picture when we set it out) That right, read it again!!!!
We bought new blinds for the bedroom( cordless and blackout cellulars) so I can sleep past 5-6 am
Today we will move the rest of our totes from the storage unit and we should be totally moved in by Sat afternoon.
We now have a US bank account and are in the process of getting a U.S. Am.Express so we can avoid any transaction fees.
