RE: What Can You Buy For $10.00 in Your Market Friday?

in Market Friday2 years ago

Wow, those cherries had to be a good portion of your bill I would bet. They aren't cheap. Those are some nice looking roma's though. I might hit the meat market on my way home, but I guarantee I will be spending much more than $10!

Actually, the cherries were just at the market and not part of my $10.00 haul. You are right, but, I cannot figure out why cherries have always been expensive!

Well, you can do the meat market and I am sure you can show what part of your purchase was $10.00! :) It is interesting most Indonesians thought it was too much money and the rest of the world is struggling to find things, so it is pretty interesting. I didn't even get to put mine in, my purchase anyway. I was actually up most of the night as one of the pipes in one of the bathrooms burst (serious! bust and was spraying everywhere and flooded a bedroom, walking closet, and the ceiling in the walkway out to the laundry room area of the kitchen and garage; all in less than five minutes.) So I had the mitigating people out there for hours and hours... well into the dark of night, so I was doing MarketFriday until 4 am... and never got my items up that I bought. Pfft. Do you know how I complained about doing it earlier than the night of posting? I think I finally learned my lesson. After 5 years!

Anywho! Good luck with your meat purchase and thanks always for your support!

#MarketFriday loves you!

Oh gosh, that is horrible! I am sorry you have to deal with that. I don't wish flooded rooms on anyone! It was probably one of the worst experiences my wife and I have had in the past five years.

It was a nightmare and the mitigation team ripped out part of a bedroom, kitchen, and garage ceiling and pulled out all the wet insulation. Plus the floor to the bathroom, is a ceramic tile that matches the tub tiles. All in less than ten minutes of water, but, plenty of it.

The mitigation team will be back tomorrow to check the giant dehumidifiers in each of those rooms, plus giant fans. It may be all dried out by then, but, so many more contractors to come.

Oi!!

Oh, yeah! Pretty darn miserable. But, this too shall pass.

Did they have to bring an electrician in to patch directly to your breaker panel for the dehumidifiers? My buddy owns a handyman company and when I showed him the total bill and what the mitigation team charged for the subs to come in he said "man, I need to start doing insurance work". We got lucky that our insurance covered about $10k of the total cost.

Ours will most likely be covering the entire thing with a $500 deductible. There is 220 in the garage which the kitchen is off there and the dehumidifiers upstairs are 110. Seem to be working well and they will be back tomorrow to check the progress. The insurance company is paying that portion of the electric bill, with the approximation from regular service.

The subs the insurance company sends are always awesome. I had hurricane damage in one of the houses down south and they were amazing in their coverage and their quick hustle to make everything right.

We will see how it goes.
