What Happen!!

                                                   Hello, My Cheap Cheetah Family

 What happen!! I seem to have missed the whole month of May, not saying anything to you. Sorry about that, but I got so caught up in things. That I forgot to be a cheapskate. which sometimes happens, especially when you live in expensive New York, like me. But I did find something interesting I wanted y you to see and tell me about your thoughts on. 

Is it just me, but one person spending a billion dollars (which he reportedly earned boxing) on crazy stuff is a cheapskate/ frugal person's nightmare?  Now they say he's broke. Share your thoughts.

To Expensive

                                                     Hello, My Cheap Cheetah Family

How are you today? Happy April. This week, I wanted a taste of my childhood and craved some  Carvel ice Cream. I used to love the frozen bonnets and flying saucers when I was younger. So, I went to my local Carvel's, and to say I went into sticker shock at the prices. You just don't know.  I know Ice cream in general has gone up in price, but Carvel was crazy.  For a very small bonnet, you know, the sugar cone with chocolate ice cream or vanilla coated in chocolate or a red coating. They wanted 3.99 each for them, and their flying saucers were $2.99 each. Which were also small. I had to back out of the store slowly because their prices were ridiculous. I don't mind treating myself once in a while. But I can buy a gallon of ice cream for what they want for a small ice cream bonnet or even a flying saucer. Was I wrong to walk out of Carvel, letting my cheapness take over? Should I have just let my treat yourself side wind and pay for something that I craved because I wanted to remember my childhood? What do you think?

Happy April Family

 
                                                        Hey There Cheap Cheetah Family

Happy April! What are you doing so far this month to save money? I was thinking since I'm around that age, should I collect Social Security or wait until I can get more money when I'm older? I see that if you're at that stage where you're deciding on whether to collect social security retirement at 62 or later. This all depends on your finances. If you need the money, go and get it. You paid into it, and it's your money, but if you can wait a bit longer to collect without it hurting you financially, then I say wait maybe an extra year or two. The increase in your waiting time won't be that big, but every bit of extra money makes a difference. At least in my book it dies. So, weigh your options when it comes to figuring out when you want to collect your Social Security retirement check and see what suits you better.

Now The Wait

                                                     Hello, My Cheap Cheetah Family

Sometimes it pays to wait. What I mean by that is living in NYC. They wanted everybody to purchase a $55 large garbage can from them with their logo on it. A notice went around last year about purchasing it. I say I'm not buying anything. My trash can is the same as theirs, except without the logo on it. Besides, I'm too cheap to purchase a garbage can for that much. Anyway, they sent another letter stating that you can get a refund if you purchase the garbage can. Now it makes the can free. So, I purchased the garbage can because if you don't have it by April of 2026, they will fine you. Thanks, New York! So now I'm just waiting on the refund of $55 dollars. Which will take about 6 weeks to get. But so, what, I got the garbage can free, that's all that mattered.

Also surprised I found out I overpaid my property taxes in the tune of $217 dollars. That's another refund I'm waiting on. At this rate, 2026 is looking to be the refund year for me. What about you?
