About a week ago I ordered some stuff from Aeropostale and the estimated delivery date was between the 10 and the 17 I think. When I checked the tracking number on UPS.com it said on the 10th is was in transit to final destination, and it was in town. (I live kind of in a more rural area about 30 minutes out from town) That was yesterday, and there isn't an update and it hasn't come yet. When will it come?! I really want my shoes
Keep checking back on their website. The info given is NOT always correct. I have had times when I have checked the tracking number and it also said in route to final destination, but then at the last minute (apparently) was either bumped from the truck/flight or was re routed by way of west jibip. In general is takes the shipping services about 4 days to get stuff out to us who live in rural areas. And GOD help you if you need to sign (in person) for the delivery, because the site can state the delivery date, so you take off just to be there to sign for the item, then it gets bumped from the truck, so you lose a day at work. Then you call and attempt to go to the shippping facility to sign in person, only to find out that it went out on a truck. Since you are there at the facility, you can't be home to sign for your stuff.

Always, ALWAYS tell senders-in the comment section-that YOU will accept responsibility for the driver just leaving the package-no signature required. Sometimes this helps in trying to get your package-at least you won't have to be there to sign for it! Of course this works ONLY if you live in an area where no one is gonna bother your stuff once it is left AND the shipper does indeed send it with "NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED"-some will and some won't.

my father and my mother had joint account in a bank.but my father passed away this year july.i think he took some loan from some other bank and was repaying the loan with interest with the joint account bank through ECS system .since my dad died we changed the joint account to a single account to my mother name .will the repaying amount will again pass through the same ECS system from the joint account bank [now changed to single] or better can we change the remaining money into fixed deposit so that it cannot be taken na.please help me friends
Yes, take the money aside and put it in a fixed deposit if you don't want the bank to clear funds through ECS
But how is the loan going to be repaid. Bank may have marked a lien on the funds against the loan.
Be upfront with the bank as to repayment of the loan

I went to buy this item on ebay, listed in American dollars. At the time, ebay showed the item converted into canadian dollars and I had enough to buy the item. When I went to pay, it somehow had a higher converted price so I could no longer afford it. I had already clicked pay now, and paypal began processing. Right now, paypal says the payment has been cleared but ebay says it is still pending. If I mark it as unpaid and the mark it as paid, will I have to pay the full price again?
The Icon on My eBay is worthless. Changing it to unpaid won't do anything.

bring back to the owner…=]

I have heard from some builders that they only offer certain discounts for a new home only if I am not taken there by a realtor. Does anyone know if this is legal?
It's perfectly legal. When you buy a home with the help of a realtor, the seller must pay a commission, which means less money.

A builder tries to give you an incentive so they end up paying less by the incentive they give you; at the end of the day the save more.
I worked with a builder for 13 years, and even though they will tell a potential buyer it costs less without a Realtor, the truth is all of them factor those costs into all their homes before you walk in the door. Think of it this way, as a business owner you factor in all of your expenses for the year, correct? And when you don't spend the money on those expenses, isn't it considered profit?
So when they tell you they are "giving" you something for free, they aren't, they have already factored that into the homes. And while it may not be legal to do this, some do and have not heard of one law suit being filed.
The builder might use a story like this to entice you to think you are getting a good deal. Sellers of all sorts of items play games like this.

But the builder pays the Realtor a fee because they believe it helps them make more money. The Realtor serves a function of marketing the product and if the Realtor does not serve a function then the builder could make a lot more money by never paying them anything at all!!!

After all the builder–like most humans want to keep as much of the profit as possible.

The truth is that when you don't bring a real estate agent then you are not represented in that transaction and at the builders mercy. substantial charges can be added to your side and maybe added to the contract without you ever knowing.
Yes, it is legal. What happens is you get a better deal if you buy directly from them as it saves them an average of 6% (typical commission) but I would definitely have the seller buy you a title policy and close at a title company making sure you get a title policy of insurance for the deed.
Just because it is a new home does not mean that it is perfect. I would have an inspection done by a PROFESSIONAL , LICENSED REAL ESTATE INSPECTOR of your choice and of course at your expense. A survey is just as important to make sure you are buying the home on the property you think you are. People do make mistakes.
PS.I would make an offer of about 15% below asking just to start. Never know unless you ask…
when you buy with a realtor than the seller must pay commission the realtor, say 5% of the sale price so in you can work with just a lawyer, and receive discounts but that's allot of running papers between lawyers and contractor and comes out of your pocket instead, lawyer fees. so if he doesn't pay the commission he is offering discounts or added bonuses to the home, for every house he sells he must pay let's say 17, 000$ in commissions, so he's willing to pass the savings or some of, to you
Yes, it is customary for new developments to pay a flat fee to realtors bringing buyers to the property, therefore in some cases you can work a better deal without the realtor.
Yes, it is legal. The realtor is typically paid by the seller, which would be the builder, and if they don't have to pay a realtor they are more inclined to give you a discount.
Yes, this is true.

I'm hosting a sample sale for cosmetics, and most of the products on sale are mine. However, those are not enough, so I've bought more wholesale. Plus, I plan to charge $10 as an entree fee.
you will not know before you try. test and test!
What makes your products worth $10 to see? How do you advertise your products to attract people and pay you $10 to see them?
noo

I live in San Diego and I'm having a Sweet 16 in May and I really want to rent a hall for the party because all my friends have had quinceaneras and sweet 16's at halls and to avoid looking cheap, I wanted to have mine at a hall too. My parents didn't mind the idea, but renting halls can be quite expensive! My parents' wedding reception hall allowed them to cut costs. Example, like you could cut out a few thousand by crossing off things you don't need the hall to supply you with, like if we can supply our own food, decorations, our own DJ, etc. So my question is do most halls allow you to cut costs such as food, decorations, and DJ's if you can supply it yourself?
My friend rents out a hall at his tavern and he has different price ranges.. First comes the cost of the room…Then if food -entertainment-or other services are needed the cost goes up…Your options may be limited since most of your guests will not be of drinking age -anywhere that serves liquor may be out.Times are tough for everyone—I would certainly shop around and ask the hall-owners.Most would rather make a little less then have it empty and make nothing.

Hi Dear

It will depend on the Income if you are talking about Income Tax

Be prepared to work from day 1. Make sure that you are organized and DO NOT, whatever you do, get behind on your work. If possible find a small study group to study with but make sure that you do own studying as well. Have realistic expectations, it's a lot of work and you might not always do as well as you'd like. When you have those bad days figure out a way to learn from them and put them behind you. Be prepared for criticism, you'll get plenty of it from you instructors and the nurses on your floor when you do your clinical rotation. Don't be afraid to ask for help or extra instruction if you need it.
Congratulations on starting nursing school!

I am 16 and a student in High School and had a seasonal job for the summer/winter/fall. The season has ended and this is where I stand for taxes:
Medicare total: $31.06
Soc Sec: $132.83
Fed- $3.05

All together = $166.94

How much will I get back when I file for tax returns?
You'll get the federal tax back. $3.05. You didn't earn enough to need to pay any taxes this year.

Medicare and Social Security are never refunded.
You won't get back any of the Medicare and Social Security. That goes into the fund for you to draw on when you reach retirement age.

So, the answer to your question is, you'll get back a grand total of $3.05 when you do your taxes!
At best you'd get back the $3 of Federal income tax that was withheld. With a gross income of $2,142 you would not owe any tax unless you had more than $300 in unearned income on top of that.
It depends on how much you made for the whole year.
You wont get any of the Soc Sec, until you retire.
Dont think you get any of medicare back.
Fed tax withheld return will depend on the income bracket.
When you do your taxes, make sure that you do them yourself or have somebody you know do them for you- and it should be free, because you will only get $3.05 back.

Good job this summer!
depends on if your parents are claiming you on their taxes or not. You have to work a certain amount to even file your taxes.
You will get your state and federal back. Rounded down to the nearest dollar. I think they just keep anything under $5 as well.
the fed - maybe - all else nope
$3.05

Not enough to be worth the effort.
You would only get the $3.05 back. The other taxes are paid into their respective systems. You will see those dollars in about 50 - 60 years.
I don't think you'll be getting much back.
