    Frugality is the hot new trend

    I am planning to cancel my Cable. The other day cox went down for a half an hour and I realized how peaceful and quiet it can be without Cable TV. I might just go with bunny ears for awhile. I also scaled back driving unecessarily to places I don't need to go. In being frugal as well as...

    Any Restaurant Business Owners in Irvine?

    Just curious if anyone on here owns any businesses in Irvine, particularly a food place. A business partner and myself are thinking/planning a joint restaurant business in Irvine, targeting an area near UCI. I obviously have not done the major research as of yet and wanted to know some...

    IAC Raising Lease Break Fee

    This is where you pay someone X dollar amount to take over your lease (maybe $1500 to $2500). It's better than paying $5000 to IAC. Craigslist will be your best friend.

    Better broadband options for Irvine? Fios maybe?

    <p>Slightly off topic... What do you pay per month for Cox?</p> <p>They just increased my cable $1. It's only a dollar but why don't they tell us this? I just checked my bill and it was a dollar more than usual. I was thinking of calling them.</p>

    What would you buy? Condo in Irvine or house in Lake Forest?

    Columbus Grove - Buyer Beware

    <p>I would make flyers for the neighborhood warning them about the rules and the new rules to come. I know it's not your job to do it, but maybe it would help rally up some support. </p> <p>Or start a small community web forum for people to publically post why their car was towed and what...

    IAC Renters. Check the prices before you renew your Lease.

    <p>jcaraway just said it a bit more bluntly, but remember, you bltserv fed him especially with your comment about the free rug cleaning.</p> <p>All in all, yes you got a good deal, but negotiating had nothing to do with it. If I could save 2500 for the year, heck, I would move also. Like you...

    Renters: Wimbledon Glen/Arnel Properties Robbery

    @CalGal: That show is great. I can't help feel bad when the burglar is just making a mess of their home and grabbing valuables/collectibles that are on display. They're on display for a reason and this guy just throws it into his bag.... that would piss me off even though it wasn really...
