The $50 Mercury Milan gift card came today, as well as some free shampoo samples from Dove and my free Giant magazine.
However, the property tax bill also came, and it's now $76 more a quarter. There was a note with the bill saying that the new mayor is trying to balance the township budget, which currently is in the red by $4 million.
There is enough in our Property Tax ING account, and it only comes to $25 a month. But still, it makes me nervous.
I just readjusted the amount going into that ING account every week, and thought I'd allowed a generous amount. Now it looks like it will just barely cover the taxes and insurance over the next year.
I wonder how much better fixed I need to be before stuff like this stops throwing me for a loop.
