I quit a job back in February, and unexpectedly just got a check for $101 in the mail from it & im not sure what to spend it on. Best answer with DETAIL gets the 10 points.Heres my choices:
-Save it for an apartment to get with my boyfriend
-Buy a jersey of my favorite player of my favorite baseball team
-use $75 of it to write a special message to my BF on the scoreboard at the next baseball game we go to.
-Use it to buy suvinours at the baseball game.
-Buy paint to paint over my room, that currently is painted a pepto bismo pink..ewww

SAVE IT! you'll be grateful you did!
and if you're going to get an apartment with your boyfriend anyway, why waste money on paint for your room?
save, save, save, save, don't waste money unnecessarily.
k, the run through:
1. i've made my point on saving money
2 a jersey? that can wait hon. besides, unless you're a complete baseball fanatic, i don't think you need one. and where are you going to where it to besides baseball games?
3. a special message on a scoreboard...why not tell him in person? to me, it would mean so much more to hear it from their actual voice. and $75 is a little pricey lol. think of the stuff you could buy for you and your boyfriend to have a little..."fun" for with $75.
4. Souvenirs...? whenever it's me buying souvenirs, i just end up throwing them away, i don't know about you though. and they totally overcharge at baseball games for that crap. i wouldn't do it.
5. as i said before, you could totally waste your money on paint, and not too long after you'd be getting an apartment w/ your bf. so i'd wait before i knew for sure whether i was moving apartments w/ my bf before painting my room. and all the money and effort down the drain.
good luck on your decision. hope that this was helpful and put things in perspective. :)

1.: DO NOT get an apartment with your boyfriend. This never works out!
2. Baseball jerseys are great, but expensive.
3. The billboard is a nice idea, but it would really give your boyfriend a big ego. Most guys would do this; not saying you shouldn't, but if you break up, you won't enjoy going to the baseball park knowing this happened. Bad memories, etc.
4. Souvenirs are nice, and remind you of the fun time you had at the ball game, BUT.............
5. Painting your room isn't exactly "FUN", but it would help you feel more comfortable at home, and put you in a better mood, especially if you hate the current color. By the way, make your boyfriend paint the room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go with number # 5.

. 1. Do not move in with a male that you are not married to - Your status will be Convient, easy SEX, Unexpected children that YOU are left with and NO support! He gets his meals prepared free, you clean and wash and in the end, He leaves you for a new piece of A**.

I say paint your room a new color! You'll feel like you have a whole new room and you can spend what you have left over on some accessories. Either a new comforter set or some wall decorations! Have fun with it.

Put it in the bank. Think. If the bank gives you 5% of your money as interest a month, in an year you will have $178.54. That means that you would gain $78.54 in the first year and that amount will get higher and higher. If you put in more money you will get more out.
