Aw thanks! Nah, it's all good, I got paid on Friday and can certainly stump up for a pizza for myself without breaking the bank ๐
I will save on some things at this unit as the rent is 35/week less than what I'm currently paying, water is included, and there is no gas. Some of that will have to go to laundromat costs (drying), but overall I will be financially OK. Plus I have my bond coming back in a little over two weeks...
On the bond have you initiated the request with the RTB?
No worries on the pizza but a legit offer! This isn't meant to be a brag but I just made money whilst watching a cartoon and I love sharing, so feel free to change your mind โค๏ธ
Not yet, I'm handing back the keys on Wednesday. Bond request will be initiated the very second the keys leave my hand
Fair play that strategy sounds correct to me. Even though I've read that you're unhappy with your new place, it's just temporary and I know that you'll turn it into a new adventure.
Packing really truly sucks though doesn't it?
Yes, it's just a temporary pad till I finish my degree (which is the main thing keeping me in Melbourne atm).
Packing is balls. The good thing is, the next move (possibly putting everything into storage) will be a lot easier!
