Set the price of oil ?

[jax_]

This has got to be politics.
When you set the price of oil you limit oil's availability. Thus the price of gasoline goes up as the supply goes down. And the price of gas goes up again. Having worked out in the domestic [USA] oil fields this summer I note that every little well in America is now pumping reducing the dependency on foriegn oil. In fact "wildcats" and farmers are out there "wringing out their oil rags" trying to get every drop available to market. Which pays an average price much lower than what we pay for foriegn oil. Within the past two years the price for a barrel of domestic crude has riased and lowered affecting the price of gasoline very little. The current system should be left unhindered as it has actually reduced the pump price for gasoline.

Anyone else agree?

Answer
This is true; however, there are other fringe areas to the problem. In the US we have a major housing crunch at the moment. Contributing to that is the fact that the highest paying jobs are in the metropolitan areas. That is also where the cost of living is much higher so far too many people live 50, 60 even 100 miles from work and must commute from the less expensive 'bedroom communities' to work and back. Where I live there are people who commute by airplane from the Sierra Nevada mountains to San Francisco each day. As the price of oil goes up so does the expense of commuting. People must choose to take lesser paying jobs where they live or give up their homes and move to the more expensive areas. In California we have the highest gas taxes in the nation. We cannot afford another tax on gasoline. I'm glad we are using our own oil and are not so dependent on the middle east.

What's the best way to go about selling furniture?

bedroom set low price image

Red

I'm thinking about selling my furniture before I move. I have tons of stuff: queen bedroom set, trundle bed, desk, dinning room table, kitchen table, couches, coffee tables and end tables.

Answer
Selling furniture is really tricky, because you will have to ask much less than the furniture is worth, and then not even get the asking price.
Sometimes it is better to donate it to a non profit, then you will get a tax write off that might be even more than the cash you would get from selling it.
If you do want to sell it, give yourself plenty of time......it is hard to sell things in a rush.
I would suggest using Craigslist.org

Be sure to take pictures of all the things you are selling, then put them on a photo sharing site, then include a link to it in your craigslist add. Also include a couple of photos in the ad itself.

Next, be prepared to have your time wasted by non serious inquiries, people who stand you up (say they will come to buy the furniture, then don't), people who want to haggle you down to an unrealistically low price, and worst, people who have unrealistic expectations, like for you to ship it to their house.

Be very clear in your expectations: cash only, pick up only.

Also, don't be afraid to throw in a freebie or two.... for example, if someone buys your couch, throw in an end table or a lamp.

Selling furniture is hard, time consuming, and you might not sell all of it.

So keep your expectations realistic, give yourself plenty of time, and don't let yourself get screwed.

what should i charge to clean a home?

Gloria

I have been asked to clean several homes . The problem I run into is that people want to pay hourly . I have a set price per room $ 12.50 - $10 per room (I consider everything a room except stairs or hallways) the more frequency of cleaning and more rooms I clean the lower the price per room. how much should I be charging to clean a house including :
Kitchen
bathroom's
office
bedrooms
living room
entertainment room

Answer
dont do hourly..look at the house and then give a price..sometimes they'll ask for windows to be done and sometimes they want the oven done..negotiate beforehand

your base should be $100 and then more as they add things on..which they always do

** remember..people never consider your travel time and the amount of money you spend on chemicals and cleaning supplies.

Should I purchase from JC Penney or Value City Furniture?

KM

I have been looking around for a micro-fiber sectional and I found what seem like identical ones that I like at both JC Penney and Value City. My mom says that she would be scared to purchase from Value city but, I purchased my bedroom set from there. And it is fine almost a year later. However, I have never purchased anything from JC Penney before. So, I was wondering does anyone have any experiences good or bad from either stores.

Answer
1) What is the price difference between the two? Value City Furniture has a guaranteed lowest price, and both JC Penney and Value City Furniture offer a ONE year Warranty. You have the same warranty with each. If the sectional you're interested in is their exclusive American Signature brand, it carries a limited LIFEtime warranty above and beyond your 1 year warranty. Value City Furniture runs over 130 stores and have been in business for over 60 years. They own their own their own factories, and therefore don't have a retail mark-up as JCPenney would have.
Also, Value City Furniture is backed by the BBB and has an A rating. JC Penney furniture is NOT backed, or affiliated with the BBB.
Happy Shopping!

How can i make my bedroom look better without spending to much?

bedroom set low price image

M - Kay

My bedroom is a bit boring and i would love to hear ideas on how to make it look more interesting without spending to much.

Answer
The easiest way to freshen up your bedroom is to get new bedding. Overstock.com has the most reasonable prices:
http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Comforter-Sets/2/subcat.html?sort=Lowest+Price
But you can also find things at Target, Kmart, Linens N Things,
http://www.bedbathstore.com/bed.html
http://www.designerlinensoutlet.com/store/category.asp?SID=1&category_id=25

The other cheap way to give your room a new look was already mentioned - paint it. It's more work than just changing the bedding, of course, but it can make a big difference. You could paint all of the walls, or you simply add stripes or dots or a stencil.
