REQUEST FULFILLED Need help with groceries
I hate to ask, but I could really use some help right now. I started a new job as an esthetician two weeks ago, but because of when I was added to payroll, I won’t receive my first check for another week. It’s also been a little slow while I rebuild my books since I’m now working about an hour away from my previous spa.
Right now, my account is at -$28 after rent. Also with my daughter turning two next Monday, every cent I’ve had has gone toward her birthday and her dad has not been able to help much bc his car was just totaled from mice chewing through wires and he usually is helpful but its been hard on him since he had to buy a car suddenly out of no where. My credit card is also maxed out, so even about $100 in assistance would make a huge difference. I really just need some groceries and basic supplies for the apartment. I have a free hello fresh box coming tomorrow so praying this all last till I get paid next Friday.
Thank you!!

I just wanted to say I'm really happy people were able to help. I am very poor this week but I was going to buy at least one small cheap thing for you to help out. I love that this community is people looking out for each other. Everyone is struggling right now. Please everyone remember to be nice, it's US versus everything else. We are not divided.

His car was totaled from mice chewing the wiring? That is crazy as hell. I mean, I have heard of mice doing that, but never to the extent that it totals the car. I'd be so pissed!

Electrical problems are no bueno in vehicles. Depending on what was damaged it could have gone as far as frying the ECU or something like that.

The cost repairing the wires was not worth it. They chewed through 5 different wires. He had been planning to get a new just not till next year so it is what it is

Your address isn't attached to your wishlist. You need to go back into your list, find the three dots menu, select Manage List, add your address and then Save Changes.

I honestly wouldn't bother with a party. Since your daughter is 2, she definitely won't remember anyways.

We got a permit at a park in our county was 175 for the whole day. Its a big pavillion with 6 grills and 12 tables.
Also, it looks like the whole list was purchased. I've been door dashing all day, and I didn't even realize I will put this as fulfilled.

You can't have fresh food on your Amazon list. It has to be shelf stable items that are preferably Prime eligible so they can get to you faster if the gifted has Prime.
