Totally a first world problem, but DH bought a piece of art that we had to get framed, and the frame was really pricey.

@Mrs. Jacks: I was a scheduled C-section and my due date was mid February... my mom wanted to do it on Valentine's Day, but it fell on a Saturday and they didn't schedule C-sections on weekends. They offered Friday but it would have been Friday the 13th, so I was born on Thursday the 12th. Weirdly enough that's the way the days fall again this year..!!
@lamariniere: framing IS really expensive!!
A vet visit for one of the dogs... it wasn't too bad though. She had a biopsy and it's not cancer, so that made us happy.
-
Apparently the people who owned our house before us never had a dryer. After buying a new washer/dryer we had to pay $750 for a plumber to drill through our foundation and install a dryer vent. We had no idea it would cost so much or was even necessary so it was not budgeted for!
-
We just moved so, everything? Our movers cost $400 more than we thought they would, the curtains we got won't work so we need to spend an additional $200 on new ones, in order to get our cable hooked up we had to spend almost $300 to get things set up the way we wanted. It's been never ending this week
-
We own a condo. There are five units in the building. It was new construction, and the last unit sold a little over two years ago. The management company never received the bill from the sewer company, so we just got a huuuuuuge bill with about three or four years of charges plus interest. So I guess we are all going to get an assessment.
-
Unexpected ultrasound cost, $375 bucks that we weren't planning on.
-
@mrs. wagon: yeah delivery date is Friday Feb 13th. Our lucky Valentine. I was hoping valentines day was Friday.
-
My husband's car died a quick death, so he had to buy a new one. It wasn't entirely unexpected....but we also both thought it had more life left in it!
-
This is going to sound obnoxious, but we haven't had any unexpected bills lately
Which is a miracle because it seems like we always do. *knock on wood*
-
@HLK208: I was going to say the same thing. Thank goodness. Our last one was $18k so it's nice having a breather!
-
Not totally unexpected but our electric and gas bill was way higher than usual this past month, probably due to so many days of staying home all day long due to holidays, illness, snow, etc. in our old house with a terrible heating system.
-
This isn't a done deal yet, but a really amazing opportunity sprung up this week to buy a lake house this weekend
-
I'm amending my statement. Today, our garage door broke with our car inside, so I'm sure it will be a couple hundred to fix it.
-
Last month EVERYTHING came out of the woodwork. Car trouble, medical bills, vet bill, medicine for T and for me when we were both sick, and a bunch of other little things. We were zapped.
-
My miscarriage in Oct/ Nov had weird HCG numbers so the my ob/gyn basically ordered me to go to the ER in case it was ectopic. $900 to the ER, $700 to the ER doctor, $100 to the ultrasound specialist= $1700 out of our baby fund. I'm so thankful it was not ectopic and that the doctor was SUPER kind, but, the ER visit was totally unnecessary, in retrospect! So that's frustrating.
-
It's been a hard couple months.
New washer because ours broke-700.
New heating element in our 1983 oven-250
Leak from plumbing/replacement ünder house-2000 -
Blood thinner meds that the doc says are crazy expensive (but they're the only ones safe to take during pregnancy, unfortunately). I'm hoping for a miracle when I go fill my prescription tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
-
Our plow guy hit us up 4 times in last week's blizzard and we're due to get another one tomorrow. At 40 bucks a pop it really adds up. But we didn't really want to spring for a snowblower when we moved in here over the summer.
-
@yoursilverlining: mine died in the middle
of the road yesterday. We were
going to start looking for a new car in the spring but I guess will have to do so sooner now. -
@sera_87: Is it Lovenox? I know that's really expensive, but there's definitely a generic for that one that I took in the past.
-
My filling broke
-
We just got a $700 bill for water/sewer
We recently bought a house and there are lots of expenses that are cropping up that we didn't account for. We've always lived in a condo/townhouse before this and our strata fees covered expenses like that.
-
Our lab had an ear infection, so needed meds and an exam.
-
Our dogs vet bills last week were over a thousand dollars and in the same week our dryer needed $500 in repairs. Ugh.
-
@momazon: no, innohep.
And small miracle: I'm covered under XDH's insurance......because otherwise it would have cost me 1108$ a month. Holy. Crap.
-
New tires for my car.
-
Dental bills. Not unexpected, but they were bigger than I thought they would be.
Which is a miracle because it seems like we always do. *knock on wood*
