gift for mom $100 image
Gigi
I am going to Costa Rica in two weeks and I want to know what is a good amount to bring. I would mostly buy souvenirs and clothes and things like that. I was thinking 100 dollars do how much would that buy me? Should I bring more? Should I bring less? I would buy gifts for my mom, dad, sister, me and a couple friends.
Answer
You will probably need more than that. It will also depend on where you are visiting and where you are shopping at. If you are in a major tourist area, then you will need more. Don't forget about getting yourself stuff also. Not to mention snacks. Right now the exchange is about 490-500 colones to one US dollar. To keep it simple I just calculate 500 to 1. So, if you see something that is 12,500, it is about $25. If you are getting stuff from gift shops in tourist areas, it can be pricey. But, welcome and Pura Vida. Enjoy your trip.

How do I convince my mom to get a german shepherd puppy?
Frustrated
Ok our family has two fox terriers. One is my mom's and the other is my dad's. So I want a large (hint the word large) dog for myself that I could take care of and raise. My dad is up for it but my mom is being a tough nut to crack!
Answer
How old are you? Your mom is being hesitant because she knows darn well that if you don't take care of your dog, she will be the one who has to do it. Is it the size of the dog she objects to? Having 3 dogs? The expense of another dog? I would demonstrate to her that you can and will take care of your dog by taking care of both the other dogs 100%....feed them, groom them and walk them to prove to Mom you can be trusted to have your own dog. Maybe tell Mom after you prove that that the puppy could be your Christmas, Birthday and all other holiday gift for a year or two. That will show her how important it is to you.... Good luck.
