I bought a cordless unit in preparation for braces to be installed in Jan '09. I have the Waterpik Ultra Cordless Dental Water Jet. Battery life is pretty good. But then again, I always recharge it every few days and keep the cord on the wall. It always blast out a bits of food brushing doesn't take...

I would wait until you can pay at least half of the cost. If you get a job and could save $500/month, you will have your braces in under a year. Don't ruin your credit history by getting the braces now that you can't afford. You'll have a hard time buying a car, renting an apartment, getting credit ...

I plan on calling the FSA company tomorrow after I go through the paperwork again tonight. Theres a good 60-70 pages just on FSA alone :shock: There is no mention of an FSA credit card. Everything that is written, mentions reimbursement. When you have eligible expenses, you first pay the bills as yo...

I think I can take out the full amount after all...Dependent FSA is one where I would have to wait for the funds to be aquired first. The amount available for reimbursement from your FSA at any time during the calendar year is limited to the total amount you elected to have contributed for that year...

I have a big headache today reading through all of my company's booklet for the FSA, seeing how it works and whats covered. Looks like I'll be reimbursed after I pay but its done electronically and automactially for my dental and FSA company. I still don't get how I will be reimbursed if I pay in fu...

My employer is sneaky. :jokerlaugh: All the enrollment packets, extra mailers, emails, etc list Octoboer 17 as the final date. I log onto the actual company enrollment website where you can make changes and pick plans, due date listed is different. I have until Nov 7 :banana: If I set aside the maxi...

I checked the enrollment packet when I arrived at work today, looks like I'm too late for FSA. Enrollment period ended last week :-+ Min $100, Max $3,000 jennielee81: You will be more envious to know I pay nothing for the insurance. Company pays fully for health, dental, eye and life insurance. I pa...

Any financial guru's? FSA, savings & braces
My company offers FSA, I have never looked into it and it looks like a good thing to do for braces. My dental insurance (Cigna) will cover 50% cost for adults, I'm 30. It looks like the coverage for any other dental needs are pretty good as well. I'm looking at getting braced in Dec or Jan. I have s...
