Closed on my house today.

Save your fucking money on lawn equipment. For what you'll spend, you can have your lawn mowed for well over a year. Possibly two if you factor in tune-ups/carb cleaning because of the shit gasoline we get these days. BTDT... I pay to have that shit done now.

I do too after my weed eater busted, then the mower decided to start screwing up on me mid season.

Pretty true. I realized that the thing I hated most about the last house I owned was working on the yard, only to have it still not look as good as I wanted it to after I was done and miserable for a couple hours when I could be doing other important things, like dicking around on the internet. It's an annoying bill to pay, but it has made home ownership so much more enjoyable for me.

I may be in the minority, but I enjoy working on my yard. It looks like shit right now since the previous owner didn't treat it, but I like the time outside.

I like time outside, too. Sitting on my covered porch, in a lounge chair, with a book and drink while my dog stalks squirrels....

Thankfully I can make way more money than my lawn guy in the time it takes four guys to do my lawn. It takes me more than 4 times longer. It's simple math.

I've got a nice commercial grade TORO I bought, ran half a season, had to get the carb cleaned/rebuilt, and now it just sits. It's a trophy of my awesomeness

I'm going to get a reel mower, not a gas one, and an electric trimmer. Total will be 200 bucks plus whatever electricity I use for the trimmer. That's pretty cheap compared to what they charge up here in Frisco. Anyway, I need the workout and the sun. Plus there's Dallisgrass all over the front lawn, and I've gotta kill that.

How much are you guys paying for lawn care? I have to mow mine....paying someone to mow an acre will be too rich for my blood.

[talisman]

I'm paying $35 per service. I'm on just under a quarter acre.

[Baron Von Crowder]

$30 every two weeks

[mstng86]

well since everything is more expensive and you should be tipping twice as much as you used to, you should be paying about $50 for a normal size yard.






im just kidding. Between 25-35 seems the norm.

$60 every two weeks 3/4 acre. Worth every fucking penny.

[mustang1200]
