Hi everyone! On Temu and Shein, just wanted to also alert people that beyond being low quality and not very environmentally friendly etc etc - they might also be toxic for you 😱 "Seoul authorities have said they have inspected 93 products and found that almost half of them contained toxic substances. These items include children's watches and coloring pencils." We all love a steal but as a general rule for anything (including dollar menus) - if it's THAT cheap, it's probably not good for you! Just wanted to share because I've also bought a few things from them but then got suspicious because they were too cheap and sure enough...

If you have an HSA account, is it better to use it or pay out of pocket, assuming you have sufficient funds and not dipping into your credit or savings?

Has anyone had success getting blue cross blue shield to cover the pill prescribed from an out of network doctor? They already give me a hard time because I have to have name brand. My doc fills out a waiver for that but I still pay a copay of 50$.
