article: Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have luxurious coats and come in four different color combinations known as Blenheim (chestnut red and white), Black and Tan, Tricolor (chestnut red, white and black) and Ruby (solid chestnut red). Most breeders value Cavaliers with long, slightly wavy fur. They prefer dogs to have clearly definable colors. They don't like dogs with a lot of "ticking". This means that if a Cavalier has a predominantly black back, they shouldn't have "ticks" or little spots of other colors mixed in. Purebred Cavalier show dogs are normally celebrated for their straight fur. If the dog you're thinking of adopting has a slight wave in its fur, this is completely acceptable. Cavaliers require a modicum of grooming. You should brush them regularly — a couple of times a week. A Cavalier Spaniels rarely have their coats trimmed and they generally only require bathing once every couple of weeks. Cavaliers shed a lot. When you go to pick out a Cavalier for yourself, pay close attention to their coat. If you see a lot of loose hair on the dog or in its area, ask the seller how frequently they brush the dog or clean the area. Most of the time, shedding is the result of the dog's environment or its diet — both of which can be changed by you. Purebred Cavaliers generally have a lot of health issues resulting from generations of inbreeding to keep their line pure. The most obvious signs of a healthy Cavalier will be its coat, its eyes, and its ears. These tend to be the biggest problem areas on Cavaliers and therefore should be the first aspects to consider when purchasing a new Cavalier. Make sure its eyes, nose, and ears are clean and free of discharge. Its coat should be clean and free of parasites such as fleas. A puppy with prominent ribs and a potbelly is likely to have worms. Worms can be treated, but could indicate that his care or that of the mother, was less than ideal. Regardless of what the seller says, have your vet check out your new friend. Make sure they focus on issues specific to Cavaliers (like those mentioned above) and environmental concerns like mites, fleas, ticks, and heart worms. Health-wise, always have puppies checked out prior to purchase. A heart murmur in a puppy is likely to be bad news in the long run, with a high risk of progression into premature heart failure. If you get an adult dog, then it is wise to have a veterinarian check the dog prior to purchase also. The veterinarian can check for common ailments that affect Cavaliers and other issues.

article: Set limits on discretionary spending in particular. Pick a set amount that you cannot go over each month and stick to it.  It’s fine to budget for discretionary spending -- you can’t live a life without any fun. However, setting a budget and sticking to it will help keep that spending in check. For example, if you routinely go to the movies, set a budget of $40 a month for movie tickets. Once you’ve spent that $40, you can’t go to any more movies until the next month. Even your essentials section should be looked at closely. Regular expenditures should usually only take up so much of your income. For example, food purchases should only take up 5 to 15 percent of your budget. If you are spending more than that, you should consider cutting back on that spending. Obviously, the percentage you spend will vary; for example, for groceries it will vary depending on things like the price of groceries, your family size, and any special nutritional needs. The point is simply to make sure you aren’t spending money you don’t need to. For example, do you spend a lot of money on prepared foods that are more expensive, when you could cook more at home? By incorporating expenses for possible contingencies into your budget, unexpected medical, car, or house maintenance costs will have less impact on your overall budget and financial health.  Estimate what you might have to spend on these in a year and divide by 12 for your monthly budget. Your buffer will mean that if you go slightly over your weekly spending limit, it will not affect your hip pocket and will not end up going on the dreaded credit card. If you get to the end of the year and have not needed to use your buffer for these types of expenses, then great! You will have extra money that you can funnel into your savings or retirement investment plans. These are not contingency costs but instead are part of your plan. Do you need to replace any household items this year? Do you need a new pair of boots this year? Do you want to buy a car? Plan for this in advance and you won't need to draw on your long term savings.  Another important point to note is that you should aim to only buy these items after you have saved for them. Ask yourself, do you really need it right now? Once you actually send the money that was budgeted as a contingency or planned expenditure, record the actual expense and delete the provisional expense you had created, otherwise they will end up being doubled. Combine your buffers and goals with your actual expenditures and income. This exercise will not only assist you in making an effective budget and helping you to save, making your life a little less hectic and more relaxed, it will also motivate you to trim your expenses so you can achieve your goals and make the purchases you aspire to without having to go into debt to do it. Try to stick to just spending on the fixed expenses. Cut out the discretionary items wherever possible.

If you are getting a small tattoo such as a single word in a basic font or a small symbol with no shading, you may be subject to a shop minimum. Your artist or the shop manager should be able to tell you the minimum. Getting your tattoo done at a popular shop could increase the price you pay for your piece. If your shop has a world-famous artist working at it, expect to pay more. Likewise, if your shop is locally popular and consistently booked due to its reputation for high-quality tattoos, you can expect your tattoo to be more expensive. Sites like Yelp are great places to check to get an idea of how much a tattoo could cost. Check online reviews for your shop to see how much people have paid in the past for pieces of similar size and with similar styles and levels of detail.
