Not Julie?

This is Jon…the BOSS “Julie” really wants me to start blogging on her page so I’m giving it a chance.

I was recently looking for a new place to get my hair cut and came across something that even I have never thought of, serving beer.

Judes Barbershop beer of choice is the legendary PBR!

That’s right there is a barbershop in our area that serves a complimentary beer with every haircut…

Yes Virginia there is a Santa Clause!


Unfortunelty before I could go in for my first appointment the barbershop was informed by the Attorney General that they are no longer allowed to serve the complimentary beer.

The barbershop is fighting the ruling as the complimentary beer is something that has been a long time tradition in barbershops. There is even a specific clause in their insurance that provides coverage.

So it looks like I am going to have to wait but looking forward to my haircut and beer I am!

    hey jon. . ill give you a beer before AND after you get a haircut. that’s twice as nice as the barbershop.

    ps- its social injustice that they were ordered not to serve beer with haircuts. all the fancy smancy hair places offer wine. . .

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023
