I live in AL and am out here for school. My husband is stationed in Hawaii, and will be deploying.We have a 2005 Ford Focus ZX5 Hatchback about 27K miles, and owe about 00 left on it. It would cost K to ship to CA, or approx. K to ship to east coast I believe. We are thinking of just selling it right before he lives the island. KBB is aroundK, but it probably won’t sell that good in Hawaii. I need my own car(been using parent’s car for class so far) by this month. If I am able to keep a new Honda civic or fit for 10-15 years, would it be worth all the expense of buying new instead of an old car that I can manage for 3-5 years?I’d be out 1.5 years in AL total, then the car would sit for 6 months or so before he ETS, so we’d might need to ship a vehicle at some point anyway. When he deploys, he plans to pay off the honda fairly quickly, after a few other bills. What do you recommend…new car(-20K)if can keep 10-15 years or old car(00-4000) for 3-5 years?thanks.

I am an enthusiast PC gamer that builds my own gaming rig. In 3 months time i will be moving to Honolulu. Comp USA is now closed so there is no more left for me to buy cheap individual computer components.
1. I prefer to buy in a cheap computer store in honolulu, i will be glad if you can tell me, but what I prefer is the kind that i can buy cheap individual components. Do they have a website?
2. If I have to buy online, what site would you recommend? I like Newegg.com but there is a shipping charge when they deliver to Hawaii, is there a site that have free delivery in hawaii?

Hello,

My fiance and I are looking to go to Hawaii during the month of October for 2 weeks. Were currently committed to a 2 week cruise at 6k.

Are there currently any better deals available? I am looking for a mix of cruise and all inclusive options.

Thanks!

Excluding ebay, how can I make my parents breathe easy when it comes to me wanting to buy stuff from online stores that are very secure? Some things I want online aren’t available in the stores, but may be available in mainland stores (I live in Hawaii and our stock for clothes and things, say PacSun or Hot Topic, are different).

So, what do I do about my parents? Mainly my dad since he holds the credit card.
