[QUOTE=Cantwaittoarrive;913528 I use the extra $50 a month to play an extra round of golf with my wife so its a win win for both of us and life is too short to chase after the lawn guys to get what you paid for.[/QUOTE]

Also during the cold winter months you only need to mow about every 4 or 6 weeks but the lawn services want you to pay as if it was summer. If you try to mow more often you can't see where you are cutting since the grass is dormant and doesn't grow......So why pay a lawn crew to show up and pretend to cut your lawn? When I first retired and moved here I paid for lawn service but since I am able to do it myself I will and if it gets harder for me to do I'll buy a small riding mower. The summer months with the heat makes it harder and I've been looking at small riding mowers.
