Hopefully it will go higher than that.Getting comfortable with the process will make it easier the next time you see a foreclosure.Bonus: bring a few bottled waters and do some networking.

I use microwave and small-bag popcorn, Kind bars, a few nice wrapped chocolates and 2 small bottles of water.

Make sure your deep clean crew is bringing their own supplies as part of the job, otherwise you will end up paying for bottles of stuff with only 5% of it being used on your job. 

Ironically if you know that, for most small jobs by the time you are done dealing with a hire, you could have just knocked it out yourself and used the money to buy a nice dinner/bottle of wine.If you don't want to go the CL route, feel free to PM me.

For example, would you pay $100 for a half consumed bottle of water?

Canned goods and bottled water

I am very experienced with food.Bar the beer is very little money especially if bottled beer.

For example I raise the house 3" with a 40 ton bottle jack from the parts store.

Maybe on the 3rd or 4th night they get a bottle of wine and some cheese. 

I wanted to also challenge myself so I also ended up installing a niche on the back wall so the tenants could place their shampoo bottles inside.
