I came into work today to see a very pretty vase with very pretty spring flowers in it from my mother--thanks, Mom, and I'm sorry I kept you awake into the wee hours of the morning 39 years ago. She also sent me a pretty card with a guilt-trip letter due to some issues we've been having, so that mitigates the pretty a bit.
Now, I'm feeling ancient, and desperately need to dye the grey hairs on my head before Easter.
Happy Birthday, Raquel! And congrats on the new arrival!
Oh, and shrift's boss sucks in the worst of ways.
That is all.
I've found with most of the rewards programs, if you work out the value of the points you're accumulating, it comes to be worth about the same as the money you'd get back with the average cashback program, and with the rewards programs you're limited in what you can spend them on.
Kathy, is it your birthday?
I want a card on which I'll put any large amounts and pay off that month. My low APR card does not have to be the same one as the rewards. In fact, the one I'll probably never let go is the one that intermittently offers 0% APR on balance transfers. I never buy anything on it, since the purchase APR is insanely high, but it's a nice place to tuck balances for a couple months.
I like the idea of Value Miles -- tempting, tempting.
We're having odd internet issues here at work. We can't get on IM, can't send emails, can't access any websites...other than this one.
That's fate's way of telling me I'm not supposed to work today, right?
Happy birthday, Raquel!
Discover doesn't actually send you the rewards anymore--they tell you "you've earned this much!" and then you have to actively redeem it. Which I... haven't done for a few years, come to think of it. I should go do that.
Yep, the big 3-9. Almost as bad as the 29th for me, but not quite.
I have a miles card (AAdvantage). 60,000 miles flew me & Bob to Jamaica.
