When the going gets tough, the tough 1. Go shopping!
I had a button once that said that very thing ... Wonder whatever happened to it?
For those of you that have them ,which is your card of choice Discover. There are still a handful of places that don't take it (for instance, Discover doesn't discount its fees for nonprofits like Visa and Mastercard do), so then I have my trusty Visa.
Have any of our QOTD family had any weird,strange or "que the "Twilight Zone" theme song" Friday the 13th experiences ? I got fired from my first job on Friday, August 13, 1982. Asshats.
I consider myself an "autodidact" when it comes to: 1. Looking this word up in the dictionary! LOL

Inquiring Minds Question: Let's talk about Credit Cards Okay. For those of you that have them, which is your card of choice Visa? Mastercard? Discover? American Express? I almost always use my VISA debit card. Sometimes I use Discover, though, for the cash-back reward. I have regular VISA and Mastercards, and a few department store cards as well, but I rarely used them and I pay off the balance as soon as I get the bill. I've never had an AmEx card.
Bonus Question: Yikes I just realized it is Friday the 13th I like Friday the 13th! I just think of it as a lucky day. (Just call me Pollyana.) Have any of our QOTD family had any weird,strange or "que the "Twilight Zone" theme song" Friday the 13th experiences? Nope. rofl how many of you just said to yourself "What in the world is the "Twilight Zone theme song" ? Do do do do, do do do do . . .
Extra Credit Question: I consider myself an "autodidact" when it comes to: 1. playing guitar 2. cooking 3. learning contract law for my job
Just for Fun: This discussion came up last night. Which do you prefer when handling personal business communications: Phone? or Email? Definitely e-mail. If I hate telephones with a passion. If I can ever get out of making a phone call, I'll take whatever alternative is available! Plus, in business, with e-mails you have written records of the information that was exchanged.
