Ham, Fraud and look up for Returns.

Hi Everyone,
He has risen, He has risen indeed. That is what Easter is about for millions. Today I heard a four year old say that Easter is for Jesus because he rises from the dead. Out of the mouth of babe's.

My Easter Sunday was filled with ham, cheesy potatoes, green bean casserole and corn. Oh yea cupcakes and brownies and cherry pie. We were invited to a very dear friends house. I usually cook on Easter for the kids. They were under the weather and I have not been up to par myself.
We had a very nice visit with our friends.

So I get a c.c. statement today. I have a charge for Net Flix. I don't belong to them, order from them, nor do I want too. This is the second bogus charge in two months on two separate cards. I am vigilant about checking all charges on my accounts. It is a good thing. I immediately disputed the charge with the c.c. company and once I finally located a number I called the N.Fx. people who are looking into this. The last time I had to change my c.c. number. What a pain in the butt. This however is getting old. I guess I will have to go back to just cash and checks. I have my account set up now to be notified for all charges. Boy this ticks me off.
Befor you ask, yes I check my credit report often for these preditors. Lesson for all you kids out there, you should too. You are entitled to one free one a year from all three credit bureaus.

If you read my blog a few back I suggested buying chocolate the day after Easter. I was too late. However I did get some awsome egg coloring kits for next year. Woo Hoo. And I learned a valuable lesson as well. If you buy software from Wally World you can not return it if it has been opened. So how the heck are you suppose to know if it's realy what you want? Luckily it was not pricy so I will chalk it up to "Lesson Learned" and leave it at that. I suggested to the rotund lady at the returns desk that they should tell people that. Her response was, "It should be posted, but I will pass your suggestion on". So I was curious and walked back to the software dept. and looked. Yes there was a sign that said RETURN POLICY hanging from the ceiling. Now I don't know about you but I don't usually look up for signage. In small print is did stat that software is not returnable if it is opened. I wanted a publishing program. Something simple to make flyers, cards and stuff like that. My Vista did not come with that. The one I purchased is okay but not easy to use. However I inted to master it if I go cross eyed doing it. NO OFFENSE GRUMPY UNK.

I must go now and eat something that is not wrapped in foil and is the shape of an egg or bunny.
L8R kiddies,
