Story

I went to 3 of their ATMs and none of them have deposit envelopes anymore. Finally I notice this new special check slot. But it never opens. Then on all menus, there is no option at all to deposit at all. I'm guessing maybe they want you to use their dumb mobile app or somehow I was missing something. I hate those jerks.

Story - Hey should I get a Galaxy S3 before they ban it or what? Quick.

Looks like those dicks at Verizon make you lose your unlimited data plan to upgrade the phone.

I finally was able to ditch my credit card with them. I would have never had it but it was for Alaska Airlines and Mlady made me get it for her trips to Oregon I hate them so bad. They suck. I'm outraged the Gov bailed them out instead of just letting them fail. You can't even wait for them to fail cuz they'll just keep bailing them out.

and many more I can't remember.

=Update 2: Of course you knew those fuckers would come back with that the bill is correct. They put a new meter in, then doubled the bill.

=Update: I called them up and they're going to do a review. They thought my bill looked weird too.

=Bill jumped by $100 in January per month. What a crock of shit. It has nothing to do with the turtles or aquarium stuff either.

-Link - I don't really want Best Buy to go out of business but I think they do rip you off on movie prices, and the prices of cables like the $50 monster cables and such. I almost never go to Best Buy anymore except on Black Friday. I usually just shop on Amazon.com. I wonder how much I've spent there over the years.

In case you're the last person on the planet like me, check out http://www.yelp.com for finding food or info on businesses. Their app is awesome too which tells you if a store is still open or helps you map or drive to it. You can also check out reviews on the go. Get to using it.

They also have deals sometimes. We've got some good deals.

That was a horrible idea. They only lost 800,000 subscribers? I figured it would have been more.

Going up $800 a year :(

ok here's my new mix:

So

Nov 2, they are already running the Christmas Commercials.

Sears

Link - At this point I'd gladly go back to the Clinton times. He had no wars except random bombings. The gas prices were at $1 or $2. The food and everything was cheaper.

The only difference is I got my house because of the crash, I wouldn't be able to get a house in Irvine otherwise. But at the same time, my house payment is NUTS so I was making way more money just renting anyway.

Times are horrible. You can even see that in Irvine which has never been affected. All these businesses are vacant and malls are full of 1/2 empty shops. They shut down the car wash and that place has been going for 14+ years. Mervins is gone. Blockbuster is gone (yay). There's a row of 10 stores and there's only 1 store still open.

Everyone is losing their jobs, getting laid off. The company my chick used to work at doesn't even exist anymore and they were so powerful in 2006 that they had million dollar parties with ice sculptures and servants in foofy outfits etc.

And who is to blame? The evil financial corporations and the government.

I've hated those guys my whole life. I've never actually had a bank account with them, my friends have always had one and I saw their pain. I got a credit card with an Airline that was actually represented by them. They charge a $75 annual fee but give you a $50 free airline ticket a year. But then the jerks upped the price to $99 for a companion ticket and we didn't even use this last one before it expired. So they charged me again $75 fee for the credit card for a year. I tried to cancel it but waited too long. Their rules were you had 30 days to request a refund but also had a hidden rule you can't make any charges after that fee is charged to request a refund. So I'm stuck with the fee and them another year.

The lesson is, FUCK BANK OF AMERICA. They are such pieces of shit. They've been sucking since the 1990s. They probably sucked even before that. I even tried to cash a check with them one time and they wouldn't do it because I had a credit card with them but didn't have a bank account. If you have a credit card account with them they SHOULD cash the check for you. The check was even issued BY Bank of America. So they wouldn't cash their own check. I had to take it to another bank to cash it.

I've always called them Bunch of Assholes. (BofA). They were failing massively and the US government bailed them out. They should have let them die cause they deserve it. My dream after Blockbuster folding is for someday Bank of America to go under. As long as their buddies in the government keep bailing them out, it will never happen.

Target is nice and clean but it NEVER has anything I'm looking for. I always make a list go there, and they never have ANYTHING. You ask their dumb employees and they send you places where the things aren't there.

Walmart may have shitty customers but it's WAY better. I always find everything I'm looking for.

And while we're at it. I got Albertsons for one thing, soup. They had it on sale and it was gone. I hate sales because everytime they have a sale, the item is all gone.

I have a $5k loan at 8% for a student loan. May payement is like $77 a month. Should I try to get someone else to finance that because of the high interest rate? I am losing like $300 a year to the interest.

And where would I go? Some bank?

My chick is telling me to wait until the market crashes, then buy land. My dad's family made 20+ million off that but I have no idea when they bought the land, could have been 50 years ago.

Thoughts? I know nothing about land. How many people are screwed today cuz they tried to buy land.

Mix:

Craigslist is a great way to sell things but the people are so scummy. My chick was trying to sell a washer/dryer for someone and this Mexican guy loads it up, then offered $150 less than the price. She said it said $650. he's like no it said $500. Then he loads it up on his phone and saw it said $650 but accused her of changing it later. He ended up paying $575 more but overall paid $75 less than the price.

I recommended next time to confirm the price over the phone before they even come over. But they pull that shit all the time. I've seen people pull those scams at least 10 times now. They come to buy something for $20, then get there and say ok here's $10. They think since you have them there, you'll just give in. I think one time we had someone pick something up on the porch and leave the money under the mat and they shorted us like $5-10 cuz we weren't there. My chick is pretty tough though. She usually tells them to get lost if they try to scam on the price. They keep trying though.

People really have no honor or morals.

Update: I never sell anything personally. It's my lady that sells everything. Usually it's furniture or kids stuff.
