When you saw the bill, did you have another heart attack?

I'm a paid up subscriber to the Ambulance Service, that means all the free trips I need

I use a GCC Tech EliteXL Laser printer A3
64meg ram, hard drive connection and ethernet, + other standard features. I only use it for standard A4 printing, but for $5, also got an Agfa Studio scan IIsi scanner for $5 at the same recycling centre. Some great bargains there. Mind you I have bought some **** from there to which end up at the tip.

I used to deal with a bank that kept screwing up. I would put my pay in the bank on Friday and not write a check until Tuesday meaning the check could not possibly hit the bank until Wednesday. They would bounce them and charge me $25 each time. I had to fight with them more than once.

I quit using checking with that bank but kept an open account so I could cash my checks. I went in one Friday with a paycheck of about $950 and walked out with $1350. Yes it was dishonest and normally I would have returned the cash. This time I got a crooked smile on my face and kept on trucking.

The best part of the whole thing was....It was the branch manager that cashed my check that day. The same jerk I had to fight with over the bounced checks. I never went back in that bank again.

I got my stinking credit card company to remove $1400 in false charges made by someone in the Ukraine and pay me back the finance charges and interest for the 11 months it took the morons,, added up to around $2500, does that count??? Told them my next contact with them would be from my attorney

Won an auction at a community college a few weeks back, got 25 computers with 17, 19, and 21 inch monitors, a flatpanel monitor with computer built in, a 36" monitor and 5 laptops for $400.

Im using the 36" as a TV myself, reselling all the other stuff.

Won another one a few months back where we got 83 computers with monitors and all for about the same price. Not the newest things but they were all pII and PIII's with good amounts of RAM. Very resellable.
