I was quite excited when I opened my mail box today! Here's the story...
I have a Citi credit card for students and it accumulates "thank you" points. I only use the credit card for small things and pay it off every month. I therefor do not pay the card company any interest and I get the special points. These points add up quickly, especially if the card gets paied off each time, which it does. The points can be used for multiple types of gift cards, electronics, dvds and more.
As my readers know, I have a Sony Reader. One of the gift cards available from the "thank you" points is a Sony Style card. I wanted to buy a gift card that would buy the books for my Reader but they did not have one. So! I bought the Sony Style gift card. A one hundred dollar gift card at that, for nothing! With this gift card I can go to the Sony Style Web site and buy Reader gift cards. To be exact I can buy four $25 gift cards! Oh the books!
Credit cards are a wonderful thing, when used responsibly. Anyone who says they are not is irrisponsible with their money.

Careful, baby girl! Those little plastic demons can be soooo tempting! Don't hesitate to take it out of your purse and leave it at home if it starts singing its siren song to you.
ReplyDeleteAnd no, I'm not responsible with my money.
