I went to pay a cc today and discovered that I was being charged 9.99% interest on the balance I had transferred in April -- which was supposed to be 0% until next year. AND, I'd been charged it EVERY MONTH since opening the account!! Why I didn't notice it sooner, I'm not sure... Anyway - after a short discussion with a rep (very nice, totally took resp. for the error) she changed it to the way it was supposed to be and is crediting my account the $280 - yes $280 - in finance charges I've paid. That's one big snowflake!!

Just a reminder to check carefully -- I'm sure I'm not the only one!!

Happy Thursday :-) One more week 'til turkey...YUMMMM
