I could have paid it online and it would have been the same, am I ever stupid

It already had when I saved up the money for my iPad, and then a knock came to the door and I got a summons to appear in court unless I paid almost $200 in fines. Bu the way the iPad was over $800 and in no way was I going to give up buying the iPad. I intended to use the iPad as a substitute for my computer since I could carry it in my purse, I could have music on it, books on it etc. nut what that stupid summons did was make people think it was hunk.

I know when I had to get information for my passport back in 2007, and had to get the records of how I came under Canada- was three years old at the time, but of course the people at the Government office naturally assumed that I had a brilliant memory and was sort of like that lady on Unforgettable. Thing is they did say there was an extra if we put it on the credit card. It was no problem for my husband then, but since I am a widow, it would have been problem, so I think the one who told me thought that credit card charges applied to every government service. Of course, this was a provincial matter, and so perhaps the province would not put extra credit card fees (I am sure he was not referring to the fees that are charged to stores to get them to use credit cards and besides that information would not work here in Manitoba. You see, we are bargain shoppers and hardly pay full price for anything.) I did get the fine paid off. My friend drove me. The other friend suggested I take the bus, but it would have taken one hour to go there and back, whereas it only took about 20 min. round trip. And then I would have had to walk to the Mall to get change for a five dollar bill, so I would not be able to get on the bus at the end of our block since it is about half a mile to the Mall. So add those minutes on the time to get down there.

That summons started a whole lot of bad things happen. I was made to feel that my buying the iPad was the reason I got the iPad, I started to feel like what I did bak in August and September when I bought those dvds that I should not buy things I enjoy. And now because of those new plastic dollar bills, my bank still have my rent deposit on hold. Yes, that summons guy really messed things up for good.

I know what you mean and it was not just one week, I went the next week and intended ot get the same thing, but forgot again, and guess what I even wrote on the list. Then I decided to say it out loud while we drove to the store, "don't forget to pick up the ---0" I guess my friend thought I was crazy, but this time I did not forget.

This account was very complicated. In order to pay it by credit card, they gave you a complicated url. But I was first told that I had to pay an extra fee so I did not bother. Of course later, when I had to pay it, my friend suggested that I take the bus down town, but that would mean my going to a store to either get tickets or change a twenty or a five. And at the time, I did not have any bills so I would have to go to a bank and get them. Then on the day that I was to go, I get the rent for the garage. Luckily I got a ride, but I think if I had taken the bus it would have cost the same as paying by credit card plus fee. Well I found out that there was no fee, but after I wrote the check so had I went to that complicated url first, I would have avoided all that running around. Yes I usually pay online or by credit card.
