Jeff's new toy

Hee hee...okay, that didn't go so well...I was surfing on Jeff's new iTouch...and I thought I could update my blog...no go....

So, after years and years of having that Callaway American Express...what do we have? Yup, an iTouch....oh, I think Jeff got my golf bag through them also...anyhoots...it was a total nightmare...

We needed 500 more points to get $250 worth of American Express gift cards...which I used to buy a refurbed 16GB. We have had really good luck with the refurbs...and when my brother Gary had problems they not only replaced his iPod...they upgraded him...so....hey, why not!

Well...did you know that you can only use two credit cards on the Apple site? (Amex Gift cards are treated like credit cards). I had three cards (2-$100 and 1- $50), plus I had to use my credit card. So, I ended up buying a $200 Apple gift card and then using the $50 for something else later...But, typical of me lately, I made the mistake and bought a $150 gift card...I cancelled the order, but then had to wait a week for the cancellation to re-credit my gift cards...and then purchase the $200 gift cards. Why didn't I stick with the $150? Because I wasn't thinking...

Sigh....that's my life....oh, and I went to Target the day after the boys got out of school (Thursday), they already have their back to school supplies out! Then I remembered that Staples had their supplies out when I was running my last "the boys are in school" errands...sigh...Hallmark Christmas ornaments are coming out July 11-12...I got my flyer...and there is another Disney Precious Moment ornament.
