I'm worried about the 4th of July. It hasn't rained here in over 2 weeks. I live outside the city, so fireworks are allowed, but I'm worried some idiot will set the neighborhood on fire.
Reminder to visit the printable sites and print anything you might want tonight, as it may not be here tomorrow with the month rollover.
L2B, eek!, the idea of 113 before heat index makes me want to faint.

Thanks for the trade. I got your Qs today. I appreciate you helping me out. I hunted down a reppable post to rep you.

The wind was so bad that it made the upper floor of our house shake. Scared the heck out of my 10 yr old son.
I feel so sorry for you that have to endure this heat
On another note I wanted to share some freebies with you:
- samples of Eucirin [facebook.com];
- sample U by Kotex and a free clutch [walmart.com] - you have to build a board first but it is quick.
- perfume sample [facebook.com] - New York Yankees;
- Clear [facebook.com] for men sample;
- Mrs Dash [facebook.com] sample;
- free 2-year subscription to Lego Club [lego.com] magazine
- Shout color catcher [target.com] sample (Target.com)

What does everyone think about the Target debit RedCard? I've never used the Paypal debit card, but it sounds similar to that program: a regular debit card with the same functions, except it is exclusively funded by money you transfer from your bank accounts. Do overdrafts & associated fees get drawn from your checking account?
Have there been any account security issues?
Is there an option to use it as a credit card, or more like an ATM card in that sense?
In short, is it worth it despite any drawbacks, inconveniences or other issues? I absolutely don't want the credit card. I don't shop at Target every week and we have a regular T, but the 5% off alone seems worth it.
Also for those of you in GA, stay healthy! I lived in Atlanta for all my life until last summer...which was only the hottest one on record for the barren lands of west Texas. Dry 90F+ temperatures, not to mention 100F+ is so much worse than 90s and 100% humidity. I was so sick all summer. This is the time to pick Gatorade over water!

SS - Can't believe it's baby time. Yay.
Thanks for responding to my msg about my kidlet. I really appreciate it. Hoping to get a bit of time to get back to you soon, just so much to digest, process & say!
The only exception to that is a single electronics purchase so that my Visa gold would provide an extra year of warranty.

Actually, the debit card is like your regular, bank issued debit card with the only difference that you can use it at T only. The transactions (to process) take the same time as if you had used your regular bank issued debit card, or used a check.
Drawbacks - I can't think of any except that you have to have money in your bank account, i.e. if you "charge" it for $20 and you don't have $20 you will get overdraft fee from your bank. It is not like a CC where the transaction would be denied for the lack of money. Just think of it as your regular bank-issued debit card. The same rules apply here.
Hope this helps!
Carrying in this heat must be really uncomfortable.
But most of all I'm so excited
I hope they have a back up generator, can't imagine a hospital without one.
If you have the chance to read this you are in my thoughts.

as for big brother tracking you, target's marketing is so messed up it's beyond random. i almost think they go out of their way to send you stuff you aren't interested in buying instead of *target* marketing their customers. i think that dad finding out his daughter was pregnant thru target mailers was just a coincidence. they talk a good game but the anecdotal evidence from the hard shoppers here kinda disproves a good marketing program. my neighbor has the target cc and spends way more at target than i do and i've gotten more mailers than she has recently.
i use my chase freedom at target faithfully b/c target counts as a grocery store and i can use it for lookup just in case. when i was getting the haiku coupon booklets i would get the crappiest q's. i would MAYBE use 1 out of the whole thing. i never got baby promos even though i've purchased plenty of baby stuff inc diapers for my neighbor. we barely get any cats here and i hardly ever use the ones i get. the corresponding inserts and ip's are always higher value around here, even the ones coughed up at the supermarket. just for instance, yesterday i used 3- 1.00 edy's ip's instead of the crappy 1.00/3 cat q i had from the supermarket. 1.00 off instead of .33 off is a 200% difference. that's why many people just toss them. most of the time they are a waste of time.
