Then I notice a letter from my county police dept... EEK! this was as bad as I thought... apparently we have red light cameras in my county and I went thru one on a turn coming home from the mall earlier this month (didn't even realize I did!) $75 fine Weeping
So bummed because I was so stupid... all the $$ I save and then one stupid mistake wipes out all the savings!! Mad


Next is a rebate from Universal Marketing Services... $6.99... I'm almost positive this is for the Organix Shampoo I bought & sent a rebate for back in FEB. I'm just glad I finally got the $$!!

(
Finally about time the rebates for the Organix come in. I also sent for that rebate in Feb or March and am still waiting on mine.

We have those cameras in my town to, but I have never gotten a ticket as my husband warned me about where they were.

Don't feel bad about it, as I got caught in a speed trap last week. Even the Lawyer I am going to hire said it was a speed trap, and maybe I should take it to court. I don't know what to do yet, as I have a perfect driving record, and this was so unintentional and unexpected. It wasn't even obviously a construction zone on a street that normally has 40 mph limit, and the road construction sign was at least a mile before the work. I didn't see the 12" by 12" sign, and was driving 43 mph about a mile after the sign. Next thing you know I am getting pulled over by the Chips, as I am getting pulling over I notice I am just now passing cones on the other side of the road (actually the cones were almost off the road) and there are some men doing patch work.

I was shocked I didn't even know it was a construction zone, with a speed limit of 25 mph. I am not that stupid to speed with cops present, I saw the cops behind me, but didn't think I was doing anything wrong, and couldn't understand why I was getting pulled over. I will have to pay at least $600 to try to get the offense of driving in a construction zone with workers present to a lesser charge, and there is no guarantee. So I don't know if I should even hire the lawyer or just pay the fine. There goes my Target savings or any savings for months to come. I think the same thing as you, try to save all this money just to have it wiped out by something like this.

Mixed mail day for me.

1st of all... I see an official looking letter from Target EEK!
Then I remembered I called last week about some very stale tasting AF mix I'd just bought that day (I've never called about T food tasting bad before... but this was so bad, I just had to)... inside were 2 $3 apology TQs. Smilie

Then I notice a letter from my county police dept... EEK! this was as bad as I thought... apparently we have red light cameras in my county and I went thru one on a turn coming home from the mall earlier this month (didn't even realize I did!) $75 fine Weeping
So bummed because I was so stupid... all the $$ I save and then one stupid mistake wipes out all the savings!! Mad

Next is a letter from Glade. I did the MIR on the car scented oil holder & refill... overpaid at CVS for it... but needed to burn some ECBs anyway. I didn't pay attn when I got the rebate check awhile back... anyway, the letter says they might have made a mistake calculating rebate checks for this promo... so they sent me a MQ for a free one (up to $4.50)! I love unexpected freebies! Big Grin

Next is a rebate from Universal Marketing Services... $6.99... I'm almost positive this is for the Organix Shampoo I bought & sent a rebate for back in FEB. I'm just glad I finally got the $$!!

I got a postcard MQ from Crest... $2 off Crest Healthy Radiance (37000 club)

Anyway, 3 bricks Qs in the mail pile too... $1/2 Kelloggs (2 of them!) & the $3 Planters. Should come in handy this week at T. Smilie

Overall, a mixed bag for me since all the Qs still don't add up to my stupidity of $75! Frown
ha thats funny i got 55 bricks envelopes today!OMG my mail box was full didn't expect that much! got a ton of $2 off kashi vive if anyone is interested in trading. also got some disney then some others. got a crest whitning stripe postcard in the mail today to it was for $7 off

I know I missed a few days on the deal thread, but I am wondering if the picture on the Tyson TQ is going to cause any problems?

This happened to me once in Tacoma. Instead of paying I went to court and apologized to the judge but told him my neighbor had borrowed my car that evening. He dismissed it.....Got caught by a helicopter cop on I-10 in Florida and couldn't get out of that one shake head

Posted in the regular thread, but, ignored as usual - posting here for some discussion as this revelation has my head spinning Biggrin2

I don't know if I even want to post this, but, MFH & that OP are right - this IS a different one (9856-0112-6340-1982-0846-4821-32) as far as I can see. It has different numbers than the first one (9856-0112-1063-6489-0183-6821-34).

People galore were doing that in our state as well, but the courts got weary of this excuse, so now they make sure the cameras can zero in on your face. This was just on the news a few months ago. Also they are talking about possibly making it your ticket no matter what (whoever the car is licensed to), even if you loan out your car and are not the driver. I would think if you are not really driving and you could get the real driver to come forward and take the blame you could get out of it. So loan your car out carefully I guess.
