Why is this happening to me?

Yeah I had the same problem with my bank today after cancelling all of our cards to get new card numbers... thankfully mine issue temporary cards and my sister in law works there because they were giving me a really hard time because I don't have the police report yet.

I can't believe we pay bank fees for them to hassle us when we have a problem!

As for your friend

I know! It's like why do we have bank accounts if it's not SAFE?
I read what happened to you last night.. I can't believe that! I have had someone break into my house a long time ago.. It freaked me out enough that I moved! They stole all my jewelry, a playstation, games, tools and shampoo I guess they were dirty thieves?

Hey can you put that hat on Loki for me, or was that Pepsi I need a smile No I have been having this problem for about 10 years and it's getting worse and I am so sick and tired of being put in the middle, My yougest says I dont want to share my holidays with her I told her people screw up and make mistakes and I am not asking you to embrace her just be civil...But I don't feel like having all the tension I'm so tired of it . I told her you need to getoverit and grow UP, and come Christmas I may have the same thing again, and you know what I don't care...I know that if you don't sell that kayak just start this way close to the waters edge and you'll be here by Christmas And Loki can be at the hull leading the way I can just see him now hat waving in the breeze I'm not trying to discount what happened to you at all, but A little is good for the soul

Alycia, I feel for you.........I left my whole purse behind in a Walmart buggy in the parking lot.......I was lucky enough to have someone turn it into Walmart with everything in tact..........I hope someone turns yours in!!

I am hoping so too. The grocery store said they were going to wait until tonight and look at the survillence tapes. They run 48 hour tapes and tonight is rollover. They said they'd call me because they seemed very suspicious of the lady who bumped into me.

Now you don't have to go to the Mexican border now just this side And I'll have to put the table out stocked with seed, doggie goodie and food and plenty of cat nip for the kits, But if I were you I wouldn't plan on floating that boat right on back...they will all be loaded Won't that mexican hat dance sound good then as he weaves from front to back on the SHIP hat hanging off his tail feathers..

I can actually picture this!

Good grief girl, I'm so sorry to hear about all of this. You've just had a bad run of it lately haven't you? I know how you're feeling. It seems like the worlds against us right now too. Keep your chin up. Everything always has a way of working out eventually. Not to mention...karma is a witch!!

Being in the same kind of business, I highly doubt this would work for her. Most of these places loan you money depending on your normal paychecks. When we finish a job, we get a check. There's no normalcy to it, therefore they won't loan us any money. Besides that point, they charge you a lot of extra money and I wouldn't advise anyone to use them. Its very easy to get caught up in a vicious cycle with those people.

I am glad they are going over the surveillance tapes...maybe someone will recognize the woman who bumped into you. I'm sending lots of good vibes!

Exactly! It sucks being self employeed sometimes!

The bank just called. Someone made a credit purchase for $256.98 around 8:45 last night. The bank says I have protection on my card but they're charging me a $35 fee for it
I just realized also that the gift card for $100 my Aunt sent for the kid's Christmas was in my wallet too...
I just want to crawl in a dark hole and hide now...OMG what am I going to do?

Can you cancel the gift card maybe she has a receipt for it with a number one it,,,,Oh gee I'm so sorry when it rains it pours

As long as it has not been used, they usually give you a receipt with the card number and they may be able to reissue - really depends on the store, but all hope is not lost!

OMG Alycia!!! I am so sorry that this is all happening to you.
Some people need to have the crap smacked out of them for doing this to hard working people.
I am still really leary of using my card WHEN I get the new one.

I'm so sorry this happened to you! ***hugs***

Why the heck are people so rotten around the holidays?
I mean this season is to celebrate happiness and family..the lord and peace for all the people in the world...
instead it turns into money hungry thieves, insane shoppers, and down right rotten behavior. Not to get all religious on you guys but it makes me sick that we celebrate Christs birthday by stealing from each other and wasting our money useless items for spoiled people when we should really be lending a helping hand to those who do not have much.

anyways...
I am soo sorry sweetie to hear about your problem with evil people.
I truly want the best for you and I hope someone above is looking out for you and helps your holiday get back on track.
(ps I think we've all been in a slump like this before...I know I have and dan has also been in your shoes. one year someone broke into his truck and stole all his gifts for his family on x-mas eve...he was miserable and out about $500)
