HOW?!?

First of all, let me tell you about my day so far. Got up, had a bagle (mmm.) , knit a bit, then checked the weather. Ummm, 4-9" in the next 24 hours. I better go out and get any supplies we may need in the next couple a days. Toilet paper, soup, beer, you know the essentials...

So, off I head to the bank to cash a few checks. I made some last minute Christmas gifts so I had some extra money coming in on top of that the check I got from my folks. I was set to go. Get to the drive through, friendly chat, leave and head off to Target.

I had to get just a few things at Target. Looked around the store, picked up another essential item, a wii nunchuck so the hubby and I can box it out later. Ran into Carrie and a pack of kiddos. See in my world all Targets lead to an alternate universe where you can find anyone or anything you are looking for.... It's a theory... or, I'm crazy....

Anyway, I get to the checkout my items are rung up and I grab the envelope from the bank.....Ooopppsss, I am missing something.... Like $96.00!?! Good thing I had my debit card.

So, I head back to the bank. Wait in line for about 5 minutes (holiday rush and all) get to the next teller and say "Um, I went through your drive through about a half hour ago and I was shorted almost a hundred dollars....." To which I get this look of "what is she trying to scam here".

I had to point out the teller from the drive through, they counted my money about 15 times, checked his records, then counted his drawer and finally I got my money. It only took a half hour of my day but seriously how do you short someone $96.00. It isn't even an (ha ha) even amount! They are lucky they didn't get angry, yelling, swearing Jen. (She's in here somewhere, I just don't let her out very often!)

Now I am really happy I got that extra Nunchuk because I need to get some of this anger out before I take it out on the hubby while we are stuck in the house for the next few days.....

  1. Oh, man. I'm just glad that they were able to fix it for you. That would have sucked.
