Ive done the solo trips, I had a blast!

 

Have a fab time :)

 

 

Our local airport is a whopping $1 an hour...

 

Oh no!

I hope they refund it sooner

Thanks, I hope so too, but it's unlikely.

Hopefully I have some money for the trip still, but it is rather annoying to have to go through this.

So, someone stole my debit card info (I have the plastic with me)  and spent half my savings in like, 10 minutes. 

2000 dollars gone before the bank realized it and  froze my account, and I leave for my trip in less than a week.

The only good part is I have around 2000 left which is aprox. what I wanted to spend, but now I'll have to take it out. 

And I also to also wait up to 45 days for the money to be reimbursed. and wait a week for a new card, Yay me.

Things like this make me feel incredibly angry and frustrated. Unfortunately it happens to people, often.

OMG! That's SO terrible!

Sorry to hear about it :(

Liberal city that doesn't get too hot in the summer.

 

I would say Minneapolis, but some kind of sadist designed their road/highway interchanges in the city.

Oh no, that sucks! Do you think that because it's a debit card they won't reimburse you?

 

 

Morning all!

I am glad that I didn't alter/deconstruct this $10 sale dress that I'm wearing from Modcloth.  It is one of the few that actually fits my bust at the moment.  Thank goodness.  Whoever designed this dress must have had Dolly Parton in mind - because even me, queen of the bust several sizes larger than my waist, thought the chest was way too big before.

thank you, :( it feels awful but thankfully the card was blocked by the bank half way through, if not, they would have rendered me penniless. 

My husband got me a credit card with 700 bucks in it and my grandma just gave me 300 bucks for my trip so I could make it, and I'm genuinely crying. It's been such an emotional rollercoaster, for sure.

Morning all!

thankfully cards have insurance, even debit. They didn't tell me ''I couldn't because it's a debit'' when I called, and whoever stole it used it for online shopping overseas, which I'm guessing shows the destination of the purchases. 24 different charges in under 10 minutes. The  card was blocked from the bank after half the money was drained, before I even called (it was so fast) thankfully. The rest of the money remains ''frozen'' as in, I can't use it but it hasn't been processed either. You call and after the report is filed an investigation starts and it takes a little while (up to 45 days in this bank) since they have to see if it was fraud. Pretty similar to immigration, oh, my life.
