All Activity

We put everything on our southwest card, then pay it off every month. On the rare occasion our spending outpaces our income for a month we have plenty in savings and still pay it off for the month. We haven't paid for a flight in years, and we fly a couple of times a year, on average.

That’s exactly what we do, all gas and groceries on the card for rewards. Works now that we’re older and more disciplined, when I was younger, not so much, lol.

Not arguing that was just referencing where they went last year. I imagine other teams making/missing playoffs this year change things

A burger joint. Don’t recall the menu. 19 cents a burger. Dad liked them so we liked going there. He would drive all the way to Houston to Prince’s Drive-In just for their steak sandwiches. Rodney Crowell sings about them in Telephone Road.

You seem to be a perfect candidate for a rewards card. My brother travels a lot with his 3/4 ton truck and travel trailer. He uses a rewards CC to get 4% cash back on diesel purchases. He pays it off every month. The 4% is good for up to $8000 per year in purchases. So in diesel alone, if he spends 8K a year, he gets $320 credit to his card per year. It has lower percent's for other categories. That sounded like an advertisement but it's not....lol When my Father started forgetting to pay bills, I stepped in and had all of his bills auto-charged to his Discover credit card. I then set up his Discover to be auto-deducted from his checking account. The only thing I had to do was review the CC statement to make sure all was correct. I believe he received about $500 back a year in credit card rewards.... If you do it that way, the credit card pays you to use it. The only down fall is it is VERY easy to spend more than you make.

No I don’t remember Price’s. What kind of food did they sell?

All good things must end, it seems. Had to stand in line to get in there, but of course you know that. I sometimes post for those who are not in-the-know so they can know what they missed. You remember Price’s on Calder? I think it’s a Munro’s Cleaners now.

I heard they hired last night, anyone got a name?

Hands down Felix’s Mexican Restaurant made the Best Queso!!! Very unique in the way they made it. I haven’t found anyone who makes it like they did.

I stated I haven't used the card in a very long time. My wife has used it periodically just to keep the card active. Very very small purchases that she pays off completely at statement time. You are correct, I may be at risk. But I just don't like having notes. Can't stand interest rates unless it puts money in my pocket.

Interviews have begun, any names leaked besides the Slot-T Mafia member?

We are similar. But, my identity was stolen from a DoD breach. Since I don't take out loans, and I only keep 2 cards (I use them for autopayment of bills where I can dispute & get cash back) it took me until I received collection notices to know I'd been had. I checked my credit reports yearly, and receive immediate notices for every charge on my cards via Capital One & my Credit Union. It didn't matter. The DoD breach affected millions of veterans, and included all the identifiers--and more--than even in this misuse of data. I should have titled the thread differently I guess, because this is a much bigger disclosure than just your SSN. If you don't use credit regularly--or at all--so you think yourself safe, I'd actually say you're probably the most at risk because you wouldn't normally think it's a big deal and shouldn't involve you. I thought the same. A freeze can be lifted in a matter of hours. Not days. I actually tested it when I first set ours up. It was unfrozen in less than an hour online. It's one of the few proactive things you can do to help protect yourself, and it's free. Anyway, each to their own. I posted for information purposes only. The article is from Dow Jones, Inc. and Morningstar. Can't impeach the sources.

We have one credit card (Visa Gold) for extreme emergencies. Two different bank debit cards. I honestly cannot remember the last time I used a credit card. Those things get you in trouble more than they help. I am fortunate enough to have won money at the casinos that I have been able to have a cash account with those guys to use for my gambling roll.

Why do you keep lying out right? He has said on numerous occasions he was giving to charity. The man does not even accept the Presidential salary. You are making yourself look foolish, and I doubt that is what you are going for.....so just stop with the lies or post something that supports your lies.....

They will most definitely be D2 this year.

I'll read it We don't do impulse loans, we have an obligation to do what's right for the customer. I'll say this, if it's the middle of August and the AC guy says you need a new unit and you don't have the cash - getting your loan today versus in a couple days will make you wish you didn't freeze your credit:)

You have done it right. No apologies needed. I'm currently trying to help a young female who managed to get herself 30K in credit card debt..... she has maxed every card out but never missed a payment.....having a very difficult time getting the underwriters to buy in on a consolidation loan. Moral of story - Don't live above your means

Regusa? Or however you spell it I could be wrong lol

They went D1 last year.

You aren’t the first person that I’ve heard this from.

You should read the article. It addresses your second paragraph. As far as the delay on a loan, I’m sure a banker prefers impulse loans to someone having more time to think. Ha!

I will not do a freeze as well. As for loans, I haven't needed one in 18 years. I buy my vehicles outright. Haven't had a car note in 15 years. Only note I have is my beach cabin which we purchased 25 years ago. Got two years left before it's paid off. Own my home in Silsbee, two vehicles, golf cart and trailer. I am very blessed. My apologies to you @thetragichippy and other bankers for not bringing you any business. lol
