It’s getting to be that time of year again at my job – time to get the raffle tickets cut and perforated. We paid $50 for 1200 sheets to be processed, and this year we’re doing 1500, so the cost went up to $65. On the way back to work last Thursday, having dropped [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Big A's Credit Report

By Mrs. Accountability on March 7th, 2009

Thanks everyone for your concern and comments about Big A’s identity theft. I finally got a chance to check Big A’s credit report at AnnualCreditReport.com this morning.

By Mrs. Accountability on March 2nd, 2009
