Thanks for your comment. To achieve your objective in 2008 all you have to do is, pay yourself first. Item number one in your budget should be to pay yourself $800 each month and put it in some kind of compulsory deposit scheme where you don’t have easy access to it.

You are not the only one who is bad in money management, don’t put off till 2008 what you can start today. Good luck.

Take care and cheers

Oh, I know my receipts are right. It’s just my bad money management that’s a problem.

Thanks for your comment and welcome to FortuneWatch. You are right most people never bother to check their bills or credit card statements. Could save you some money if you take a few moments to check out what you are paying for.

Take care and cheers

Thanks for your comment and welcome to FortuneWatch. The kind of incident you mention is very common and mind you its not accidental all the time. Pays to keep a watch, maybe its only a few Dollars, its still a few Dollars, why get ripped off.

Take care and cheers

There you go, keeping a watch on your bills helped, otherwise you would have never known. I personally know a lot of people who just don’t care, I find that kinda weird.

Take care and cheers

I bought 2 chops and the butcher printed out the sticker to be rung up at the cashier. I looked at the sticker and it read $8.49.

I let the butcher know that the pork loin chops were on sale for $2.49. He verified the sticker and it turns out that he accidentally keyed in the code for shrimp.

It might have only been $6.00 but every dollar helps!

I got to the office and filled out the paper work but when they told me that total I freaked out since the rental would come out around 300 dollars for a week, I canceled the transaction and the clerk voided the agreement.

I thought I was in the clear but then 3 weeks later a transaction appeared which if I had not gone back a double checked my charges I would of never caught.
