Do you buy things on credit ?

K.Rajib G. @krajibg (11923) • Guwahati, India 20 Jul 09

Just like that, without any specific purpose you sauntered down the nearby shopping complex and most of them are your known faces, I mean the shop keepers. You did not have much money in your wallet but something badly caught...

Txgal01 I used to buy things on credit about 6 years ago. However, that got me into trouble because it was easy to just pull out the credit card and pay for it. I would always tell myself that I would pay it in full when I got the bill but that never happened. It wsa...

clorissa123 @clorissa123 (4926) • United States 2 Jul 09

I had joined SAM's club for over 2 years, but I didn't make much shopping in there. I only shop there occasionally, to purchase large quantities of breakfast or bubble gums, and snacks. It charged me about $40 per year. Sometimes,...

Txgal01 I have a Sam's Club card but I didn't pay for it. My father in law has a business plan and he has his 3 children and spouses under the account. Excellent for me because it's at no cost. I do use it to at the gas pump because gas is a few cents cheaper for...

Txgal01 If my hubby decided to wait in the parking lot for me I would not feel comfortable. I would try to hurry my shopping so we could leave soon. My hubby is quite patient when I shop but I still could not shop with ease knowing he is in the car waiting. I know I...

Mylot's minimum balance for payout should become $5? Agree or Disagree.

biman_s @biman_s (1060) • India 18 Jul 09

I have personally asked many mylot users about this and each of them had a different opinion. I think that if mylot decreases the minimum balance required for payout then many new mylot users might not contribute as much as they...

Txgal01 I agree that the minimum should be $5. I have not received a payout yet because I am new. It makes me wonder how long it will take me to reach $10.

Txgal01 Facebook has become an obession for me. I check it both on my phone and on the computer. My soon to be sister-n-law told me that I spend too much time on Facebook. I guess that's okay for now because I'm off the entire summer. However, come late August I won't...

Do you watch TV while eating?

daliaj @daliaj (5674) • India 14 Jul 09

I do that all the time now. But, when I was staying with my parents, my mom never allowed me to watch TV while eating. The fact is we watch TV and end up eating a lot. Usualy in many homes, parents won't allow kids to do both at...

Txgal01 Oh yes, I totally eat in front of the television at home. My husband on the other hand is pretty good about eating at the table. My parents did not let us eat at the table. My stepson does have to eat at the table when he comes over to visit. Perfect example...

Txgal01 @Txgal01 (37) • United States 13 Jul 09

Hello everyone! I love to bargain shop, but try not to buy anything I don't need simply because it's on sale or clearance. Last week my husband and I went to JcPenney and bought lots of clothes for little money. I found a blue...

When you go out to eat..........

Citychic @Citychic (4067) • United States 12 Jul 09

Hey mylotters, here is a good question which I"m curious about, when you go out to eat, do you eat all of the food that is on your plate. Or do you try to be modest and leave a little bit on the side? If you eat all of the food on...

Txgal01 My husband and I go out to eat quite a bit. I usually don't eat everything on my plate. I ask for a doggie bag and my husband saves it for his lunch the next day. Usually the servings are very big at restaurants.

Txgal01 Thanks for sharing your vacation experience. I forget that the southern hemisphere has opposite seasons as the northern hemisphere. Sounds like fun sailing and visiting another culture.
