  • Amazon is promoting $15 of account credit if you buy a $50 amazon gift card. So I bought a $50 gift card with my amazon credit card, applied it to my account, and got 5% cash back, plus the $15 credit. lol.

      Is that offer still available? If so where do I find it?

          Fantastic! Thank you for this. I just ordered one on my account and had DD order one on her account so we'll each get the $15 free. Nice.

            Thanks, I sent this to my brothers, I'm sure we'll all appreciate the extra bit of credit, since we all use Amazon somewhat regularly.

                • Updated my new worth over the weekend - I'm up to $322,000. That's up from $298,000 earlier this year. The gains were largely due to stocks and real estate.

                  • A win... and a loss.

                    I just redeemed $164.43 cash back from our Chase card.

                    My wife has a bad habit of dropping our cordless phone handsets. She dropped one earlier and now the buttons are loose. Still works but it isn't right. So I just ordered a couple of replacement handsets on Amazon for $38.77.

                    Easy come, easy go I suppose.

                    • I figure we saved about $300 replacing the door handle on my car! My car is very old (will be 15 years old in August). Anyway, the front passenger side door handle broke off. I was going to take it to the dealer to have it replaced, but I got some push back from the service rep. (Need the last 8 of the VIN and I had to call the parts dept to see if they have the part). I called parts and they quoted $173.00 just for the part (and they would have to order it). The part was only $11.00 on Amazon with next day delivery--so, DH said why don't we watch the Youtube and give it a try...

                      In the meantime, something happened to rear passenger door handle ---no idea what happened there because we came out to the vehicle to work on the front and the back was broken off and missing pieces, too. (No pieces on the ground anywhere). But, we have to replace that one, too, now. From the Youtube, I guess it's pretty common for these plastic door handles to have to be replaced.

                          Awesome! Congratulations! That's got to feel great.

                          What's next on your financial priority list? What do you plan to do with the funds that have been going toward CC debt?

                            • Looks like the government replenished the federal stimulus funds for businesses. Just got a $1000 EIDL grant. This is on top of the PPP Cares act stimulus I got a while back. Keep those business stimulus programs coming uncle sam!

                              • Got two free 200# pigs from a neighbor last weekend. A couple buddies and I processed them up into a whole bunch of; chops, pork loin, roasts, ground pork and breakfast sausage.
                                After expenses, we had under $0.50 per pound in the finished goods.
