    Re: Marjorie Challenge Notes

    Well, the bear didn't go up last week, so it should go Thursday or Sunday. It's a cute mystery shopping bear with a face mask and bag of goodies, like Santa's sack. I have done 4 mystery shops this week at $9 each, so once I'm paid another $36 to the good. 5 more are scheduled for next week, and I have a $60 shop in Friday before work...

      You can also do a search for the book, find a picture. Then right click and do a Save As... Then save whereever, and then upload the picture later. I've done that with ebay.

              guy who already hit me to deal with 2 companies. Yeh me!

                I suppose I should add the IPOD shuffle I won, a $99 value. It amazes me when I win something I think about purchasing. In the spirit of the challenge I suppose I should also add the IPOD shuffle from the credit card company. I'm not crazy about credit cards but h*** would be raised if one of my kids got an MP3 player and the other didn't. Not acceptable!!! So another $99, and appreciation to Jeffrey for posting the deal. Yesterday I also used the JCPenney $10 certificate mailer to buy the sterling silver necklace I needed to complete a set of jewelry after the necklace I had broke. At half off savings, I spent $2.50 plus tax for having used the coupon...$200.50
                +759.74
                New Total $960.24. If course that would be much lower if the idiot behind me on the Mass Turnpick actually watched where he was going
