OUTRAGED. Help Explain This to Me... Any Target Employees Here, Btw?

I like Target, so this isn't a bash to them or anything... Okay, I was just at Target an hour ago. While I was in line, I notice the lady in front of me is totally stealing bottles of wine (hidden in the baby stroller). I tell the cashier that just rung her stuff up, that she has unpaid merchandise in her stroller. She's still there, getting her stuff situated in her purse and stroller. She didn't hear me talking to him, but she was right there- not going anywhere yet. I pointed to the stuff she hid- he definitely saw it. The...

Reward Credit Cards

I've been a long time user of Amazon rewards. I home school, so I tend to use my rewards to buy supplies and things for the kids. It works out great. Recently, however, we got an offer from American Express for $400 in travel credits if we spent a certain amount over a few months. Fortunately, hubby and I both applied for these cards before we found out we'd be doing a last minute trip to Ireland. I just used my $400 free travel credits, and I am soooooo thankful for this extra money to help pay for this unexpected trip (our airline tickets...

Excell Mortgage Broker or Lender Needed for Condo Invest from ARM to Fixed Rate

Can anyone recommend a great mortgage broker or lender who may have some good packages in these rough times of lending. I have a condo investment that I bought 5 years ago and I THOUGHT I signed a 30 year fixed rate mortgage only to find out I had signed a 5 year ARM and the ARM is now up to increase by 1% from 6.625 to 7.25 and then every6 months, increasing 1% at a time, I need to lock into a 30 year fixed rate or default or just sell the condo at the low prices of today. I feel I was misled by the mortgage broker and the settlement...

Circo Train Tracks Vs. Thomas Train Tracks

I am thinking of getting my daughter some sort of wooden train set for Christmas. She LOVES those elaborate Thomas train set-ups they have in some toy stores and book stores we visit. The target brand "Circo" wooden tracks are significantly cheaper than the "Thomas & Friends" sets. Does anyone out there know if the parts are interchangeable? If I get the Target brand wooden tracks, will the Thomas trains and other Thomas accessories fit with it? Most specifically, will a Thomas train fit onto generic wooden tracks?

How Do You Teach Your Child the Value of the Dollar?

Hi Moms - My daughter is six and thinks that we have a never ending supply of money. I am trying to teach her what things cost, not to be wasteful, it's too expensive to be eating out, and that sometimes there isn't money to replace things. I should also say that when it's her money, she is a lot more thoughtful about how she spends it. Today she told us "aren't you glad I'm going to my aunts this weekend so you don't have to spend any money on me or to buy me food?" Ugghhhh. We certainly don't want her to think that or to EVER...

Super Walmart or Super Target??

We have had a Super walmart in my area for awhile. I am not a rock solid fan of the mega store. But it has come in handy when I cant afford to hit up our Fred meyer/Kroger store. The target in our mall is getting renovated into a Super target. I am curious If you have shopped at both which one do you like better?? How is the produce at the Target?? Was the selection a good comparison to that or the Super Walmarts?? I am excited to get to try it out..just wanted to see some thoughts either way.

Living on Credit Cards

Financially we are quite a mess, and at odds as to what to do! So please, any advice would be helpful. Our credit score is excellent, we manage to pay things on time, because we keep borrowing from our credit cards. We are over 115,000 in debt, and that does NOT include the large mortgage. We are an average family, we don't make a lot of $, we bought a home too expensive, and had debt going into it, but now it's way worse. We are not upside down, just have more going out then whats coming in. We'd like to keep good credit, because...
