I thought I would give you all a good laugh at my expense, lucky me...
So the other day, I was having a really busy day, surprise... surprise...I needed to go to costco, so I decide to brave it with all 3 kids, I know, to some of you that not that many, but for me IT IS...so were at costco, and Lily starts to get cranky, cause we've been there for an hour and a half, so I give her my wallet to play with...FIRST MISTAKE.....so I get up to the register and can't find my costco card, there's a huge line of people waiting behind me while they are waiting for me to look for it. I can't find it so they take my drivers liscense, call the manager and look up my number, and mind you they aren't speedy, so you guessed it, the huge line of people are still staring at me.
Once they ring me through, I hand them my bags, cause I'm all green you know, great for the enviroment,and my bill is $450 OUCH, are you serious? This is a weeks worth of groceries. So I go to ring my debit card through, and it doesn't
work....OHGosh.....what ever happend to enless amounts of MONEY.
We try it a couple of times and by this time, I'm not usually very easily embarrased but I can feel my face getting hotter, and hotter. So I tell the guy, I can go get my husband and use another card, since we have like 20 accts with the dang business, I'm sure he would have another one, and he's like 30 feet away. Well, they can't just set my stuff aside, they have to.......Yeah, you guessed it, call the manager again to void my stuff. Talk about slow, I felt like I stood there for 20 mins with 20 people staring at me, "Awww, poor lady, no money, and three kids, she's probably a single mom, maybe her husband left her, or he died, or maybe her kids are illigitimit children, I bet they all have different dads or something.
Anyhooch, so after an eternity of waiting for the manager, and voiding my ticket, they set my stuff aside while I run for cory, and since when is cory ever done by 6:00. NEVER............ but he's not there, and it's only 6:10. So I get to go back and find the manager, to tell her I can't pay for my groceries. The worst part is, It's all in my lovely green bags......out of utter and complete embarrasement, I leave the bags, and tell her I will get them when I come back.
So I go home to see what is up with my account, thinking what the heck could have gone wrong? Well come to find out, my account is at ZERO. My dear sweet husband had forgotten to transfer money from one of our 20 checking and savings accounts, into the little ole account I use EVERYDAY. Who ever said cory was forgetful, is way off track....
WALAHHH.
Hope you had a good laugh, cause I sure didn't, infact, I was PISSED..........
