So you want to fall back on your credit card when times are tough you want the banks to let you do it for free. When doing this you become very risky and the bank should be allowed to recoup some costs. People need to start making better financial decisions early on so that they don't have to fall back on their credit cards. A little responsibility goes a long way.

I have had Inglorious Bastards and THe Hangover in my queue for well over a month now as well as a few others that state very long wait. I have never had to wait this long for movies before and have been a customer since the beginning. It is getting to the point where I am considering cancelling.

How New Credit Card Laws Affect Students

Most student cards are only $300-$500 anyway, at least at the bank where I worked for 10 years. This is primarily do to lack of credit history, known in the industry as a thin file, and lack of income. Most banks aren't giving 18 year old college student $5K-$10K lines.

It is time the American public wakes up and starts taking a little responsibility for their own actions instead of blaming the banks. Everyone is quick to blame Wall Street, but Main Street is just as much to blame.

Don't forget about parking fees. Booked a hotel room off hotwire for the San Fran area and while the rate was $70 a night, parking was an additional $20, but they don't tell you that when you book. Oh well, I figured I would have to pay for parking anyway.

Best Of Return Policies, Worst Of Return Polices

Commented by ckaught78:

Only certain electronics are subject to the 90-day return policy at Costco; primarily computers and tvs. GPS's for instance can be returned at anytime, unless they changed that in the last month. Last month I returned a Garmin GPS that I purchased 2.5 years ago because it just stopped working. They took it back no questions asked and I purchased a newer, even better GPS for half the cost.

It is for this reason that I keep all boxes and manuals for these types of items.
