You rummage in your wife's pocketbook every month to change her 'default' credit card.
+1 I just tell her which card to use, but unfortunately she forgets alot of the time... Maybe I should just hide all the other cards.

Or been paying for the platinum card (or any other card for that matter) and never asked for a retention bonus.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.
