Mini version: 6¢ cost me $100.

Short version: My bank account went over by 6¢.  This caused a ripple effect.  The 6¢ difference caused my credit card payment to bounce.  Said payment back charged to my credit card.  The credit card company then charged me the cost of the check, a returned payment fee, a late payment fee (since the check was returned it's now considered late), and an over-the-limit fee since all the charges put me over the limit.

Bright side:  Yes, there is a bright side to all this.  I ordered my copy of the third in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series.  I had it charged to my now in default credit card.  However, Amazon sent me a payment recently that was enough to cover to the cost of the book and shipping.

w00t!  I still get my vampire porn!  *bouncebouncebounce*

Heh, sorry didn't mean to get your hopes up. It is September 1st it's out. But I pre-ordered it so as soon as it's out on shelves I'll have it in my greedy little hands. *gr*

Banks are blood-sucking leeches. Grrr. And yes, I have had a similar experience. Why do you ask? ;)

Vampire porn is a cure-all for whatever ails you. *g*

You sure are in a good mood after all that. I don't know...I'd be pretty pissed if my money got messed up like this. Glad you can bounce back so well.

Oh I was pretty pissed off for the first day. I had a ranty post all made up and everything.

Then I found a way I could have my book still and it made it all go away. *gr*

I know, I know. I knew someone would bring that up too. *gr* Someday when the bank stops looking at me like I'm an escaped convict I might consider it.

I bought the first book in that series! Haven't started it yet though. Sounds like I chose good though. ^_^
