FREE MONEY!

You know the old saying "if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is" Well, last week Phil came home saying there was a sign up at work with the credit union saying they would give you $100 if you got a friend/family member/enemy/anyone to open an account. They would give that person $50 for opening the account. So Phil comes home & says to Nick, you want $50, mommy, you want $50? How about you Lexi, etc...

Nick says YES! I was like, huh? Ya whatever. The banks around here will give the kids $5 to open an account & sometimes they have a special, $10! And this place is gonna give $50.??? Ok.

Well I said, what else goes with it, how much do you need to open the account with? So he checked into it today & said that you need to open an account with $25. He'd get his money right away, but we'd have to wait until December to get our $50. He can refer up to 5 people. Well guess what, there are 5 people in this household that don't have accounts with the credit union yet........so the Fischer's will end up with $750 for doing this! Whoo Hoo!! I said, wow, I bet everyone is doing this. He said, nope, not many at all. What is wrong with people?!!? Hey, Eric, tell your mom to open an account there for you & your dad.....that'd be $200 for her & $50 for each of you!!

Nick will be excited to hear about this.....

Speaking of money......we got our check yesterday for the cabin & according to Phil, I'm spending it right & left! I do have a few things in mind ;-) He thinks the bank should have it. Now tell me, what FUN would THAT be?!?! I'd like a new pair of underwear at least.

First thing is ripping out the front deck & cementing it & cement front steps (phil already started ripping it off today). And the rest is just some room makeovers which really won't cost as much as he thinks! I'm suppose to be making a list for him.........ho hum.

Ack, school kids will be home shortly, where DOES the day go??? Never went this fast during the summer!
