    Default WaHoo

    Since this does have to do with money I'm posting this here.

    In June I had someone place an order for 3 hand crocheted baby afgans. I had told her $25 per afgan. She paid me $30 per afgan. When I deposited the cheque...... You guessed it. it bounced. I also got charged a fee because her cheque bounced due to NSF. I called her on it yesterday. She appologized, paid me the $ in cash plus the fee charged to my account. (Her debit/credit card had been stolen and she had to close the account) I also took on 2 more piano students yesterday, of which the mom paid in cash yesterday. We have just sold 2 cars, and to top things off, we didn't need to buy tires for a car. Inspection time and we weren't sure if they needed tires or not. So all in all a very good money week (Of course all this extra $ is going to our debt reduction)
