[quote name='n8rockerasu']LOL...dude, you crack me up. I was going to comment on your post earlier about having to sneak and "whip out the special card", but I had to run an errand. I understand that it's her credit card, but is she that huge of a bitch that if you explained to her what you were trying to accomplish (getting a $60 game for $5 or less), she wouldn't understand and just be happy that you're crafty enough to do something like this...as opposed to all the suckers who go out and just spend the $60?
Unless you're like 16 and she's 30...you really have two options. Either grow a pair, or get your own credit card. Even if you don't use it. It's not a bad thing to have for an emergency, and as long as you're not a complete douche, it helps build up your credit. Come on. Is she your girlfriend or your mom?[/quote]
Like I said, I don't buy much of anything. I'm not that into games anymore (the only thing I used to buy when I did buy anything) and if I do buy something like a gift, I prefer using cash.
Last big thing I bought was a $50 giftcard for a close friend on his birthday in March, and I used cash. So what? I do have my own credit card, that I do, in fact, use in emergencies. And only in emergencies. This free game is not an emergency, no matter what way you look at it. I prefer to use cash. My preference, way to jump on me for that though.
She has her own credit card to, that she uses in emergencies. And we both share this card with our own cash. I rarely use it, ever, like I said. Maybe 3-4 times a year.
And yeah, she's pretty picky over the cash, so what? Have you ever had a girlfriend? They always have one (or multiple) things that they are picky about like that. Doesn't bother me.
It's not about growing a pair, it's about not wanting to deal with her bitching about it. She will definitely think that I'm going to get charged some big fee for that stamps.com offer, but I'll have to sit down on my own time and explain it to her. That's why I said that. I'm sure you've seen someone bitch about something you didn't feel was worth it, but they do. She didn't come from a nice family so I can see why she is like this.
Thanks for the assumptions though, you know what they say about them, and you did it
