Default Loving this sale, but................

can you just keep my credit card number on file because I've entered it so many times that I've almost memorized it! My husband doesn't get such kick out of that, he's a little afraid.

It is when I started DD in 2007 that I first memorized my credit card number!!! Now, it's like a party trick.

I have my number stashed away deep in a file on my computer (only part of the number, not all of it). I have a budget of $77 for this sale (what was left over after I paid my massage therapist) and I think I'm getting close . . .

DD is responsible for the fact that I have my credit card number memorized, too! I have to admit it's a pretty handy thing to know.

My hubby was amazed when I rattled my CC# off to him when he needed one night this week... and in regards to the sale, I told him I knew I would go over my DD budget this month and not to worry about all the 50 cent or $1 charges!

You know, the medical community says that memorizing things is good for the brain and helps to prevent Altzheimer's disease and as Terry said, you can't put a price on preserving memories. So, we're all good!

How can you resist all these 50c items?! My DH used to ask "what is this Click Creative?!". He soon learned!

I rattled it off one night at dinner with my parents, I thought my mom was going to pass out! It was hilarious! My accounting husband just smiled and said, "that's my baby!"

Oh that's good... that's very very good :-) I'm definitely going to use that soon..

"Why are there all these charge from Click Creative?"

"I'm exercising my brain so I don't get Altzheimer's"

Yup.. bet that will stop the conversation dead in it's track ROTFL

LOL! I have my memorized too. And I'm with everyone else here that says it's good for the brain. And my card gets updated with a new number every second year, so I currently have 2 numbers memorized.

The best part, though, was when they called from my bank, worrying that my account had been hacked or something, because of the $0.50 items. "Is it Click Creative", I asked. "Yes", he answered, a little surprised. "It's all good then", I said. It's just my digital scrapbooking items.

Since I found 1Password I know longer have my cards or passwords memorized. It keeps everything encrypted. It works on mac and windows, safari and firefox. It works on the iPhone too.

1Password

Geez, that sounded like a sales pitch.

I can't believe how much I have purchased lately.

I had my CC number memorized and then we had to change cards. But it didn't take long to memorize the new one! Plus the expiration date and the little number on the back

I'm really thankful that my DD addiction spurred me to memorize my credit card number; it has often come in handy! And, yeah, the magic number on the back, the expiration, all that. :-)

My bank actually called this morning too, saying they had blocked my card due to "suspicious and uncommon purchase patterns"

Quickly resolved that whatever Click Creative writes off is just fine ^^
