I got a $300 gift certificate from Amazon.com |
from work. What the hell is wrong with cash <question mark> I can't
find anything I really need or want at Amazon other than big ticket
items. Maybe I'll just buy Office 2003.

*****, I think I did something stupid once again. I checked ebay and
there are gift certificates from Amazon listed, so great. But I
already deposited into my amazon account.

I find it almost incomprehensible that anyone could
not spend any amount all at Amazon. In $10 - $50
chunks. Up to several K USD.

Given the chance, $300 dollars wouldn't last me half an hour's shopping.

The opinions given above may be mine. They might also
just be what I feel like saying right now, okay?

The thing that is wrong with cash is that cash costs its face value. A
gift certificate, on the other hand, can be purchased in volume for under
it's face value.

for your sake, i hope Alan doesn't read this.
i could spend $300 at amazon in under one hour and not pay any more than
$15 per item.
can't think of anything to buy at amazon, silliest remark i've read here
all year. i have an account at amazon.com - .co.uk - .de.
it's gonna take awhile for me to forgive you for saying this.
