Easy Come, Easy Go

Last week we received our rebate check from our American Express Costco card.  It was a healthy $265, thanks to bonuses for gas and restaurants.  We were quite excited.

That money is already spent, though.  Thanks to some damage that occurred to our Hyundai on the way home from North Carolina, we’ll be using that money towards our $500 collision deductible.  This isn’t the first time I’ve had to pay for someone else’s carelessness or recklessness, but I am gratified by my belief that you get back what you put out.  Karma can be a real bitch.

There goes my new kitchen faucet!
