A New Low

So, the other day I was sick of being a lazy human and decided I was going to go get the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred video. There isn't a convenient gym, the closest being 20 miles from my house, so, my living room has become my pilates studio. I have heard from other people who have tried this video and all of them have said that ts difficult. Of course, I had to have it THAT day, so I went on my search. It was no where to be found at Target but Wal-Mart had it so I set out on my lunch break to acquire said video.  Let me tell you that it sure feels weird strolling into Wal-Mart while wearing a suit. I received a ton of funny looks but really didn't care since I was on a mission. Of course I couldn't leave that place with just the video, I decided to do some grocery shopping as well.
Finally at the check out counter I used my best points card, my Wells Fargo Credit Card (SHAMELESS PLUG HERE). I try to use it as much as possible when buying things since my friend Robyn convinced me that it is best to earn something free while you are spending money. The cashier proceeded to run my card when this little message came up....SUPERVISOR APPROVAL REQUIRED. I was shocked to see this and since I don't shop at Wal-Mart very often, I wasn't sure what it meant. The supervisor came over to check things out and I was told I needed another form of payment. Confused as to why this was happening to ME, since I work for the bank and know my balances. I proceeded to give the cashier my debit card, as the balding homeless lady was snickering behind me. Thankfully that card went through since I had experienced enough embarrassment for the day. I left Wal-Mart and just blew the whole incident off thinking it must have been there computer systems and it wasn't until I tried to make my next purchase that I realized my credit card had expired. I first cursed the WF credit card company for not sending me a new one on time and then realized that I had seen it come in the mail. It was sitting at home unactivated and I could have forgone all the embarrassment at Wal-Mart if I just would have activated the card in the first place.  Lesson learned and a new low I felt that day.
