Well I desided I not longer wanted the goal saving with my local bank. I had opened it up as a slush fund but after realizing how little interest it makes (.1%) I desided to go with an online saving. Yesterday I empty it out and called today to close it.
Well I called today and IF I close within 6 months I am charged $25 for an early termination fee. So today I transfered $10 back into the account so it doesn't have a zero balance. I reset up the required monthly transfer but reduced it to $30 which is $5 more than the minium required.
I guess I will just have to go into the account after the transfer happens and transfer it back to checking. I will do this for the next 4 months to save myself the $25.
This is a big pain in the butt. But the bank is not going to cheat me out of $25. I will just play their game.
This weekend I am planning on going on a small vacation. Hotel and Gas for the 2 nights should cost around $120. The Spa pampering is going to run me $200 and food I am guessing $50. We are also planning on stopping at the outlet mall and so I am thinking $500 for shopping.
At the outlet mall I am hoping to pickup a Machine Washable bedding set for my king size bed. I am also wishing to buy some clothes for myself and back to school clothes for my son. I would like to get some art work for my walls and maybe a right hand ring. Hopefully I am successful.
Look at my sidebar....I will get that TREAT MYSELF TO SOME PAMPERING goal completed!!! Sweet!
