Why do I have to have a card for every store?

Ok I am so fed up with having a KAZILLION cards just to get a discount in a store. It drives me nuts. Every time you are at the register the person says "Do you have a card?". YES can you give me about 10 minutes to go through all of my KAZILLION cards to find yours?

RIDICULOUS!

I feel like I am put in a rock and a hard place. I want the discounts (I love a good deal) but I always need a card.

Usually the cards are free (except for Chapters - why do we have to pay for a discount card Chapters?)... I digress... but who is going to pay for my chiropractor bill cause I have to carry them around?!?!

I remember when we use to have cheques and cash. NO debit cards, NO credit cards and NO discount cards. I remember the good ol' days when a SALE.. was just that A SALE! No cards needed. It was simpler then.

My friend was even more horrified of the disarray of my cards, I had a rubber band around them - half a foot high! No wallet could contain these babies.

She surprised me today with a great gift; she found a great card holder at the Dollar Store and handmade a great cover for it. It holds all my cards, my business cards, cash and room for more!

What shocked me more was cleaning out my purse. I am surprised I did not find an old moldy hamburger in there! The good news is there were lots of surprises like: 2 FREE nights out at the movie with a hot date, 2 unused gift certificates, a Free Timmy's coffee, $10 worth of change (for more coffee) and at least 1 plastic bag full of junk!

You should check out MomoMushy (who made this for me); I am pretty sure she can make anything! She will also be at our Diva Delight Expo on June 7. Thanks to her, I feel organized and probably want to shop more so I can whip out The Stores Discount Card in record time! (I will send you the bill Momo!)

If the day ever comes where you need a discount card for a dollar store; I may stage a protest. I mean REALLY.. Where do we draw the line?

Knowing me though, I will probably cave, it is the discount shopper in me, I need the deal!

Sigh.
