Wow - tonight I decided to balance my checkbook and after I was done, I had found $182.00 and some cents! Woo hoo!
Okay, I knew the money was in there [but didn't have a clue as to how much ...]
What I'd been doing for a few months is, when I'd use my MAC card or even when writing checks;
If my total was like $11.19, I'd write that in the 1st column in my check register but would subtract either up to the next dollar [$12.00],
or if I had a pretty good balance, I'd then subtract maybe $15.00 or $20.00 instead of the $11.19.
Well, I went back today and went over everything 'cuz I'm ready for a new check register thingie and wanted it balanced before I did.
Was I ever surprised that it come out to "that" much 'cuz to be honest,
I thought maybe there'd be like $100.00 or so there [if that] but had NO idea there'd be close to $200.00!
Now I'm going to take and transfer some of that into my other checking account [which I got specifically with no MAC card or checks], so I can more easily save it!
What a rush to find that much extra.
Over $182.00 in found $$!
