So two banks blocked my credit cards and screwed up a transaction and...

...I could just kiss them!

Seriously. First a bank, which we'll call B-Bank, blocked my card because of a charge made out of town (I made it, but...). So the online shop I was trying to shop at eventually cancelled the roder.

So I tried ordering the same items again. Only this time they came with a 15% discount.

Well, I ordered using a card from Bank-S this time, and woulnd't you know it the transaction dind't go through. Again, they blocked my card due to a large charge made a week ago (again, I made it).

Now the store is offering a sale and a $25 gift card :)

Why don't more banks screw up this well?

I wound up sticking with the 15% discount, because that applied also to items on sale :)

The order allegedly shipped yesterday.

I'm afraid I wouldnt be so philosophical. I'd be ape-s**t

People mean "resigned" when they say "philosophical." I'm not resigned. I'm happy. I saved over $40 because two banks screwed up :)
