They sell them in sock departments in stores like Sears. Sigh!

I refuse to buy anything from Sears nowadays. Through an oversight I had a $400 credit on my Sears card. I discovered that they charge customers a fee for carrying a credit balance. By the time I realized it was down to $192!! No more Sears for me! :rollno:

The bank did something similar. They asked me to open a savings account for transferring funds in conjunction with retirement plan transactions. They proceeded to debit a monthly fee. They couldn't understand why I wanted to close the account before they had a chance to take it all.

Saving used to be encouraged.

They also used to have this thing called "interest". What happened to that?!
