    Somebody told me online retailers accept credit cards, but I can't figure out where to put it in my computer.

    It's a 2002 Gateway running Windows ME, anybody have experience or tips?

    Spinoff of the online buying. A lot of retailers will email you a discount code if you fill out everything and then just leave your cart page open for a few hours or a day.

    Re: Grown Up Type Stuff

    been wanting to start a thread for coupon code sharing. Working customer service at a major retail outlet it's more or less my job to know what coupons are available when and how they're applied and if they can be combined with other offers and blah blah blah. Bunch of headaches on my end but if I already know it, I'm guessing others on Ants want some free discounts and yet others may know of discounts for their place of employment.

    plus, we all must get bombarded with email promos and whatnot and might as well compile them all in one place.

    Saw this band before they were having threads named after them. Were good then, but have really lost their sound since. Their whoa-claps sound like they are practically auto-tuned now

    Is it a bad thing if say, 3 tooth brushes, a tube of tooth paste, and a few hair binders get flushed down the toilet?

    If no small appliances work in my kitchen, I should probably call an electrician, right?

    Look for a GFI switch to reset.

    No, on an actual outlet. There should be one in the kitchen, or a nearby bathroom, that has a red button on it.

    Yes, though I've never used it nor do I think it's receiving electricity.

    People really don't know what a GFI is?? There's a GFI outlet next to any sink in bathrooms/kitchens/utility rooms. Anyplace water is.

    Might not be red, mine in my house are the same color as the rest of the wall plate, but you can definitely clearly see that there is a button there on the wall outlet.

    I know what one is and where they're located, but TIL what they are actually called.

    Keurigs are notorious for leaking voltage. Unplug it, reset your GFI, your appliances will work again, then take the Keurig to BBB and tell them it's leaking voltage and they'll just give you a new one.

    I know what a GFI is, as in the little reset button in the middle of the outlet? I've tried those but no small appliances work in any outlet in the apt, not just the kitchen/bathroom.
