Found

Last night I got a letter from $former_employer, about money in their 'save for shares' program, a way for employees to buy discounted shares with regular paycheck deductions. The buying, however, happens once a year, generally in August. Which means that when I left $former_employer last July, there was money in the account, which never made its way to me. The letter apologized, explaining that they were switching brokerage houses, so this got lost in the shuffle (ok, not that I'd noticed. Still, a year later?). Which means I'm getting a check for $720 sometime soon. I'm not sure if it's really 'found,' since it was money out of my paycheck, but it feels that way. What to do with it.....?

big money expenditures take up brain power. unless you have lots of money to toss around, which most of us don't.

if you decide you want to do this and you want moral support... i adore shopping. seriously. it's a sickness.

Thanks! If I get moving on actual shopping, I'd love to have the company.
