Wasting money seems to be my specialty this week! First I forgot to use my $20 Kohl’s cash coupon before it expired. Then I had to pay $55 to get my 3 month old Sprint Palm Centro replaced. I’m just waiting for strike three to set me back some more money!

Ouch! What happened to the phone? My wife has the Centro as well, and for awhile her battery wouldn’t hold a charge at all. Then, all the sudden it started holding a charge again. The problem lasted a week or two. It was weird and we were about to go buy a new battery.
Thanks for the mention.

Great links, thanks for including me. That “snowforting” article was a good one! I told Lazy Man he could now consider himself a “financial guru” because he coined a new term.

Thanks for the link back to the carnival. Sorry to hear about your phone. Sounds like you have the protection plan?

@ Patrick and fivecentnickel: Two words… baby slobber!
@FFB: No protection plan, that’s just the charge that Sprint offers for warranty replacement.
