Have you Join MyPoints?

We have been a part of MyPoints for years; we have received Walmart gift cards to pay for groceries and Home Depot gift cards for home improvement projects. We gave away a $10 Bath & Body Works gift card this weekend at the Pace workshop. Where did it come from? MyPoints!

We get 3-5 emails a day and each email we open is worth 5 points. You could earn up to 25 points a day, which means it would only take you two months to earn a free gift card.

Here is how we have gained points to get these gift cards:

  • Open daily emails get 5 points
  • Complete easy surveys and get 10 points if you don’t qualify, 50-100 if you do
  • Tell Us & Earn, sign on to your account answer 1-2 questions and get 5 points for each question answered.

If you shop through MyPoints you can earn even more points. For example two years ago we ordered Pottery Barn gift cards for furniture. We purchased the gift cards by going to MyPoints first, then ordering the gift cards from Pottery Barn (using the MyPoints site to point to the Pottery Barn website). This gave us 4 points per dollar that we spent on the gift cards. Sweet! We then turned those points in for free gift cards. There is no service charge for redeeming the gift cards, no shipping costs to have them mailed to you, completely free just for opening an email.

Can I use my C F Bank Gift Debit Credit Card to get cash from ATM’s?

C&F Bank Card cannot be used to access cash from ATM’s.

It means you need to send them $800 to get an $800 credit limit, or send them $300 to get a $300 credit limit. WF needs to see the money: it's a security deposit. It can't just sit in your checking account: WF must have its hands on your money. In most cases, you will earn interest on this deposit.

It is NOT a pre-paid credit or debit card. They hold your security deposit, and you make charges to the account. They do NOT use your security deposit to pay off your balance unless you default and become delinquent. Do not become delinquent – it will l ruin your FICO credit score. Pay on time, every time. They want to see 6 to 12 timely monthly payments in a row. You'll need to pay from your checking account or some other source of cash.

Strategy: Buy small items on it and quickly pay it in full each month. Do not charge anything the first month, not until you see your first bill: just pay off the up front fees they charge in the first month. So you'll start off with a small limit ($300 or $800), charge less than $30 on it, pay it in full every month, and increase the security deposit if you can every couple of months, if you have the extra cash to spare while it's temporarily tied up in the security deposit. The higher you can get the limit while it's secured, the better it will look when it's unsecured.

Never charge more than 30% of your credit limit: it will hurt your FICO credit score if you utilize more than 30% of your credit limit. Call Wells Fargo and ask them which of the 3 major Credit Reporting Agencies (CRAs) they report to. You want them to tell you all 3 so that you can build your FICO credit score with all 3 CRAs.

After 6 – 12 months of making a small charge each month and paying it off on time each month, you can ask the bank to convert your card to unsecured and get your deposit back. When it goes unsecured, call them and ask that they permanently waive your annual fee. If the customer rep refuses, ask for the rep's direct supervisor. If the supervisor refuses, ask for the customer retention department.

Myth-busting fact: You do NOT need to carry a balance month-to-month (and thus pay Finance Charges) to improve your FICO score.

You can redeposit the security deposit money back into a money market account and earn interest. This account will become a nest egg for you, a nice emergency fund.

Best wishes.

Monogramed Baby Gifts

Custom Personalized Monogrammed

Custom Wedding Favors

 

Weddings are joyous occasions for the bride, groom, their families and friends. At such an occasion, the giving and receiving of gifts is natural and highly expected. Wedding favors are the bride’s and groom’s way of telling thank you to all the people who made it to the wedding. It is their way of commemorating an event that plays an important role in their life.

 

Choosing the right wedding favors is important for more reasons than one. For one thing, the gift you give tells a whole lot about you and your tastes. More importantly, a wedding is an occasion when you can easily make or break long lasting relationships with various family members. So, if you manage to miff Aunt Betty with the wrong choice of gift or give Uncle John something that he positively abhors, you can rest assured that they will turn up their noses at you for the rest of their life. And, the whole family will get to know about the fiasco! So, choose carefully and choose wisely.

 

These days, more and more couples are opting for custom wedding favors. Modern technologies have made it possible to give away highly personalized wedding favors, without your having to burn a gaping hole through your wallet. You can easily make these small tokens reflect your gracious sentiments during the happy ceremony.

 

You can customize your wedding gift in a couple of ways. It can either be personalized to reflect the occasion or it can be a personal toast to the person you are giving it to. You can easily order monogrammed items from various online stores. By pre-ordering your gifts, you can get the monograms etched at the time of manufacture itself. This will help you cut costs. Of course, many of the items like stainless steel gifts and jewelry are made in such a way as to accommodate engravings on them.

 

A new idea that is slowly catching on is to present food items with unique labels. For example, you may order a big bar of chocolate and have the name of the receiver printed on it. You may even get their photograph printed on the wrapper. The same applies to items like mints in containers, quality teas, gourmet coffee and the like. If you do not feel like engraving a name, you may send out a personalized message on behalf of the bride and groom.

 

Whether you select a jewelry set, a bookmark, porcelain items, kitchen items, curios, flower pots, cards or anything else, there is a way to customize it. All you have to do is tell the manufacturer at the time of your order and they will take care of the rest. Many online shops allow you to personalize your gifts only if you place a minimum order. If this is the case, it is important to place your order quite early so you can avoid last minute glitches and delays.

 

These days, custom wedding favors are the rage. In fact, it is fast becoming an accepted and expected tradition. The choice of your wedding favor and your decision to personalize it and to what extent all depends on how much money you are willing to spend. Ideas range from the simple to elaborate. All you have to do is fix your budget, browse the selection and place your order.

Help me get started with sewing machine / monograms... what do I need?

I have been spending a lot of money recently for personalized monograms being sewn on fabric for gifts, etc. Usually I buy these on eBay. What would I need to purchase to do these myself? Obviously a sewing machine (what brand/kind?) also is it software or how do you put the monograms on the fabric? also the little pictures? I am assuming it is simple to do and you just need to purchase some sort of template?
I was thinking if I purchased a sewing machine I could learn how to do the monograms and then possibly have my own eBay auction online 'store' and sell custom items.
Please let me know everything I would need to purchase and how much this would all cost. Thanks!!

There are a number of ways you can go about this. Personally, I do any monogramming with hand embroidery. Very cheap, a little slow, a lot of fun. (hint: pad the letters with something like chainstitch first -- gives them a lot more dimension.

Moving up in complexity, any straight stitch machine can do free motion embroidery. Draw out your letters, start filling them in. You supply the brain and handpower.

Suggested knock your socks off reading: Singer Instructions for Art Embroidery (reprinted many times) -- the examples were done on a treadle machine in the early 20th century.

Moving up in both complexity and expense:embroidery only machines can be gotten for a few hundred dollars; I don't know what the limitations are of those simple machines. Home sewing machines that are combination embroidery and sewing machines are often in the $1-5K range. You'll have to either buy designs or softwarer to allow you to digitize your own designs. Don't know much about them because I think machine embroidery looks flat.
