after acknowledging this, they dont help the problem because college prep at cob is vatable, so they pay a premium for the d average.

the west indian teachers do not care, the govt hires them with gratuity for 2 contracts and they are not pensionable.

they work for cheap and tolerate 40 children in a classroom.

things are better if you take service online.
two of the banks i patronize are excellent with the online service, and i pay most bills now online.

the credit card rate is high at 18% , but only kicks in after the due date. the cash advance rate is truly ususrious at 21% and kicks in immediately. i would only use that in case of true emergency.

but, since these banks downsized, the customer service is excellent and poeple even greet me by name.

it is not 25% plus 7.5 % to give 32.5%, the rate is compunded.

$100 + 25% duty = 125%

Now vat that total: $125 + 7.5% = 134.38

so in fact 34.5% instead of 32.5%.

i visited solomon's supercenter this afternoon

the beef liver in the frozen isle was not priced so i did not put it in my cart.

then i looked for hal anf half in the dairy isle. there were three brands, only the highest priced of them had a bin tag. i complained to one employee who said the scanner was available, fair enough, he told me he had to reboot the scanner. and i stood there for 8 minutes waiting for the reboot that never happened. This scanner was next to the employee door with no clear marking of what it was and there was no instruction on how to 'reboot' the thing that had several inmarked push buttons.

i dragged all the items to the cashier and told the cashier i needed all those scanned for the price before i decided to buy them. i hope the manager who had to come and delete the items i elected not to buy was sufficiently incovenienced. From now on i will put all unmarked items in my cart and waste their time again.

why dont these people visit solomon's supercenter, where the prices are mostly higher than super value?

there were many such consumers created under the promise of mortgage relief.

when they heard of the possibility of mortgage relief they stopped paying.

also, it takes too long for banks to repossess, so people coud live for free for three years in places where they hold no equity.

strangely enoughy, on yesterday's tribune, scotia bank was advertising home equity loans: turn your home into cash.

As the radio ad says--you dont have to have money, you just have to have salary to deduct.
