So I hadn't gone over my credit card charges in a while and I was glancing over them and noticed a $12 charge which I would have overlooked if I hadn't happened to notice the same charge on the same day of the month on the month befor, and then the month before that and the one before that. So I called the phone number listed next to the charge and after getting NO answers and being on hold FOREVER someone finally explained to me that after making a purchase on buy.com I supposedly signed up for a coupon program by clicking on some coupon offer that authorized buy.com to share my credit card information. After threatening to file a dispute with my credit card company they did refund all charges of almost $50 back to my card.
Moral of the story; pay attention to unfamiliar charges, even small one, they could add up!
**The charge was called Reservation Rewards watch out for these guys, they're bad news!

Thats crazy cuz my bank just made a $130 transfer error in my account that I caught and had it fixed today. It pays to pay attention.
I noticed you have a Kevin Devine song on your playlist. I love him. We heard him live in Denver in March. He even signed my cd. Where did you hear about him?
From you silly. you sent me a video on facebook... or myspace, or something like that.
I had something similar happen to me too. It's so sketchy
Hey CVS has a GPS on sale for $79.00
Once I hooked up with this company that is like lawyer insurance, and forgot to cancel it, and for a year they charged me like 10 bucks a month!!! That was my own stupid fault though...
