I went to buy some stuff at a store and I always use my credit card to pay for stuff (don't like to carry around cash) then I pay it off everymonth.. I kinda forgot that I put a lot of other stuff on it this month (struts, and other repair stuff totalling $400) and then I put gas on it too... well, lets just say that when I went to go pay for the stuff at the store, my card was denied. Good thing I had my checkbook on me too. Just have too much stuff I gotta get this month I guess and my card isn't big enough (only 500). Ah well, sh*t happens I guess. anybody else do this before? it really sucks!

yeah it is embarrassing. I once wore the magnetic strip off of my debit card and the machine declined it but it still was embarrasing none the less.

It'* even worse when it'* just your Visa Check Card, and all you want is a 5 dollar lunch at the local convenience store...
