From The Age Odd Spot

Friday July 17, 2009

An American man swiped his debit card to buy cigarettes and was charged $23,148,855,308,184,500 - more than 23 quadrillion.

To make matters worse for Josh Muszynski of New Hampshire, Bank of America then tried to charge him a $15 overdraft fee.

Gee, and here I thought New Hampshire - the land of minimal taxation - had cheap cigarettes! Glad I bought mine in Maine (not Vacationland, as they like to say - more like Taxationland).

Would have been worse if that happened in Thailand! (There's gotta be a way to keep this thread open just a little while!) :)

Wow I thought cigarettes were expensive when I quit. I paid $10.03 for my last carton in 1986 in California. I thought that price was outrageous ..........
