Think they would probably go under if they let that much money slip out of their hands. It certainly is incompetence. Sounds like they need a bit of bad publicity! <br /><br />I never keep much money in the house just in case we are burgled. I just have a separate bank account that I put money into for things like that. I don't put it in weekly just when I do a tour all the money goes into that pot & I pay my Income Tax out of it & other things I need to pay.<br />Winifredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415302188575538163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-39225804348634359152016-01-15T15:13:04.850-05:002016-01-15T15:13:04.850-05:00Very smart thinking!Very smart thinking!William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-3061200517994005832016-01-15T14:47:17.092-05:002016-01-15T14:47:17.092-05:00We do the same thing.

I haven't done the Christmas envelope lately because our Christmas gift list has been cut down significantly, but now the grandchildren are arriving I think I need to start that up again too. Sorry about the huge bill you received but glad you were prepared. <br />Blessings, Betsy Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-77096463290298974102016-01-15T13:09:48.478-05:002016-01-15T13:09:48.478-05:00I have tucked away for Christmas and birthday for ...I have tucked away for Christmas and birthday for years!

I have tried calling their billing place and they could not find anything. All they could go by was name since I have not received anything with an account number. Not even an insurance statement. It is frustrating.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015780995837712115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-61418267700612940992016-01-15T13:07:48.885-05:002016-01-15T13:07:48.885-05:00You are so organized Gill!
