you will have to check your codes on sharing the plumbing especially if plans condo conversion ever.

obviously, just make sure you start at top and work your way down

Nope no cards for me. as i layed in the hospital bed i did a lot of thinking..,. i used to always try and cut corners and to the extreme. Always thinking i was getting ahead, but EVERY single time something would happen that at the very least set me back to square one. It finally sunk in, nothing worth anything comes fast or easy. Thats just one problem with the cards though, i always had a guilty conscience about them because i knew where they were coming from but i would try and justify ny saying that they would just sell them to someone else..So yeah i stay away from them now- If you are going to use them be careful and it sounds silly but dont become dependent on them, treat them as a bonus dont go looking for them.

Well as Ed said these guys are shady..These cards are USUALLY a result of stolen merchandise returned with no receipt- You must use your drivers license without a receipt and the system tracks returns and if its like 3 returns within say 6 months, you can only get a merch card. well crackheads and others sell them to people for 50% off. i got a card off of a guy a few times and the one time i didnt check it, it was no good. he called me the next day and likely assumed that i hadnt checked yet or needed money so bad he didnt care, it was worth a shot, i didnt say anything to him about the bad card i acted normal so hed meet me. i was stupid and met him at my place, he handed me the card and i reached in my pocket and handed him the bad card and said were even see ya.. he bitched and moaned for awhile then started threatening me - i was already irritated so long story short there was a fight and he stabbed me. Barely missed my lung. he ended up getting picked up for other stuff so yeah they got him. All in all it was my fault for playing with fire. these guys are so screwed up, dont ever trust them they are heroin addicts and crack addicts literally stealing thousands of dollars a day. lowes and home depot know ive actually talked to them about it but they just dont want the liability of being sued. Just be careful..

you can go straight the self check out line usually w the person and they can scan the card the screen displays the amount on the card

Im sorry if that came across wrong- I had been using them for years- I actually got stabbed over one on 6/2/09- By the time i read it it seemed like most had heard of it- It was funny because here you were holding back valuable info and wanted to keep it all to yourself- and you wouldve had "the word' not been let out- actually i dont know why it was funny but it seemed funny to me this morning - sorry if i offended you by unintentionally belittling your info.

Thanks sam that is good advice, Ive only had a couple of short lived jobs so i have no interview experience. Ill play with the wording there and see what i come up with.

BTW-Pawn shops carry them and actually think there is a company that buys the unwanted gift cards and sells them online. That is pretty funny that OP thought he had some big secret..

everyone pays 50% here - Can these receipts be treated as cash? In other words if i bought a hundred dollar card for 50 bucks and i spent it... if i were ever audited how would they look upon the gift card as payment method?

Thought id share progress. I also have a meeting with citys development office this week.
BTW Im very open to any suggestions on this outline
