Mastercard Moment

I have always enjoyed the commercials with the credit card where they list the cost of everything and then point out that the memories are priceless. That was my day yesterday:

Tickets to a Red Sox game - $150.
Parking near Fenway - $35.
Snacks at the game - $20.
A teenager saying he had a great time - PRICELESS

For my birthday, my husband and son got me tickets to the Red Sox as I have turned into an avid fan. It was a wonderful day. My son took the day off of work (and didn't complain once!) and we traveled to Boston. The weather was great, our seats were awesome, the sox won and the company was enjoyable!

What what your most recent Mastercard moment?

Here's to birthday presents that rock!

  6. I'm glad you had a wonderful time. My most recent MC moment was tonight; paying a fee to have Kyle's ACT score sent to a college. It's a nice feeling, though I'm up to $40 now...

  8. Sounds like you had a great time. I was down and out one time. I was away from home, and didn't have anywhere to go. My sister used her MC to pay for a motel room for me. Never made me pay her back.....priceless! Hugs, Kathleen
