Which consumer happenings cheered you this week and which ones made you want to scream or weep?
Here are my best and worst consumer experiences this week:
My best: Visiting Diva Boutique
My niece Suzi Coombs has a new location for her store Diva Boutique in Bellingham, Wash.
I had a great time visiting and picking out a new Joseph Ribkoff jacket and a pair of black pants.
My worst: Outrageous Visa credit card fees
I’m a subscriber to the Problogger’s Forum, which has a monthly charge of $1.95. Since it goes on my credit card and is an overseas charge, Visa charges me $2.50 monthly.
What a rip-off.
I sent the Problogger a tweet about it, and he didn’t bother to reply.
I’m going to spend a month or two using the Forum, then unsubscribe from it.
