One of the drawbacks of the cashless society is we tend to spend a bit more -- not feeling the greenbacks somehow abstracts the notion of what we're paying and makes it a bit easier to rationalize the larger sums, I think. So we swipe and we spend maybe a few bucks more than we like. Happens to the best of us.

Unless you're Dale's daughter, who went a little nutty at CVS and, if Visa is to be believed, spent enough to cover the national debt...two thousand times over. Final tally is $23 quadrillion, or $23 million-millionbillion, if you like. Oh, and a $20 negative balance fee.

What'd she do? buy the whole franchise 100 times over? And what DID she actually purchase?

Prescription prices are clearly out of hand. And here I thought that spam with the subject, "Stop giving CVS all your money!" was being alarmist....
