Just Put It on My Card

This week's Trifecta challenge: Write a 33-word piece to produce laughter and festive cheer.

Dashing to the stores
Those deals expire today.
Over ads we go
Drooling all the way.
Registers lit up;
Receipts eagerly signed.
What fun it is to shop until
My Visa gets declined!

    Very clever! My downfall is the one-click order from Amazon. I'm thinking of inviting the UPS guy in for dinner (since most of the deliveries arrive around that time anyway :))

    Very clever. I am forever allergic to credit cards. Can't personally handle them because I then spend way to much...so I paid them off and cut them up. If I don't have the cash now, I do without. ♥

    I think I'm actually hoping mine gets declined just to stop the money from flowing out of my wallet.
