Several years ago, Munchkin reported that he was going to Amarillo for something related to a movie. Can you elaborate?
Update on the Hollywood Gives promotion.
First place was 21,000 lbs., second place was 18,000 lbs. and 3rd place was 12,000 lbs. I’m glad I didn’t enter.
74,323 lbs. total collected. There were 8 collection days.
Update on my toll road issue. I contacted Avis E tolls several times and didn’t get a reply. So, I filed a disputed charge with my credit card company ( Chase Sapphire Reserve). When I checked my credit card statement, there is a credit for $29.55 ( the amount in question) and the transaction date is 11/7/18. This is about 10 days after the incident. There is also a credit for $38.05, the full amount billed by Avis Rent a Car Tolls. This must be the amount that my credit card company requested from Avis E tolls. All Avis had to do was let me know that they were processing a refund and they could have saved me a lot of time and effort. Instead I had to make 3 calls to Avis and then call my credit card company. I don’t know if both credits will remain but it just shows me more clearly how inefficient and badly managed the Avis E tolls group can be.
