Re: [AGA SC] Credit Cards

["David Lass" <davidlass@villasunscape.com>]

Of the most recent credit cards they were:
$52 combo Dallas,TX
$54 memb   New Jersey
$20 memb   NY
$32 combo    Minn
$33 memb   Australia
$54 memb   Canada
$91 memb and books and bi's   Sweden
$20 memb   Canada
$54 memb   Canada
$33 memb  Australia

That takes care of the last 3 months credit cards.
I can't imagine that this is worth $25 a month to us???
