Today, I went to my university bookstore and tried to use my debit card to pay, but got the "Insufficient Funds" notification. I was buying a single postage stamp, which costs 57 cents. FML

One time when I was 16, I wrote a check and got charged 30 dollars by the bank for overdrawing my account. What was the magical purchase? A soda... for $1.05. Life lesson learned: learn to balance your account! So you'll have money to spend, even for silly things like stamps, sodas, or whatever.

You used a debit card to buy one stamp!? I'm surprised they'd even consider accepting it.

If you dont even have 57 cents, I cant even imagine how you pay for tuition. You may as well work at the damn bookstore.

I can't believe the number of 'I agree' outweighs the number of 'you deserved it'. You totally deserved that shit.

I use my debit card for everything too. Swiping a card is easier than counting out bills or change.

Everyone makes mistakes. I accidentally bought an album on iTunes using my touch, and lost $30. I would have afforded what I intended to buy though.

You're from Canada, postage stamps are only 54 cents for within Canada right now, not 57.

What would be really ironic would be if you were getting the stamp to mail a deposit.
