Is that $100 per year? Don't live very close to Costco and don't spend that much per year, so may not make sense for me to get business account anyway.
Thanks for your and everyone else's suggestions. Pretty definitely going to stay away from CC liquidation, unless it's near the end of the liquidation period (ends sometime in March) and they still have tvs, so have to mark them way, way down. Nice fantasy, anyway. BTW, what's the weather doing up there today?
