I took a road trip with my 11-year-old son and three of his pals a few weeks back. A long drive with four fifth-grade boys is enough to cause a man some anxiety. Retail therapy was in order, and there was a Cabela’s on our route. I pulled in with a somewhat complex mission:
- I had an online purchase to return.
- I had an e-gift card burning a hole through my iPhone, and designs on the considerably expensive item I wanted to put it towards.
- My Cabela’s Club Visa — my go-to-card for bonus points — had been compromised the week prior. I hadn’t yet received a new one.
