    I, like many of you, have been trying to budget my app store spending on a budget. Personally I've been trying to keep my receipts at $10 or less.

    I found out that if you go into your account info and retype your security code for your credit card, it automatically resets your bill. That means if I already spent $10 and a new game came out that I wan to try, all I have to do is go into my account info and retype that number and I start from $0.

    It's completely cheating.

    hmmm... maybe I should have stated that better.

    My goal is to not have my iTunes receipts go over $10, which means I have to wait the week or so until they send out the receipt. If you reenter part of your payment info in iTunes (not change it, just reenter it), iTunes automatically sends you the receipt.

    So, instead of having to wait a week, I can do it immediately, which defeats the purpose of having the budget.

    If I was going to commit credit card theft I'd want to get something a lot more expensive, than an iPhone game. ;)

    Relying on technology too much there. Just do it the old-fashioned way: grab a pen and paper and do the math. U are one of the reasons why the economy is the way it is right now. Thank you...

    I have to admit, my reckless app purchasing has completely destroyed the entire US economy. We've been trying to keep it under wraps, but a good 1/16 of the $700,000,000,000 bailout is going straight to me to help correct the problem.

    My apologies. :(

    You are one of the reasons that Ron Paul was not the Republican candidate.

    Yeah i just saw on tv a barack o'bama commercial saying that the first thing he is going to do before getting the troops home is wipe out the app store to restore the economy to eqilibrium. Good idea in my opinion.
