Imagine this: You’re shopping with friends, and you’ve been at it for a while. You’re wearing those shoes that should be saved for sit-down lunches only, but you thought you’d brave it. Silly. Your feet hurt. You’re parched. You could kill a donut or seven, but won’t because you’re with your friends who salad… and feel that you should do the same. Stephanie, the cool friend, says that she needs to make a quick detour to get some money out… so you all tag along… but she’s that person who won’t use just any ATM. Oh no, she needs to use the ATM for her bank to avoid fees… so you trek for 7 solid minutes. SEVEN. And you acquire a new blister in the process.
I’ve been that person. Not Stephanie, but the person tagging along behind Stephanie. There have been times when I’ve wanted to throw $2.50 at them and beg them to use the closest ATM and call it a day. SCREW THE FEES PEOPLE.
Enter buck. Well, to be more specific ME Bank’s Everyday Transaction Account with the new buck Debit MasterCard. We can call him buck for short. In my imagination he looks just like Brad Pitt {circa A River Runs Through It, NOT Brad of Twelve Monkeys, UGH}, riding in on a horse to sweep me off the ground {no mean feat!} and save me from the people who search for the ATMs. In reality he’s a rather handsome {not as much as Brad Pitt of the old days, but still!} guy and he’s fun too.

Buck hates ATM fees as much as anyone. He calls NO on them, and he will actually swoop in and reimburse you of any Australian ATM fee charges. Straight back into your account. 💑 Yes, that totally called for a romantic emoji.
The guys at ME Bank threw some money into my account and asked me to take buck shopping. Who was I to argue?
Here’s what happened. I want to take you into my bedroom. No, not for that reason… to show you this. My bedroom has been ignored for too long. Since having kids, we’ve struggled on the sleep front. Not us, them. They HATE to sleep. When they’re 16 I’m going to wake them up at 4:30am EVERY morning crying, screaming, “HOW DO YOU LIKE IT NOW?”
So, I thought it was time. Time to make it a nice haven that I like retreating to. So this is what it looked like before. Do. Not. Judge.
