		 Another factor this year is the banks really cracking down on identity theft - they are scrubbing really hard right now  
 
I was surprised when my bank manager called me this week to ask me if I had authorized a $150 charge because it was a charge in France - she told me that they are implementing all kinds of new checks that they havent done before with the buying season this year - which started full swing about two weeks ago.
