Psssst! Hey Piggy! Whaddaya want for Chrismuss???
Know what I want Piggy? A pair of Tag Heuer eye glasses, that's what!
Wait til ya hear about The Old G5er's latest weasel deal!! Only thing is I gotta wait until after January 1st to get 'em.
Now, these glasses are expensive... and if it wasn't for the fact that I'm gettin' 'em scott free, The Old G5'er would never get to slam 'em on his face. These babies run as high a $1,600 for a pair of 'em!!
Come January 2nd, I'm goin' to my eye doctor and order 'em. Of course that boy aint zackly gonna fork 'em over for nuthin. So I'll give him my insurance card. But because this pair of "Tags" are so expensive, the insurance company aint gonna pay all that much on 'em. So I'll have to pay what they don't. But that aint no biggy, Piggy! That's cuz The Mrs G5 has herself a "flexible health savings account" from her employer, and she says she'll use it to pay what the insurance company don't!!! That's my Chrismuss present accordin' to her!
And if that aint enough, I got a "Health Reimbursement Arrangement" from my former employer. So I'm gonna take the receipt I get from The Eye Doc, and send it in to be reimbursed! That's called "double dippin" but it's perfectly legal! I called my former employer's agent that handles my health reimbursement arrangement, and asked if my wife's plan pays for the glasses, can I submit to them for reimbursement too? I was shocked when they said "That's fine." Reason is, my wife has $$$ deducted from her pay check that's put into her "flexible health savings account", which is HER money, and she's free to spend it however she wants. And because my "health reimbursement arrangement" does not care where I get the money from to pay for the glasses, they WILL reimburse me. So The Old G5'er is gonna be walkin' around with a pair of $1,600 "Tags" on his head, which didn't cost him a dime! To me, this weasel deal is kinda like me winnin' 800 bucks playin' T5. It aint gonna happen by me buyin' a T5 ticket, that's for sure! G5
