Signature Debit Transactions. The alternative to using your PIN when you swipe your debit card is signing for your purchase. However, when you sign, the merchant is stuck with higher fees. Payment processors charge merchants a fee that amounts to a percentage of the sale. So, the bigger the sale, the higher the fee.
A canopy bed is a decorative bed somewhat similar to a four-poster bed. A typical canopy bed usually features posts at each of the four corners extending four feet high or more above the mattress. Ornate or decorative fabric is often draped across the upper space between the posts and a solid swath of cloth may create a ceiling, or canopy directly over the bed.
Posted on July 29, 2010 by Kim. A platform bed is a bed frame, often with head and foot board, with many wood slats running from side to side, which are preferably no more than 3 apart in order to provide proper support for your mattress. A traditional bed can also have wood slats, but typically has only 1-3 to help support a foundation or box spring. The difference between a traditional bed and a platform bed, is that you can place a mattress directly on a platform bed without a box spring or foundation. With a traditional bed, you would place a box spring or foundation upon the bed frame and then your mattress would be placed on top.
