Lindsay Lohan's credit cards were reportedly rejected on a shopping trip.
The 'Mean Girls' actress is said to have attempted to make a purchase worth $300 at the Rag & Bone shop on Mercer Street in Soho, New York over the weekend, but was left red faced when the store wouldn't accept her cards.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Lindsay was trying to buy something for around $300 but her credit cards were declined. She looked really embarrassed and tried to negotiate before her friend finally stepped in and paid."
A representative for the 27-year-old star - who is said to be so strapped for cash that the production company behind her reality show on Oprah Winfrey's OWN network had to pay the security deposit and rent for her apartment - denied the reports as "completely false."
The news of her cards being rejected comes just hours after it was reported that she had parted ways with her personal assistant Matt Harrell because she couldn't afford to pay his wages.
A source said: "Lindsay would love to have Matt back as her assistant, but she just can't afford him. He did a really good job for her."

Cheryl Cole paid £18,000 for a metal statue.
The 30-year-old singer splashed out on the piece created by artist Willie Bester - known for his installations made of found objects - which shows a mother pushing her pram while her child holds a gun, to help portray the "horrors" of crime in South Africa.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Willie's art is about the violence and horrors of crime in South Africa.
"He makes scrap art sculpture and she's loving it."
Cheryl bought a second home in Cape Town after spending time there soaking up the sunshine over last year's Christmas period and is keen to fill her new residence with native and "iconic artwork".
The source added: "Cheryl is really getting into the culture here and she wants to support South African talent.
"Now that Cheryl has a second home here she is furnishing it with iconic artworks.
"She saw the Willie piece at the Mount Nelson hotel, where it's exhibited in the gardens.
"She completely fell in love with the sculpture, and snapped it up straight away."

Kimberley Walsh believes it's "a little late" for a "big family".
The 32-year-old star - who was catapulted to the spotlight as part of Girls Aloud - is expecting her first child with partner Justin Scott and insists women "struggle with having it all" since they want to build a career but at the same time their biological clock is ticking and "the years fly by".
According to the Mail Online, she said: "I would like a big family but I am realistic and I'm aware at 32 I have left it a little late.
"So I'm realistic about how many I can have, but I would like to have more than one.
"I think women today do struggle with the having it all element. For me there was nothing stopping me but I wanted to have it all and take the opportunities that I had with my career and create a really secure family unit, a home.
"I can relax and it's set up and no financial pressure. It's a tricky one because we want to indulgent in all these massive opportunities which come your way and soak it all up and I think the years fly by and then you are suddenly in your thirties."
Kimberley is thrilled to be in a position where she's had great success and achieved many of her goals and believes she can now "dedicate" her life to the little one.
She added: "But now I'm in a position where I have indulged everything I could ever what to do, from singing to musical theatre to presenting and modelling - 'Strictly [Come Dancing]'.
"I've travelled. I'm in a good mental state, I'm completely fine about being selfless for the first time ever and I can now dedicate my life to a baby.
"That world- which is a world away from where I came from - will hopefully be passed on to my kids, and that's the benefit of it. I'm lucky to feel like that by my age."

Kylie Minogue cried herself to sleep every night after splitting from Andres Velencoso.
The 'Sexercise' singer has admitted she isn't quite over her decision to part ways with her partner of five years last year, but is moving on with her life and is happy they have remained on good terms.
Asked whether she was still going through heartbreak, she confessed: "I could be, yeah. I could be for sure. It's not that long ago. I'm past the crying every night stage...
"Thankfully, Andres and I are still in touch. Obviously, not like we used to be... he's a great guy, and that's important ... I'm enjoying that I'm so distracted. I'm not sitting at home pining."
The 45-year-old star has had her fair share of serious relationships over the years, but has never married and she believes the official ceremony wouldn't have aggravated her heartbreak any more.
Kylie explained: "I think legalities can make it a little bit more of a headache, but you know there's still heartbreak and emotional sadness and all of the things that come with bad break-up, even if you're not married."
However, the 'Wow' hitmaker believes the pain of separating gets a tiny bit easier each time it happens.
She added in an interview with Attitude magazine: "It does [hurt], but I guess you have resilience because it's not the first time you've been down that road. I know that I'll get through just about anything as much as I don't want to be tied down, I wouldn't wanted to tie someone else down."

Jennifer Garner is besotted with her son.
The 'Draft Day' star has three children, including daughters Violet, eight, and Seraphina, five, with her husband Ben Affleck, but admits there is "nothing like" the love she gets from their two-year-old little boy Samuel.
The 41-year-old actress told E! News: "With a little boy, you have somebody who is going to love his mama. There's nothing like it."
The brunette beauty says her entire family are sports fanatics and love hosting American football parties for their friends.
She said: "(Ben) watches and I manage the chaos behind him so that he can watch. When I talk about managing chaos I'm talking about managing three little chaotic people, plus whatever friends bring their chaos over and we try to let the guys watch as much as we can."
She added: "My little dude does love a football. He can already sit and watch an entire game. He really gets it."
Asked about her daughters, Jennifer said: "They definitely care about being girly but they're definitely athletes. They're out there, they're ready to try out for sports, play hard and practice."

Bradley Cooper is still madly in love with Suki Waterhouse.
The 'American Hustle' star recently sparked rumours that he had split from the British model after more than a year of dating, amid reports he had reconnected with his ex-girlfriend Renee Zellweger, but friends close to the couple insist they are still very happy together.
A source told E! News: "Bradley and Suki are very much a couple."
The duo haven't been seen together since attending a post Oscars bash in Los Angeles in early March, but the blonde beauty, 22, was spotted arriving at LAX airport over the weekend to spend a few days with the 39-year-old star.
It was previously revealed that Suki was "amazed" by Bradley's level of intelligence when she first met him in London in February 2013.
A source said: "She was ready to write him off as another hunky dumb actor, but Bradley really surprised her with his fluency in French and the intense pile of reading material he has beside his bed.
"He also always carries a backpack of very intellectual books with him to stave off boredom."
Another friend suggested the aspiring actress hopes to walk down the aisle with 'The Hangover' actor - who married actress Jennifer Esposito in 2006 before divorcing her in 2007 - in the near future.
The source explained: "There's a big age difference between them, but Suki adores Brad and after winning over his mum's heart she's hoping for a ring on her finger.
"He's so different from the men she usually meets in the modelling world. Suki loves that Brad's smart as well as sexy. He can't do anything wrong in her eyes."

Tori Spelling's new reality TV show, 'True Tori,' will focus on her marriage troubles.
The 40-year-old actress, whose husband Dean McDermott checked into rehab for personal issues in January after he was accused of cheating on the former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star, began filming a six-episode Lifetime series in Los Angeles on Monday (31.03.14) and, according to the official press release, she "has made the courageous decision to allow the audience to witness the most difficult and unpredictable period in her life."
A source told gossip website RadarOnline.com: "There's no telling yet how the show will pan out and how much drama there will be since they literally just started filming this morning."
Another insider told PEOPLE.com: "She once said she would never split up her family, and she seems to mean it. However, after the latest cheating rumors, Tori must have put her foot down. She likely gave him an ultimatum."
The show is set to premiere in the US on April 22.
Tori and Dean have four children, Liam, six, Stella, five, Hattie, two, and 18-month-old Finn, but a source recently admitted the star isn't sure whether she can save her marriage.
The insider said: "Tori keeps waffling. Even if they reconcile, it's going to be hard to trust him," but added: "Tori doesn't want her kids to grow up without their dad in the house."
The couple are also said to be battling severe financial issues but Tori previously denied they were "broke."

Ray Winstone claims his wife would leave him if he ever came home in character.
The 'Noah' star, known for taking on mostly "tough guy" roles, first met his partner Elaine in 1979, while filming 'That Summer,' and credits her for helping him to relax after a tough day of filming.
Asked about how he gets out of character, the 57-year-old British actor told BANG Showbiz at the UK premiere of the new biblical epic at the Odeon in London's Leicester Square on Monday night (31.03.14): "Every job is a different job and I think I approach it in a different way. I don't take it home with me because the characters I play, I wouldn't be married very long if I did. What I like to do is laugh, if I'm playing a bit I like to laugh a lot and take it right down there."
The 'Snow White and the Huntsman' actor had no problem growing a beard for the movie, as he likes to sport a more dishevelled look when he has time off, but was relieved to finally shave it off afterwards.
He said: "When I'm not working I grow a beard anyway. The only false bits on it were the two prongs. I had that for about four months. I felt like an old rock."
Other stars on the red carpet for the screening included Emma Watson, Russell Crowe, Douglas Booth, Jennifer Connelly, director Darren Aronofsky and former 'Made in Chelsea' star Kimberley Garner.

Sinitta, who previously revealed she aborted the 'X Factor' boss' baby in the 1980s, is thrilled that the music mogul and his partner Lauren Silverman have asked her to take on the important role in their six-week-old baby Eric's life.

Asked if her friendship with Simon is stronger now that he's a father, she added: "Absolutely, absolutely. It's the same as it's always been, but when you start being parents, as friends as well, I think it deepens your friendships."
Sinitta, 45, first revealed on Twitter on Sunday (30.03.14) that Simon and Lauren had asked her to be Eric's Godmother.
Posting a photograph of herself cradling the baby, she tweeted: "Wanted you to be the first (well after my mom and children) to hear about my next, serious new role... Drum roll...
