Re: I spent waaaaay too much money today;(
I forgot:
$15 at container store
Yikes!! That's a lot of stops! The amount is not that bad.
I hope you at least got some good stuff.
nordstrom rack was next to the container store/whole foods and I stopped in but didn't buy anything.
btw, you are to blame for the container store purchase - I need to purge and organize my closet so I bought those shelf separator thingies you have.
in all reality, everything is really your fault.
You hor!
I love those shelf separator things, they make the closet look very organized and it really does help create more space. I think.
No one told you to buy $60 worth of booze. It better have been cheap there at least.
my day was similar. but i bought way more exciting stuff like light bulbs and batteries.
i dropped OFF my dry cleaning so i didn't have to pay for it. yet.
I think it would be different if I spent $250 on a fab pair of shoes. instead, all I have to show for it is MH's clean pants, some hangers, and fancy cheese for tomorrow night's dinner. and I guess the champagne to console me while we watch 500 days of summer.
Why are you two talking like nothing is open tomorrow?
<panicking>
calm down. it's the 30th, not the 31st.
chill, stores will still be open tomorrow.
oh, and tem, remember that ssinca and i don't work. hence we can run around all day running errands.
here's my list:
+$?? deposited some christmas cash at the bank
$10 rite aid
+$11 returned something to target
$12 costco
$9 home depot
$0 dry cleaners...for now.
30 cents library overdue fine
jinx. you owe me a bottle of champagne.
dude, I have you beat by over $200. FAIL.
and how does one only spend $12 at costco? I'm baffled by this.
don't you get red or something when you drink alcohol? best just to leave it with me.
Me too? I cannot leave Costco without spending at least $100/$150 and same with Target as well. Anytime I return something to Target I go and get something else.
MH is afraid to let me go to those two places alone
This thread is so pitiful.
lol
target: i went straight to the return counter and didn't look around on my way there. when i go with hubs, he literally guides me around with his hands on my shoulders so i don't get "distracted." he is very good at staying focused/only buying stuff on the list. boooring.
costco: i pretended i was the hubs and went right for the batteries we need. i didn't even stop for a free lunch at the sample ladies' kiosks. as i was checking out, i realized i had grabbed AAA instead of AA. in an amazing show of willpower, i quickly zoomed back to the battery area and swapped them out and got back in line without looking at anything else.
i get red, but no matter if i'm staying at home and sleeping right after imbibing. and i only get red after a few glasses.
and this is how exciting my life is right now. it also helps that i am a total cheapass, hate hate hate clutter, and have negative income right now.
Oh man...me too. Seriously, I have spent $90 at Target in the past 2 days. On totally random stuff. I am on budget LOCKDOWN next year.
