tiamatladyHave I been a NAUGHTY GIRL out shopping!
I spent a LOT!
BUT (big but)
I truly believe all of it was necessary.
I started at Ocean State Job Lot, for more candles of the dollar variety, some chocolate, batteries and browsing for a second makeup type bag (didn't find one) Spent $7
Then to BJ's, for razor blades ( a nice ten pack of the Intuition razor I've been using - about a year's worth, I'm sorry I don't feel the need to shave every day, I'm single.) lots of contact lens solution and saline (about 4 months worth, because they have the mondo size bottles) conditioner (but no shampoo) pickles (YUM!) lots of my standard soap (I love Irish spring as an everyday soap, although once in a while I try something else) My crime here is the 8 books I bought, and the fact that I didn't "need" all this stuff for the trip. However I do "need" it when I get home, potentially broke. I believe I'm wise to buy this stuff before I left. The books saved me from going to the bookstore, which would have been an even GREATER spend, and got the books at the BJ's price, pretty much half the cover price. Bad romance novels. I wanted fluff. spent about *meep* $130.
Then to Walmart, for s few other items, for trip and after. Two more pairs of tights, some nice fluffy socks, bandaids for my potential blisters, some of the travel wipes packs. And a MOST OBNOXIOUS purse, which I believe will work for what I want to carry in my carryon. it's vinyl, and black and pink, and it's one of those initial purses. Bright pink obnoxious lower case j on it. *evil grin* Total cost about $40.
Went to BK for eats. had to change my order as I came up short in the cash department. He ends up giving me someone else's order, which I then decide to keep as I think I got the better deal. *grins*
Now I'm off for a quick run to Target, which I just should have gone to in the first place, for the power adaptor I need for my battery charger. I might look for some of the things I already have, and then return them tomorrow to Walmart, but it might just be a commando raid. They're open til 9. Goddess bless Target! Land of Milk and Honey!
I first have to calculate how much I spent, and see where I am. I have to pay a bill or two, so I can just blow my money, and I have to get some to set aside. Debb and Gang and I are going to the Chocolate Buffet the weekend I get back, and I figure I'll just set it aside now, so I have it when I get home and don't have to worry about watching out for it.
This new casual attitude, and just acceptance of my domain here is freaky. *shrugs* I have what I have, I can't do anything else now. I leave tomorrow.
poor D sounds stressed. I called to ask her if she wanted an adaptor, and she's packing and just not doing well. That will change once we're away and she just can't do any more. I hope *sighs*
off to Tar-jay!
