Blew $30

March 27th, 2007 at 08:12 pm

Well, I went shopping today to get a few things that have been on my "to get" list and I wound up getting a new pair of glasses.
I am perfectly happy with cheap reading glasses and I bought some a few months ago at the dollar store. I can see fine, but when I put them in my purse, the glass lens falls out. The lens just sits in the glass.
It is embarassing to have the lens fall out just when you are ready to play bridge.
I guess that is why they cost $5.
So, I splurged today and got new reading glasses with no frames, so the lens can't fall out. All together, I spent $33 at Rite Aid, but I used my tuesday discount card and saved $3. I will put that in my challenge money.
Prev. total $6421.00
today 3.00
new total $6424.00

    i wouldn't call that blowing money Julie... just think of it as investing in a pair of glasses and also in yourself and your happiness...
    just think of all hassle you will avoid next time you take your glasses off and put them in your purse....

    I firmly believe that to own things that work is frugal in the long run. Cheap glasses that fall apart -- forgettaboutit!
