Sunady totals

July 4th, 2005 at 02:28 am

It was a crazy sort of day. Mainly running around and getting everything done today so we can enjoy tomorrow.

Here is the spending for today:

$39.43 at the amazing discount store near our house. Its called Factory 2 U. Its a very discounted sort of place where you have to dig to find, but when you do, it all pays off. For this amount, I have four sets of matching and four sets of not matching pj cami tops and shorts. That makes 8 pj sets total. I may return the non-matching sets or hold onto them until I find something to coordinate with them. For that price, you cant beat it. But then, how many pjs does a girl need? Either way, it comes out to $5 a set!!!!

$79.12 at JCP; saved 58.06. However, all of it is going back tomorrow except for one pair of pants at $12. The tops didnt match and since I picked up four of them (just in case they did work) the whole lot will go back.

$5.05 US post office - returning an order from LE

$11.14 Target - got out of there with a light load

$28 - Albertsons - last minute groceries for tomorrow DH paid

$17 - Big Lots - DH paid; went in for cotton puffs and came out with an armload of deeply discounted gourmet items. I also figured out why I have this anxiety about finding places for everything. We have a couple of places in town like Big Lots where you can get amazing deals on food from nearly around the world as well as other misc items you might need around the house. When I go there, its purely about looking for deals to be used soon or in the future. This means they will need to be stored and then found later when the time comes. Because there is no consitency in their inventory, you find the good stuff and stock up before everyone else finds out about it. This means there is no rhyme(sp?) or reason to how you can store the purchases because you never know what to expect. You sort of have to keep a mental note of what is in there. Not enought brain space for that, so the worry that something will get lost in the shuffle.

Total spending for today: $134.74 but 67.14 will definately be going back. This leaves $67.60. Not nearly as bad as I thought. It just seemed worse from all the running around. (Had to make 3 trips to Factory because they dont have a fitting room. Thankfully its just down the street, literally.)

Still have a quarter of a tank of gas in the car; from the original fill up a month ago.

Didnt make it to the library, which I was really hoping to do. Will have to do that on Tues or some time during the week.

Tonight we are thinking about going out to watch the comet. We will probably drive out in to the mountains to get away from the city lights. That or we might watch the webcast because midnight will be rather late and the house is air conditioned with far fewer mosquitos.

I am feeling exhausted from this extended weekend. Cant say I will be glad for Tuesday to come...
