Shopping, or not
Feb. 22nd, 2005 09:37 pmQuestion: is it possible to go to Kmart with a $50 gift voucher and come home with it intact?
Answer: yes
Bah. I did get a clematis, a foxglove, a lavender, a venus fly trap, 3 punnets of annuals & 4 punnets of vegetable for a total of $4.30 though. Must have hit the "discounted plants" rack just after it had been restocked.
But spending the coucher, no luck. I wanted a shredder & a DVD. The cheapest shredder was $45 (and the post office up the road has the exact same one for $10 less) and they don't have the little portable, voice recorders tape thingies and I couldn't find any DVDs I wanted. 3 aisles of them arranged alphabetically and I couldn't find any of the ones I thought of. I'll have to make a list.
Clothes etc. are out because they're things I'll buy anyway when I need them. Voucher is for things I want but can't justify buying. There was be something that I want that I can buy there :\
