It's Boxing Day today and I'm tempted to get out to a couple of stores to see what's on sale. I have my PC gift card from my Mom, my credit at Canadian Tire, and a fifty dollar bill burning a hole in my wallet. I even have a scratch card that won me $2 that is trying to pull me out of my warm house.
As much as I complain about excess consumerism and the blight of the sweatshops, I do have a small wish-list of my own. In no particular order ...
A stainless steel kettle
because heating plastic scares me
One or two CD/DVD books
to help with my space-crunch in the new apartment
A fire-safe
to store my important documents and ID
A CD alarm clock
because my current alarm clock is terrifying to wake up to
A stock pot
for making my yummy frugal soups
and a pair of skinny black jeans
because my blue ones are looking a little worn
ETA: I just looked out the window to see a whole lotta white stuff, so I guess my shopping list for black-coloured goods will have to wait a while longer.

All I'm thinking of buying is an Apple Shuffle... *ponders* But I want to get it on sale. This is going to be tough!
ReplyDeleteI use my cellphone to wake up LOL I hate alarm clocks especially since I travel a lot and it's easier just to use my cell.
Skinny jeans = I'd like a pair too.
Pot = V. Useful.. am going to make spicy creamy chicken soup today.
I like the idea of a fire safe too.
And a CD binder is TOTALLY worth it. But I'd say the best thing on the list is the kettle :D

Just a girl trying to find a balance between being a Shopaholic and a Saver...
Isn't it beautiful? I can't believe I just said a kettle is beautiful :)
