I've been enjoying Karen's thread on being cheap --- but I bet most of us are cheap about some things and spendy on others!


What do you splurge on?

V,


This should probably be in the "cheap" thread, but we were just talking about shoes in this thread, so I'll share this here.

Don't know if this is an option for you, but I wear sneakers/flip flops into work everyday. Once I'm there I change my shoes to one of the many pairs I have stashed in my bottom desk drawer. (This is even better when I'm working those 12+ hour days - after 5:00/6:00 the heels come off and the sneakers go back on!)

I work in Boston and at least 75% of the people I see every day on the train/downtown do it...even guys do it.






Past Races:
-Boston Run to Remember Half Marathon, 5/29/11 (2:35:11, no training!)
-Corporate Run, 3.5 miles 6/2/11 (36:38, 4 days after running the half!)
-BAA 10k, 6/26/11 (1:04:52, wanted to be under an hour...)
-Tavern to Tavern

I had to LOL at carrying 2-3 bags and looking like you are going on a trip!

That is how I am everyday - I have my purse, then my school bag, then my gym bag.

There is no way however I could carry it all in one - I've got to bring textbooks, binder, laptop, snacks, etc. in my school bag, then since I shower/change at the gym every morning before school I bring all my shower stuff, make-up, clothes, shoes, hair dryer, curling iron, etc.

I keep thinking my neighbors must think I don't really live here because every time I come/go I look like I am leaving for a week! Its always at least 2 trips to the car too.

I'm onto something....a quality leather carry-on luggage tote, but at a bargain price.
