This vs. That

So if someone gave you a nice little sum of money would you:

a) buy a pair of designer sunglasses you've been dying to get
b) buy that cute little purse you've been drooling over
c) slap it in savings
d) go on a short trip somewhere
e) other - you tell me

C - money in the bank gives me warm fuzzies.

can I split it up? Little bit for a short inexpensive trip and the rest for savings.

I don't usually messages because it takes time to do it, but for you I will. I have so much to say about Jana's political blog, but I will leave that to Bary to fight with Justin G.

a. I buy cheap sunglasses at Target. So, Nope here.
b. I already have a few cute little purses that I don't use, so no drooling here for me. Practicality wins over when you are old as me.
c. Ahh yes, I am always into savings. Since the stock market is down a bit these days, it should be a good time to buy. I am planning to live like no one else in my old age. I guess that's just around the corner.
d. Since I am saving the money, I guess I am staying home.

Well, it's not like it's A LOT of money, just a few hundred bucks. Backyard is 10 gizzles. But Jana and Sung you are so right. I already have sunglasses and a purse. So I'm convinced (for now at least) - the $$ will go into savings. But that doesn't mean I'm happy about it! I internally debated about this ALL day long. But then realized, this is why I have a spending problem.

Good choice Bianca...save your money until the next time you need a purse :)
