Yesterday was a no spender, which made a 2 NSD in a row. We don't get much of those these days. So that was a good feeling. Today was a different story though. Went to Borders and got the Smurf Box Set for a gift. It was on special, a saving of $11. I also bought a book for myself, it was half price. I just realised it's the first book I bought for more than 1 year, maybe even 2 years. I really can't remember when the last time a book for myself. I used to always buy books to keep. This one is one of those authors that I collect. We also ended up eating out for dinner. That was $16 that we didn't need to spend. It was DH's shout, so it is coming out of his allowance money.
Interesting News: Just heard from the news today that Costco is opening a mega store here in Melbourne Australia. I'm not sure whether this is good news or bad news yet. I guess good that it will increase competition and eventually drive prices down. Something that we do need here is more competition. We don't have store like Costco at the moment so it would be very interesting to see how it affect the market.
