Broke
I often ask myself why I'm so broke all the time. Well, today gave me some indication.
I left the house to buy two items:
Blender: $14.98
Hose $11.94
Estimated Cost: $26.92 + $1.62 (tax) = $28.54
Actual trip:
Big Lots (ghetto, I know) = $46.70 (no blender, no hose)
Bed, Bath, and Beyond: $8.21 (no blender, no hose)
Target: $80.75 (got the blender!!!)
Lowes: $61.05 (and I didn't buy the hose).
Actual Cost: $196.71.
That's a 689% expenditure increase for those of you keeping track at home.

We are consumers here. We consume, we are consumed with consuming and consume as much as possible. Gauging our happiness by the about of consumption we can do as a consumer. Do you see a pattern here?
