Day 75: Groceries and Shipping

FedEx — $17.80
Ship­ping for a big box of clothes I sold on eBay to a sin­gle bid­der.  This bill was a bit stale — I let it sit because FedEx lost the box!  My buyer was very upset because it was stuffed full of Hanna Ander­s­son shirts, Levi’s jeans, and Tim­ber­land Gore-Tex hik­ing boots.  Any­way, FedEx finally claimed the pack­age lost.  I issued a Pay­pal refund to the buyer and now await my refund from FedEx.  They’d bet­ter not lost that.

 Daughter’s School — $300.00
I’ve been mean­ing to stock up on gro­cery cards again for almost two weeks but kept for­get­ting to call dur­ing school hours.  I’d always think of it about 1/2-hour after dis­missal.  Today being the last day before school let out for a week, I finally remem­bered.  I bought two $100 Kroger cards and one $100 Vit­a­min Cot­tage card.  Now I can do some stock­ing up and get my much-needed hol­i­day bak­ing sup­plies while also feel­ing good about hav­ing vic­ar­i­ously donated $15 to the school’s oper­at­ing fund.
