Day 237: Auto Floor Mat Insanity

By Suburban Wife | Published: April 25, 2008
Total Amount Spent: $50.35  Yesterday’s trip to the car wash, fairly expen­sive in it’s own right, got a lit­tle more expen­sive today. This morn­ing, while dri­ving home with my from the clos­est drive-thru Star­bucks win­dow (her cof­fee habit, she paid), I looked down for some rea­son and real­ized that I’d left her passenger-side floor mat at the car wash.  [...]

Day 227: Food & A Lampshade

By Suburban Wife | Published: April 15, 2008
Daily total spent:  $ 89.13 Today was all about food.  There was no deck con­trac­tor pay­ment to make — too windy to stain and fin­ish.  An inevitable expense put off until another day. Tues­day Morn­ing — $12.90 One of the “trea­sures” I came away with from my mom’s move across the coun­try was a lamp.  It’s a pretty cool [...]

Day 61

By Suburban Wife | Published: November 1, 2007
Library — $6.00 Argh. I hate these stu­pid taxes! This was for late fees on a cou­ple of books and DVDs that I thought I’d taken back last week; turns out I put them in the car only to have The Hus­band take them back out of the car. Out of sight, out of mind. Dumb! Whole Foods [...]
