– Against my better judgement, tonight we went to select the family Christmas tree. A few years ago we waited a week before Christmas and got the best deal at Home Depot. I think it was $10 for any tree in the yard. They were basically throwing them away but not this year.
Not to be a scruge, I gave in and agreed to buy a tree. Now, I did not lose all my judgement. I refuse to get a high dollar Noble or any tree over 7ft. Michele crings every year. She wants a tall tree so bad but I refuse to spend over $40 for a tree that I will burn on at the beach house at New Years Eve (tradition).
Anyway, as always, I order the kids to find some money and as normal I was the only finder. I think the newness is wearing out. I looked under the checkout counter and found a shiny new penny ($0.01). The guy said I could have it. I had to really reach bad to get it. He will probably not balance out tonight and get fired over that penny. ha ha ha
Grand Total: $6.14
