Allegiant!

Yep, I'm a book nerd.  I would rather curl up with a hot cup of coffee and a good book than..well, more than just about anything.

But I'm also cheap.  I don't like to buy anything that I can get for less..or for free.  I clip coupons.  I wait for movies to come out on DVD because RedBox is cheaper than the theater.  We have a rainy day fund of pennies, just in case.  So to buy a book, hardcover no less, is unheard of.

But that's just what I did today.  Hello Alligiant!  I've been waiting a lifetime for you!  Ok, so maybe just a few months, but it seems like a lifetime.  The good news, I own the book.  The bad news, I have so much work to do that I can't even pick it up.  But it will be sitting there waiting for me on Friday, after all the sessions and all the work.



The moral of the story?  Sometimes, pending a few extra pennies on something you love is far more worthwhile than watching them sit in a jar.  So save for a rainy day, but splurge every once in a while!
