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!
