Price Tags and Being Poor

Heyo,

I just reread yesterday's post and it started strong and ran a bit random, didn't it? That is what writing while sleep deprived gets you.

That isn't going to change quickly though, so unless I take another hiatus, random is here to stay.

Tonight it is story time.

I found my sister birthday present today. I can tell this to you because she doesn't read on a regular basis and also this post contains no spoilers. She knows I am poor.

I walk into a store and look at the jewelry. There was the pretty petite bracelet with little heart charms and I thought, perfect.

I asked to see it.

Still perfect.

The clerk said "132"

And I though. ONE dollar and THIRTY-TWO cents.

I said "I'll take it."

As she started to wrap it, she mentioned that it was a Tiffany's bracelet and that is when it hit me. She told me ONE hundred and THIRTY-TWO dollars.

Sense I had already said yes, I would have probably still bought it except, I didn't have that much money on me.

So I make some excuse about wanting to keep looking and I ditched the store.

Probably not going back there anytime soon.

<3 Lissa
