fun..last thing you bought that you usually do not

what is the last thing you bought that you have never bought before ? Maybe you had a coupon , or thought it would be useful ?

my answer...I bought those huge ziploc bags...the ones that are "supposed" to hold all sorts of sports gear and all...I thought they would be good to pack my ds's clothes in when he visited his dad..I do not like them..they don't hold as much as I thought..and the top ballooons up and pops open.

On a whim, I bought a few things from Adam & Eve a while ago. I got a free DVD with my order.

I bought an expensive swivel monitor stand a while back ago.I thought it would be cool to be able to move my monitor in every which direction I would need it.Turned out to weigh a ton,and barely supported my heavy monitor and ended up busting my table.

I usually just get whatever phone is free but I've saved for iphone. I will probably never use most of the features but just once, I want to say I got it first instead of last LOL

How exciting! Enjoy that little one and congrats!

I bought an icee at Target. I only got it because it was pouring rain when I went to leave so I waited in the snack bar since I had the baby with me.

I bought a pair of those Candies style really high sandals at Target. They were not expensive, but I am tall and I was not sure when/where I would wear them. But I REALLY wanted them! Then my MIL ended up giving me the money for them!!

I bought a tiny little hello kitty water cooler (plugs into the wall to keep water cold) for my kids to have on our back deck. Its very, very cute. It holds a gallon of water but, its better than them running inside every time they are thirsty. I keep little plastic cups out on the deck beside the cooler. Then we just take them in at the end of the day and wash it. It has been really worth it. Plus, its promoted them grabbing a glass of water instead of running inside for a minute maid water or something more expensive. So, I'm saving too!!

I treated myself to a Mocha Joe at Burger King. I dont usually drink coffee and this one was SO good. I have to limit myself to one iced coffee every 2 weeks or I would become an addict.

I bought a bag of chex mix. I like it at work, only, and I only buy it when it's $1. (rather than $2.50+).

So this week, they'reo on sale for $1 and I grabbed 6 bags (less coupons of course...)
