    Default paying with cash has paid off again

    I needed to get my rats a bigger cage. I know, I know ...Rats??!! Well yes! Even though they are rats, they are my pets and as a pet owner you take on a certain responsiblity to the animals you take in.

    Currently I have two rats in a very small cage. They fight terrible because there is just not enough room for the two of them. So I researched rat cages and the one that I wanted was $99. Holy Rat Cage! So as with my slippers, I saved up the cash and was ready to buy. I got online last Thursday and they were having a 20% online sale! So yeah me, I got the cage I wanted for $84 including tax and no shipping!

    So once again, being patient, and paying with cash paid off!

    Nice job, it always feels good when you can buy items with cash. I even don't like using my debt card anymore.
