    Angry Expensive Weekend

    This weekend is a real budget-buster for us. I had to buy a dress for an upscale work event (which I did get from Ross, with an additional 10% off because of some damage), so $20 for that. Then, I had to buy my books for the Fall term - $400! And that was for used! Today our dogs have to be vaccinated, which we do at Pet Supermarket's low-cost vaccination day, so another $92 for that. $512 in two days, and we're not even grocery shopping this weekend! GRRRR!

    Man that hurts. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try to be frugal things like this come up. That's why it's always good to have a little saved up...even though you can blow through it in a blink when it all comes upon you at once. Just keep plugging.....that's what we all have to do.
