Aloha Friday - It Doesn't Cost a Thing

August 21, 2009


Aloha Fridays: where you ask a simple question, give a simple answer, link it up at An Island Life, and do a little visiting and a lot of relaxing. Join in!

My question of the day is: What is the last thing you bought?

Mine was a double hamburger value meal at Burger King for my son. Actually, I got him two of them cuz he's such a man and all.

Groceries--about a third of the amount we needed because all of the two-seater carts had broken straps (or none at all!).

Tami said...

Can you believe I haven't bought a thing in over a week!
A WEEK! I'm shocked and dismayed at my ability to just say NO. LOL

(the shop Oh HOLIC)!

what's wrong with meeeeeeee?.

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

Hmmmm...the last thing I bought was more K-Cups for our Keurig coffee maker. I think I'm long overdue to buy something just for ME. :)

Tammy Howard said...

The last thing I bought was wrist bands for my daughters. They say they need them to keep the sweat off their hands when they play their instruments, but I think they just think they look cool.

Last night....2 chick-fil-a sandwiches, 2 large waffle fries, 12 chicken nuggets and a vanilla milkshake. I bought the vanilla milkshake for myself and before taking a sip, I asked the boys if they wanted to try a little. I should have emphasized "a little" because they both decided they liked it and drank the entire thing!

Fruits.

Groceries!! I would guess your thinking something a little more fun...

I got some store made JCPenney blinds for my bedroom which were only $30 each on a super sale!! My cats ruined my last set of blinds chewing the cords.

...oh I did buy a new eye shadow last week for fun! I am a sucker for eye shadow.

The last thing I bought are Goodnites. Lil' D is potty trained, but is a deep sleeper at night {like me} and can't wake up to go to the bathroom. I use these instead of plastic sheets. I used to stay up past midnight to take him to the restroom, but I couldn't do it anymore. Aloha and take care.
