A pretty bong
Did you name your bong? If not, do consider christening it Pongo Pygmaeus.
I bought my medication and mint chip coconut milk ice cream. C'est Magnifique!

Paid to have my passport renewed. It should arrive it about a month. Then I will be free to roam the world once again.

I just placed an order at Amazon. I subtracted the $34.65 voucher I got from Coinstar from dumping my change into a Coinstar machine, and it was still pretty expensive ($70 and change). They collect sales tax now, and I had to pay shipping for Marketplace items.

The face recognition thread made me realize that I've never read anything by Oliver Sacks and that I might enjoy his stuff. So I found a cheap anthology through Amazon Marketplace. It's not everything, but if I like what I read, I may want to get the rest of his books. Cheaply, of course.

A bunch of (much-needed) new clothes from Gap, Old Navy and a local thrift store. I got:
4 pairs of dress pants for work (thrift store)
1 pair of khakis pats (Gap clearance rack)
3 pairs of jeans (thrift store)
2 pair of corduroy pants (thrift store)
2 pairs of denim capris (thrift store)
3 button-down shirts for the office (thrift store)
6 t-shirts/tank tops (Gap Outlet)
16 t-shirts/tank tops (Old Navy sale/clearance) (plus two more hand me downs with the tags still on from my boyfriend's mum)
a pair of yoga pants (Gap Outlet)
a zip up activewear hoodie (Gap Outlet)
a about half a dozen new pairs of socks (thrift store)
Spent about $225.00 on the lot, but seeing as most my clothes were a size too large or just very well-worn, it was a long overdue update. I still need new sneakers, more socks and summer shirts for the office and a few other things as well. But I think I need to recover first, mentally and financially

Yesterday I continued the clothes shopping spree and went on a quest for new sneakers and socks. I walk to and from work every day, so a good pair of sneakers is critical for me.
I found a pair of size 10 Asics sneakers on clearance at Bob's Store (I NEVER have any luck finding things I want to buy there) They were marked $28 but I had a 25% off coupon for Memorial Day (I was surprised they accepted it on top of clearance prices) so the sneakers were only $21.00.
Then I went next door to Marshall's and bought two ten-packs of socks ($17 total) and a pair of nice summer sandals (on clearance for $16 since they were the display pair and happened to be a size 10 SCORE!)
So grand total, I still only spent about $275 between the stuff I bought yesterday and all the things I listed above. I think I got a great bargain for the volume, and it's all nice stuff that should last a long time.

2 suitcases full of shopping. Shopped mostly at Ross`s, TJ Max, Target, Home Goods, Marshall`s 99 c store and Macy`s as they had huge discount for Memorial day.

You missed Payless Shoes.
But very impressive otherwise.

We went past the shop yesterday at West Covina, however I have bought at least 5 or 6 pairs at Ross`s.
I ordered some stuff from Superdrug, face masks, a new lipstick and baby lotion and I also arranged some pet insurance for the dogs as I hadn't got around to doing it yet. Tut, tut.
