I do alot of shopping online and find the best price before I go shopping. I needed a pan for DD for Christmas and one for myself. Amazon has it for around $30 each. Bed, Bath and Beyond has it for $30 also......but there I have to pay tax and use about 2 gallons of gas to get there and back, BUT I have a $10 off coupon for EACH of the pots. So I could get it there for $10 less plus do more errands around the area, to get more out of the gas.
I called BB and Beyond to make sure they had the pots. I'm thinking I'm pretty smart.
I put something in the car that needs to be returned at another store.
I drive 22 miles, thinking of all the things I needed to do after I buy the pans.
Pulled into BB and Beyond and reached for my purse...........and it wasn't there!! I forgot it!! :0! Can't do a dang thing without it. BUT........I keep a $20 in my glove box for emergencies and had about $2 in change. I figured I could at least buy 1 pan. Then I find out the pans have glass lids, which I didn't want. :help: So I'm thinking I just wasted 2 gallons of gas and time.
Then I decided to buy one pan for DD. She probably won't mind the glass lid. I had just enough money.
I had to forget about all the other things I was going to get done and drove home very carefully those 22 miles, since I didn't even have my driver's license.
I think what happened was that I carried my coat and something else to the car and thought it was my purse. :doh:
Oh well. It could have been worse. But I have to laugh at myself that I was so very prepared with where was the best place to buy which thing, but forgot my danged purse. Sometimes I wonder about my brain.:~)
