After the operation, one of the important things to do is to stick various fluids into your eyes at very regular timed intervals.
So, much to my delight, my watch from grade eight died on Friday morning. Batteries ran out.
So, on the way back from a follow-up appointment at the eye doctor I stopped off at London Drugs and bought a new cheap watch. This one only cost $15 and looks like it was designed in communist Russia. It puts the total for replacing the watch band at $40 now.
While there, I saw Harry Potter on sale for $29.
My initial plan for this book was to buy it from Superstore. The last book they had was cheaper than most places. This time they were selling it for $23. But that is in the liberal sense of the word. A better way to describe it would be to say they were sold-out at $23. Save-on-foods had a similar story.
Chapters was right out with a $38 price tag. I am cheap!
I’m not in a rush. It is just a book. My only requirement is to have it read before I go on my long vacation. So I was thinking of going for Amazon which was selling the book for $22.50.
Needless to say, I picked it up at London Drugs. It seemed the cheapest of all the options. If I did go with Amazon, I know I would order several other things I didn’t desperately need that would have added $60 to the price.
And yet, I still have yet to read more than the first page.

Oh yeah. Laser operation seems to have worked.

Woot!
