What's It Gonna Cost?

Tonight I drove 20 miles for a FREE item. Now that I think about it, it wasn't really FREE because it was part of a BOGO deal. So I had to BUY one in order to get one FREE. Technically, that means I got 2 for "half off". Hmmm...20 miles to get an item "half off". Maybe I should've thought that one through a little bit.

On top of getting the item "half off", I probably spent more in gas than what the item was actually worth. Hmmm again. Now I'm starting to think that I probably ended up paying FULL price for BOTH items, and maybe a little bit more.

It wasn't anything that I needed, it was simply something that I WANTED. I received an offer via email...it looked good at the time...it expires tomorrow, so...off I went. Looking back, it probably wasn't one of my better moves.

Lesson learned. I'll think twice before I jump at another BOGO offer. That much is for sure.

How 'bout you?

Let the DIALOGUE begin: What's the farthest you've ever driven for a "FREE" item?

Talk to me!

Til next
