Today I took part in a silent auction with the proceeds to benefit the Hurricane Katrina victims. I bid on a bunch of stuff, but came away with two incredible deals. Now, I didn't come to work with the intention of buying anything other than lunch from the cafe or maybe a snack from the convenience store. I've been good about staying true to my monthly budget for the most part, but today changed things... a lil' bit. After it was all said and done, I ended up hittin' up the ATM machine twice. However, with the things that I got today, I can stash a lot of it away til Christmas. Anyway, this is what I ended up buying:
