Spending like it's going out of style

The shopping continues. Over the past couple of weeks, I have bought a sofa and loveseat from Sears. Also bought some chairs to go with the dining room table. I made the final payment for my appliance upgrades. I think I'm done on the big stuff. Still looking for a bedroom set for me and a computer desk but those aren't high priority right now. Focus will be on the little and useful things like kitchen and other domestic stuff. I also need to get window coverings but I'll have to wait until I move in so that I can get the window dimensions.

I noticed Canadian Tire had the garage door opener that I bought for $20 less than what I had paid in May. So I went back and asked for the difference back. At first, they said they only refund differences within 14 days but they have a 90 day return policy. I asked what was to keep me from returning the one I had bought and re-buying it at the lower price. She agreed so she processed it just like that. Refunded the original and resold it to me at the lower price. Frugal? Cheapskate? Penny Pincher? Go ahead and label me. :) That money paid for a couple of tv trays I bought afterwards there.

I guess I have been spending lots of money as of late as my Mastercard account was flagged and put on hold due to the recent flourish of transactions. Last night, I tried paying for gas with one of those speedpay thingies at the gas pump and it got denied. I called Mastercard up this morning and straightened it out. I don't mind that this happens especially since I know people who have had their credit cards compromised. All is good now and it's time to hit the stores again today. Staples, Ikea and Home Outfitters, here I come!!!
