A totally useless purchase that I don't feel guilty about.

We got our taxes in! Yippy!!! OK, so most of the money is going towards my dental problems and some bills to get us caught up but David and I talked about some totally useless purchases and I actually don't feel guilty about them. First off, our TV in the living room is going out :( I am sad to say we are getting the little green lines of death going through it so we decided to take the plunge into flat screen TVs. We initially discussed getting a 55" TV but I really could not force myself to plop down that kind of money. We ended up going with a 40" TV and instead of an off brand we went with a name brand just because it is better quality and generally will last longer. The second useless thing I got was a nice camera. Since David took his camera with him to Iraq I have not had anything to take pictures with and I have been going through withdraws. So back to the camera, I got a really good deal on this camera and I am very anxious to get it so I can start taking pictures again. I decided to go with a  Nikon coolpix L110 (I did not pay the price listed, I payed considerably less) just because of the many features of the camera.

I love to take pictures and some may consider the purchases that we made useless or a waste of money but I am content with the decisions we made. :)
