| Today I bought some cool dry-fit socks by Nike, 12 bucks a pop. I love these socks, they even have a L and a R on each sock so you always wear the same sock on the same foot. How's that for OCD. Ha. |
I had no idea those were that expensive. I got a pair as a gift from a student's parents. Too bad a I lost them. |

I do too, but now that I bought 100 blades I won't need one for a long time. I can't believe how much better my skin feels and looks after switching to a safety razor from one of those Gillete 4 blade things. And I save a ton of money on blades too. |

Here's my most recent purchase from iHerbs.com. The shipping from Calif. was relatively inexpensive, the service was fast (it arrived in 5 days).
I highly recommend this company for some things you can't get in Korea as conveniently (or at all). On your first order, you can get a $5 discount if you use this code: COC920

| If you order from iherb, does Korea stick you with insane duty fees? That's why I have never ordered from abroad...I don't want to pay extra for duty fees...it's like throwing money away. |

I bought/signed an 18 month payment plan for a Galaxy Tab.
Next step: buying a blue tooth earpiece, because I just can't bring myself to talking into a book-sized tablet... |

Lots of booze.
Plane tickets back home.
A Gibson Hummingbird - something I've always wanted to do and finally could afford.
Simple purchases, but I'm not one to buy clothes, CDs, Games, Herbals, etc., throughout the year and so maybe in terms of the wider picture I've not spent too much. I walk to work or take the train. When I hear about the small fortune that my family / friends are paying to insure and operation their vehicles I'm thankful that I'm not living and working there. Savings potential teaching EFL here, even with our purchases, are much more significant than back home, IMO. |

| I've been spending way too much money on camera equipment, I upgraded nearly my entire set with a full-body camera and 3 pro lenses. Damn set costs more than my car! |
