Picked up a new backpack! Originally -- as in this Fri. (7/28) -- its price of around $60 was just too high. It was too high since originally I thought it was on sale (20% off). Unfortunately, it wasn't on sale -- it was the other items on the same rack that were 😟. Bummer!
But then I remembered: I had a gift-certificate worth $25! I got it at the Library Conference a couple weeks ago. Hey, why not use that? So I went back this afternoon and finally bought the thing, this time for $35!
[Almost 2 years later (7/15/25): And of course it wasn't till this week that the old baby finally fell apart (zipper -- she bust up). Happy to move everything over to the new baby!]
