Pay and Save

Yesterday as I went about my chores I stopped into two places where I buy parts for snake repair as needed. Due to sheer forgetfulness, I didn't bring my copies of the invoices. But, I figured, they would know what I owed.

Debit card in hand I walked into my first vendor expecting that my bill was around $400. Lo and behold, it was $354 and some change. Sweet.

A few hours and a couple other stops later, I approached my second vendor. In my mind I owed them two hundred bucks. Yet it was $102 and few extra pennies.

Nice. Very nice. I fully realize that this is a stupid way to think of it, but I felt as though I had made $150 dollars by paying my bills. Pay your bills: make money. If it only actually worked that way.
