SOLD!!!

January 12th, 2008 at 01:41 am

Sold my engagement ring at a house sale my co-worker held today. Got a fair price as well. Very thankful she handled that sale for me. Other ring did not sell. Will put all ring proceeds into the money market savings account. Deposited a check owed from my ex into the savings account today. Working on building up that account and saving.

Bought 6 bulbs for recessed cans lights.
Spent $9.99 for 6 at WALGREENS. Bought one treat for me for a dollar. Ate at home tonight. Low heat as well.

Will return purse to the mall on Saturday. Will pack lunch for work on Saturday. Will drink free juice at work.
Will keep an eye open for free stuff as I work. Saturday will tackle basement, also I will journal.

    Oh? An engagement ring? I assume there's a story behind that, but I just don't know it. Big Grin Well, anyway, glad things worked out well for you.

    Best freebies for lunch are at hedge funds. Lunch is catered in everyday because the traders can't leave there desks. I was at a place, where they had a lady come around and give you snacks, coffee, juice, soda, etc. It was unreal.

    A lot of places (investment houses and banks) use to have free lunches and breakfasts for officers.

    I work at an assisted living complex.....I empty on average 45 trash cans a day. Somedays I find nothing but garbage...other days I find many free items or the residents ask if I want things.....OR I AM BOLD and ask myself. Next week I am cleaning out a closet for a lady...I already bought trashbags to take home all the free goodies she does not want. She is HAPPY to get rid of things and is glad I can take them for her. Pretty nice perk.

    So glad the ring sold. Maybe you could take the other to a pawn shop. If it is gold, gold is going for top dollar right now! Some jewelery shops may buy it too. Keep looking!

    Good thought!!! I am very happy the ring sold. I was only sad for about two mins...I thought about getting that ring and wearing it for so many, many, many years----then I got over it. Which tells me the time was right to sell and close another chapter on my past. I am getting on with life and coming to terms with my divorce as well.

    Glad you were able to sell your ring! Interesting perk for your job!
