So I mosey on in, purchase two bottles of wine, a red and a white, and grab a sixer.
You know how you just pay for something and don't really think about the price? Yeah, that was me.
I get to the car and Mrs DW asks how much it was. "90 bucks, I says."
Then the penny, well, the dollars, dropped - I had just spent $90 on two bottles of wine and a six pack of beer.
Having been there many times in the past, I knew the wine was about $20 each.
The realisation hit. I paid $50 for a six pack of beer. Then the realisation hit the missus, I had just paid $50 for a six pack of beer.
Having had a ding dong about two hours previous about spending money wisely, she just looked at me and shook her head.
Yup, $50 for a six pack of brew, that I didn't even think was anything special.
I guess I'll have to try it again and reassess my thoughts on it.
