* Today’s Costco shopping: 24th time this year, 2nd time this month

I got 2 more long sleeves shirts. They look very good. But, after taking them home, I realized they are see-through. (show my nipples). So, I’ll have to take them back.

They had 2 packs of stainless steel water bottles for $19.99. I’ve been looking for one of these for some time. 

Plastic bottles are bad for the environment. Also, plastic bottles contain BPA (a bad chemical, they say).

But, personally, I bought these stainless steel bottles because they look cute. I’ve been running twice a week for the last 2 months now. I always carry a plastic water bottle when I run. Now I’m going to look even cooler.

I ordered 2 of these sports caps (below) from eBay ($11.31)
I hope they fit the bottles.

* Today’s Costco shopping: 23rd time this year, 1st time this month

Nothing special… boring.

Oh, I bought 2 long sleeves shirts.
Now I have three identical shirts. I love these shirts. They are so affordable ($16.95 each). The quality of these shirts is amazing. 

Since I never wear an undershirt, I always worry about my nipples showing through the shirt. These shirts are thick enough, but I still have to be careful. Showing nipples through a shirt is a disgusting look on men. Well, the same goes for 85% of the female population.

Online Shopping

*51 & 52nd packages of the year

I bought a pair of brown shoes from Overstock.com ($30.00). These shoes are very comfortable. It equals my $150.00 pair of Ecco shoes.

Now I have a brown belt & a pair of brown shoes as a set. And I have a black belt and a pair of black shoes as a set. I’ve always wanted to wear clothes like that – matching colors.

I don’t even know why I bought this flask (below). I never drink. I thought it was cool. It was $6.00 including shipping. 

This entire year, as of July 11, I drank half a can of beer. That’s all.  3 weeks ago my boss brought beer to work. So, I pretended I was drinking… and I dumped it down the sink. 

Transformers

I watched Transformers (2007). I enjoyed this movie because I grew up in the ’80s watching the cartoon.

And I remembered seeing that movie set. I went to Down Town Los Angeles on September 9, 2006. I saw this movie set on the street, so I took a picture. Look below.

Now I know it was for Transformers

Below is a screenshot from the movie

Costco Shopping – June 15, 2009

* Today’s Costco shopping: 21st time this year, 2nd time this month

I went to Costco during my lunchtime shopping. I hurried without eating lunch.

I spent $190.00.  2 long sleeves shirts & 2 belts were $60.00.

Long Sleeves Shirt:
I thought I had enough shirts. I have about 15 short sleeves shirts. They are all pretty new. Then I fell in love with long sleeves shirts. I think I look better in long sleeves shirts. Short sleeves shirts look casual. Long sleeves shirts are more professional and grown-up.

Anyway, I started to buy long sleeves shirts. I will be happy if I get about 10-15 more long sleeves shirts. I should try NOT to buy any more shirts. I am now making less money than last year. The bad economy is affecting my income as well. It’s a little depressing, but I guess I’m still doing OK. I just need to stay healthy.

Belts:
This is another purchase I made because of costcogilrinVA. I paid special attention to look for these belts. Finally, I have black belts to go with my black pants. Thank you costcogilrinVA Cool

Starbucks Coffee:
I like Starbucks coffee. Peet’s coffee is my favorite, but they are way too expensive.

Coupons:
I used 3 coupons (RedBull, beef jerky, & baby back rib) and saved $14.50. I only buy RedBull when they have a coupon ($8.00 this time).
