But the Skyy vodka is so cheap (and so is the Makers Mark)

I don't think I've ever left Costco without spending a hundred dollars, but today I somehow managed to spend three hundred fifty-eight dollars and thirty-three cents, which seems a bit excessive. Especially since I also spent forty dollars and thirty-seven cents for a tank of gas to drive there. No kidding.

(And to make it worse, I really, really hate to be part of Bush's bragging rightsabout stimulated economy. It's because gas costs so much and we must drink a lot toget over it, I guess.)
