Clearance rack

I had what could be considered a "fat moment" tonight when I sat down in my chair and proceeded to break one of the casters on my chair.  One could argue I'm simply getting ready for the winter by adding some insulation, but I really haven't fluctuated much...I promise!  I decided to go down to Office Depot to look at some new chairs.  Chairs are expensive...very expensive.  I asked if they carried any replacement casters which they did.  I picked up a box of five for $30.  I was feeling pretty good about myself for not having to buy a new chair so I decided to treat myself to a new netbook sleave.  Did you know those things can run upwards of $30?  I decided I didn't want one that bad, so I started to walk out.  Long and behold I walked by a clearance rack and I saw a laptop sleave for $5.  I, of course, grabbed it up.  Long and behold, right next to that sleave on the clearance rack was a replacement caster for $1.99.  This is why I always check the clearance rack.  Sure, you could end up buying something you don't need, but you also have a chance of finding just the right item.

As an aside, the casters I bought didn't work and I might need to get a new chair anyway :)
