Vince, The Greatest Bargain Finder

 I get so frustrated with Vince and his shopping. He LOVES to shop. He loves to shop alone and I love for him to shop alone! He likes to go down the aisles and look at EVERYTHING. In Walmart, there are several aisles that have all the markdowns concentrated in one area. I have zero interest in walking down those aisles and looking at everything. I go to the store with a list. If it isn't on my list, I don't even notice. Last week, or week before maybe, we did go to Walmart and I asked Vince to meet me in the grocery area in 20 minutes. It didn't take me 20 minutes to get what I needed so I was kinda browsing and I did pick up some things not on my list.

This is probably going to sound crazy to everyone but me but when I get a new phone, I keep my old phone and even though it's no longer activated to be used as a phone for making calls, I will keep it upstairs and use it for taking pictures when I'm cooking. I can email the pictures to me via WiFi and then prepare the blog posts or Facebook entries from my computer downstairs.

A few months ago, we switched to T-Mobile and got new phones. My old phone is not holding a charge. I have to keep it on the charger, take it off, take a picture and put it back on the charger. I don't want to have to do that. I forget to put it back on the charger and then I need it and it's dead. 

While Vince was checking out the bargain aisle at Walmart, he found U. S. Cellular phones phones that were marked down to 75 cents each!! He bought two, and gave one to me to keep upstairs for my photos in the kitchen (or anywhere I want to use them upstairs). Can you believe 75 cents for a phone? And, they came with a wall plug and a cord and there's room for an memory card (or whatever you call it to insert to have more memory). I can't believe it got those but I'm happy he did. 

Every time I take my real phone upstairs, I leave it and have to go back up and get it when I realize it's up there. Now I can not even bother to take my real phone upstairs!

I wouldn't do this because the screen is too small on a phone but I could put Markup (the stitching app) on one of those phones!
