    She wanted the one that said Freak on a Leash down the arm, but I saved the $28 and bought her the other version.  She was just happy to have it.  It's the same sweatshirt other than the arm junk.

    I saw Korn for the first time back in ‘95 at maxwell s , Hoboken.  Sugar ray opened (think mean machine, not fly).   I got my ass handed to me that night lol. Saw them again a few times at the stone pony in Asbury Park, nj.  Such a great live band.  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    They really are.  My daughter and I have seen them 3x and my husband has seen them 4.  One of her absolute favorite bands.

    Could have saved another $15 with a plain black sweatshirt.

    True, but...

    We went to the concert and the only credit card I had was our Discover. They took every card but that. (Haven't had that issue in probably 15 years.) We promised her that we would make good on it. Turns out that the sweatshirt we got from Hot Topic is much nicer than the tour merch.

    Being the capitalist pig that I am, I spent a good $40 or so on records and books to hopefully resell at the bookstore.    But to tell the truth, I don't make a lot of money doing it.  I'm a really shitty capitalist pig!  :lol:

    To start:
    I spent about $40 on tolls/parking/train yesterday to drive up to Newark and then train into Manhattan and back.

    But that $40 allowed you to pass those tolls, park your car, and use the train. What'd ya get for your $40 Tenclub membership this year besides the ability to post on this godforsaken message board?

    That said, as far as your premise, I'm actually with you. It's only $40. Take it or leave it. I think it's a pointless waste of money, but I'm willing to pointlessly waste that money on it every year. 
    or $20.....

    Ha.  My wife picked some of these but I like them all with the exception of the kale.  They didn't have organic bok choy, which was a bummer.

    Paid $23.00 for lunch for myself and coworker today.  The chicken tenders were not very good and I just went berserk.  Typing a letter to the BBB after I post this message.   I'll remember this for years.   But I'll continue to go back again and again.

    We're going to need more information about this transaction. It does fall below the specified $40 threshold you know.:wink:

    And.....they are from Asia -- winner, winner!  :lol:
    Some of my favorite vegetables.  I would spend $40 on a meal of turkey/chicken breast chunks and baby bok choy the way I like it cooked.  (Don't forget the fuggin hot sauce!)
