What I Bought This Weekend

This weekend my husband and I went to my moms house.  Every time we go to my moms house we always end up going to Hot Springs for something.  Well my brother told us that Petco was having their $10 per gallon sale and that he got his 55 gallon.  I think they have the this sale once a year but I'm not sure because they don't ever put it up on the internet or advertise the sale just in general.  My husband was so excited that he jumped at the chance to go to Hot Springs.

Last year my husband got a 20 gallon for $20.00 plus tax.  He originally wanted a 40 gallon but last year they ran out of stock before we even got there.  But that was the Petco in Fort Smith.  However, this year we just ended up being in Hot Springs during their sale so we dropped by.  Yes, we finally bought him his 40 gallon and obviously if he gets a 40 gallon he's going to "need" his 40 gallon stand.  His stand was $59.99 and the original price on the 40 gallon was $109.99.  Our final total for just the 40 gallon and the stand was $113.59.  We saved about $70 buying his tank during this sale which I'm so glad they have every year.  I would hate to pay full price and I probably would never pay full price if I had to.  But I'm glad he got his 40 gallon cause now he doesn't bug me about it anymore.

As soon as my husband got home Monday night he set up the tank and the stand.  Our Kois are a little spooked still but I think it's just because they aren't use to the big tank yet.  I'm pretty sure once they get use to their new tank they'll be back to normal trying to get me to feed them every second of every day.

I finally got my new camera this weekend too.  I've been wanting this camera since I saw it come out a few years back and I never got the chance to buy it because it was always out of stock.  This weekend we went to Wal-Mart in Hot Spring on Albert Pike and there it was.  The original price was $89.00 but it was on sale for $79.00.  I was so happy!  I got my Samsung TL205!  It has 12.2 megapixels, 1.5" front LCD, smart auto, and 3x optical zoom.  The box said that the camera was supposed to be silver but when I opened it...it was black.  This was the last one they had so I didn't want to return it and I prefer black cameras because they're more neutral so I didn't mind it at all.  My husband was happy I was happy because I've been bugging him about this camera for ages now and we finally got it!  This weekend I think is the best ever.  We both got what we've been wanting for the longest time!
