iThings and more on Blockbuster

I forgot to mention one last thing that sort of has to do with New York since it has to do with me learning how to save up some money. First of all, I am not good at saving money at all. Not at all. I am really bad at it. If I want something, no matter how much it costs, I will usually get it. So, with that being said... let me tell you what happened on Wednesday. After class and somewhat out of nowhere I go like: "I want a new phone." What? Yes, exactly. So, I head to the Best Buy and I end up getting the most expensive phone everrr: the iPhone. I mean it was just calling out my name. It ended up costing me, with the extra things I bought for it, the accessories or whatever... it cost me like $380.00, even. OMG. I was like, meh. It's worth it. PLUS, I had to cancel my Sprint contract which will sometime in 2011. So, that was that. About $580.00 for a phone because the cancellation fee for Sprint is like $200.00. So, then the next day I started thinking about it and I was like, "Man, maybe it's not worth it." I mean, all that money PLUS I end up paying an extra $35 a month for the new phone plan. At the moment my phone plan is under my dad's plan because it's just cheaper that way. Eventually, sometime in 2011 before I move to New York, I will change it so that I can have my own plan but DAMN. It's crazy. So, the next day I decided to return it and stay with Sprint instead and just get a Blackberry with Sprint. In the end I ended up saving about $340, since the phone cost me only $50, with a mail-in rebate that I got to send... plus, I saved an extra $200 because I won't have to cancel Sprint. Then the following day I bought a $200 iPod Touch which is like the iPhone except I don't have the phone service or whatnot. I mean, I'm ok with that. I can always wait to get the iPhone until 2011 when I cancel my contract with Sprint and I move to New York, you know? So, that's that. I made a good decision. All in all I saved about $250 plus an extra $35 a month. Wow. I already told Rani that when I finally decide to get either the new iPod Touch (64GB, right now I got the 8GB) or the iPhone in 2011, I would give her the 8GB iPod Touch. I mean, what else am I going to do with it? So, that's that.

Ohh, another thing. With all the changes I made with the phone and whatever... I changed my phone number to a Connecticut area code or whatever. And I totally forgot that Blockbuster has my old number. OMG. So, I called them about 30 minutes ago and the manager-on-duty told me: "Well, you're going to have to wait 'til the store manager is here; she's on vacation for two weeks." WHAT! OMG, I might not even get that job. They probably hired everybody already, I bet.

*Sigh*

Ohh, well.

It'll be until next time.

Bye.
