I now some people are frugal, but today I saw something that just makes me go “wow.”

I went to the NYC Japan day fair and then walked around the “regular” street fairs. One of the booths was for kettle corn, and they were giving out free samples for all of their varieties of kettle corn. Most New Yorkers take a handful to taste, and most don’t buy. It’s free so why not try some right? Nothing wrong with that.

Well this one old lady comes there with a shopping bag, takes a sample container and starts pouring as much as she can into her shopping bag. Seriously, how cheep do are you to do that? If you like it, buy it. I could not believe that this old lady was that cheap. Of couse the vendor saw her do this and stopped her, but not before she got a decent amount of kettle corn in her bag.

I would just be plain embarrassed if I was caught doing that but I guess some pople have no shame.

I played bowling today with some friends and I rediscovered something that I knew for a while. I really suck at it. I really have to shape up. There are too many things that I suck at. I think I’ll try playing a bit more for practice so my score doesn’t always come in last place.

This has been some of my random ramblings.
