I also picked up new glasses this week, but decided not to bother with the ins and outs of them. How ridiculous is it that it is cheaper to buy new than to get new lenses put in old frames? Ditto, that it's more expensive to repair boots than buy a new pair.
A few more ins than strictly necessary this week, but it's back to work tomorrow so my op-shopping time will be limited. I'll also be living back at my place during the week, so expect more culling to happen. The front room is chokka with yarn looking for a new home, so I'll address that tomorrow and Wednesday.

It is ridiculous that ... it's cheaper to buy a new printer than to have the cartridges for the "old" one refilled! (I refill anyway)
