Behaving on Amazon.com

One of Amazon's downsides is its "related items" function which encourages the shopper to spend more than s/he wanted to on stuff s/he didn't need. I'm proud to say I declined all the related items and checked out with only the thing I intended to buy. Said item was $10 cheaper than it had been on Amazon earlier this week and cheaper than at any reputable online dealer, including B&N with my member discount there.

Sweet small victories.

Remaining to purchase:
Mom
Friend
Grandma
Brother's Girlfriend

Taken care of:
2 friends
Brother

Total: $90
