I don't know...but if you are gonna grow something, you may as well do it right.

Exactly, that's what the free tent/tarps are for. Save the money for all the other stuff.
And up here in/near Seattle your likely to find a pound or more comes with the free tent/tarp.
Not something you'd ever use yourself, but it can easily fund more equipment.

I bought myself a portable air conditioner. It rolls on casters and the exhaust goes in the window.

Easier to mount and unmount than traditional window unit and can be humidifier as well.

I bought it refurbished and financed it but it's my prize possession. When the central ac of my house died and it was 100 outside I was glad to have it.

It's made by Lg, has a remote, I can't say enough good things about it.

Refurbished and financed? I see tons of brand new 12,000 BTU units for $250 or less.
I'm extremely poor and still can't imagine needing to finance a $150-200 item.

My dad bought a Wynter (or some stupid name, y instead of i) 14,000 BTU for $300 new off Amazon.
It needed a little modification but it works great. We better separated the dual hoses (so it wasn't cycling it's own hot air) and mildly insulated them, and modified it's output (removed stupid plastic crap that basically forced air straight up) to better direct airflow straight out.

I didn't have to finance it, but I had a free financing offer so I used it. Basically I paid not much for it and the financing made it an easy purchase is what I meant.

I am going to look into those mods on YouTube.

don't say a car or a house or your education...not in the mood for smart alec remarks tonight.

What is the nicest thing you bought for yourself?

Had an infected tooth extracted, one of the nicest and smartest things I ever did.
I had an earache for a couple days and did not go to the Doctors, then on New Years weekend
it got bad... I realized it was a toothache, and Jan 2nd called for an Emergency Dentist appt.

The Dentist took a look and out loud said Oh My God, you must have been in horrible pain for the last few days,
you should have gone to the emergency room. DUH

Told me no way can I pull this out, you need to see an oral surgeon, here is a prescription for antibiotics for 10 days,
call you favorite Oral Surgeon.

I was really glad to get that removed, it was worth way more money than it cost.
The Oral Surgeon after he extracted it, said this could have killed you, if you had ignored it any longer.

Your Health is worth much more than any trivial item you could ever purchase.

Just bought a Weber Genesis 2 today. Was going to buy a cheap grill and left with $800 less. I don't understand how this happened...

Looks like Whole Foods sells them, I'll have to check it out ASAP.
I got 35 packs of this from Target today...

http://seafarepacific.com/our-products/grocery-sport-pouches/smoked-albacore-sport-pouch/

They were on clearance for $2.50 for a 3oz pack. They're similar in concept to the American Tuna product, and quite good. I was only gonna get a couple packs, but being on clearance spooked me, so I got the rest of what's on the shelf. Target was only place I knew to get them in person. Also, it keeps a long time, and the price was right, so why not?

They also have smoked salmon on clearance, and it's good also, but it was twice as much per pouch. I can get salmon equally as good around jul from BigLots, and it's cheaper, but in one big piece. I usually get a couple boxes then.

There's another Target near Wegmans, where I'm going tomorrow, and I might stop in to see if they have the tuna on clearance also, and buy them out. I take fish to work for lunch most days, so it goes quickish. It looks like a ridiculous amount sitting around the house, but the stocks drop fast.

edit:
Got the last six packs at the other Target. I'll be stocked up for awhile. I also got a can of American Tuna from Wegmans. What I think I'm gonna do is order 12packs directly from the company. I'll be taking a gamble on the flavored varieties, which I haven't had, but I'm sure they're as good as the main product. $60-$72/12 depending on variety, and free shipping.
