Idea Peepshow

December 8, 2008 by John

Like everyone, I’m watching my money these days. I may have carried it to extremes today.

I went out to grab some soup at One on One, the unusual bike shop/cafe in the North Loop. When I went to put money in the meter, I noticed that the one next to me had 12 minutes still on it.

So I got back in my car and moved it to that meter to save a quarter.

Hmmm. I fear that this sort of behavior could lead to saving one’s toenail clippings and keeping dozens of cats in the house.

    No way, you are not crazy at all. When did it become cool to waste money–even a quarter?

    When you are but one quarter on the right side of bankruptcy, I hope you fondly recall this choice.
