Impulse buy bites ass.

I used up my GC from my 1 year perfect attendance award. The plan was to score a glass for my camera which would be deducted by a fair amount since I can use the GC in tandem with cash or CC. But since G4 only has a Canon shop (and I don't know any malls selling lenses besides VMall, which is not an Ayala Mall so it's out of the picture), I ended up buying a crumpler and a headset (I even threw out a hundred bucks because the GC was all used up and I had to buy a converter for the headset).

Ok, I thought that I don't have to buy new shoes and my 5 year old sneakers is still up to job... (dry job, that is, since they are flooded wet on rainy days)... so it's a fair purchase. No regrets there. BUT...

Then I was scouring the net this morning, which was my daily habit before actually doing some office work, then I found out that there is a shop at GB5 selling Nikon and other 3rd party lenses. I just mumbled 'what the hell!?' to myself and browsed the site and, yeah, they sell Lenses with terms of payment and I can deduct the price using my nifty, newly aqcuired, gone on it's first day on my hands Gift Cheque... but alas, the Fates aren't on my side... And yeah, impulse buying really bites the ass.
