An expensive trip...

So I took a road trip to Calgary today to deliver a birthday gift to my dad, and also to do some shopping of my own. My main goal was to find myself a good leather coat. (I've looked all over Lethbridge and there's nothing.) I got a great deal on a winter coat at the Danier store in Chinook Centre. It was more than 50% off. It's a 3/4 length with a removable liner. It's probably not going to be cold enough this season for me to leave the liner in, so I've removed it and I'll start wearing it right away. (Since I'm not really in the mood to wear my Oilers coat anymore these days.) There was also another one I was considering there as well, and I almost decided to get both of them, but the other one didn't have a fully removable liner, and I figured I wouldn't wear it at all for at least 8 more months, so I settled for just the one I figured I'd get the most use out of.
I got such a good deal on the coat, I went and bought a nice $110 pair of shoes from FeetFirst. Then I spent more money on some shirts and socks from Old Navy, and a couple DVDs at HMV. What a day! (And what a drain on the wallet.)
