Taxes and such

Co-worker of mine wanted to get rid of his Alpha for $500. I expressed interest.

Get home, wanted to see if the rest of my Sony Rewards point will cover the zoom lens. To my amazement they actually gave me back my points. I can get a brand new Alpha, no tax or shipping, for $503.... no brainer.

Checked my credit card. I'll get pretty close to my limit if I use it. Decide to wait until I pay off my next statement. 2 more weeks.

Started to look at accessories. Need zoom lens, bag and battery kit, tripod. Again, wait until the next statment ends to cash out some of my Reward Zone certificate to get the zoom lens practically free. Mom can get me a compact flash card for cheap.

Decided to finish up my taxes tonight so I can pay for all of this. Just remember because I don't make much money I can file for free. $680 Federal, $60 State. More then enough for my stuff.... I hope. e-file for free on both. I will get the money in about 2-3 weeks max. Good timing.

So now I wait. The Alpha it is ^_^
