Extra $15 end of year, maxed the 401K
« on: December 28, 2016, 08:12:11 AM »
Not wanting to miss ANY of the agency matching on my 401K (and because I have to enter whole dollars on the amount I want withheld) my end of year paycheck is $15 more than normal AND I maxed contributions for the year.

The $15 will pay for most of the food chopper I bought yesterday.

Nope.  Got lots of knives.  Chopper so I can finely chop stuff (I like ham salad and the like finely chopped to the point of being spreadable.)./

I looked at the $40 one but they were out of stock so I bought the $19.99 one (I really wanted the $15 one but they were out of stock).

I got it at Target.  It is red.  Twin blades (sounds like a razor doesn't it).

Anyway, as my time has value, I don't want to spend hours chopping into a pate' or having to get stiches.

I likes it spreadable, on some hearty bread.  MUCH less expensive than store bought.

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
