I actually did this task today....went to walmart to buy and replace flat tires. We had to wait, so we walked around for a bit and realized we had to buy a gift for my daughters birthday.....but then things appeared in the basket that weren't in our budget. I then looked at my husband and said "I have some gift cards on line...let me see what I can do to get them there"....so we put the other items back. They are online by the way and because I have gift cards I wont spend a dime on those items (free shipping and all). How neat!
