I just bid on something on eBay. Someone is selling 2 U2 concert DVDs for $0.99 plus $4.50 shipping and handling. I have memorized this price because it is such a good deal. But I did this so spontaneously! I will tell you about the 2 DVDs I will get should I win the auction, and then you will see why I am SO excited.
The first one is called "U2 Vertigo Tour 2005: Live from Chicago" and it seems wonderful. I looked it up on Barnes & Noble's website. The list price there is $19.99! See?! I'm getting a good deal already! I read the set list. There are only 3 songs on it that I don't have on my iTunes library. Pretty exciting, huh? And all the songs on it that I do have, I absolutely love. So! Excitement!

The second one is called "Rattle and Hum" and it's actually a documentary of the tour to promote The Joshua Tree ... which you know is an album I love very much. I read all about this documentary in U2 By U2, which made me really really really want it. So I really hope I win this auction. Its list price for "Rattle and Hum" on Barnes & Noble's website is $9.99 ... so these DVDs are really worth over $30 ... you know, with tax and all. And I don't have $30. I don't even technically have $0.99 plus $4.50 shipping and handling. But I'm managing.

The auction ends in just under 15 hours. It's pretty nerve wracking. Oh, eBay ... so fun, yet so dangerous. Money! It's Crazy.
