the substitute spender

Every now and then I need a free day. This dollar-spending business can be extremely taxing. So allow me to introduce my first substitute spender — Mackenzie! Mackenzie sent me an email a few days ago sharing photo evidence of one of her dollar purchases and I was like, “Duh, I will blog that.” So here’s the deal: Feel free to let me know about your dollar purchases, and then I can get a free day by blogging your spending successes. Here we go…

Mackenzie and her husband, Beau, spent a very busy day in Middleburg (Virginia) last weekend. If you know Mackenzie, this shouldn’t surprise you, since Middleburg is basically the nation’s horse capital. Anyway, they lunched at the Upper Crust Bakery — turkey on rye for her, grilled chicken and swiss for him — and were delighted to see a selection of baked goods marked at $0.95. Mackenzie chose a cute horsey sugar cookie, partially because she loves sugar cookies, but mostly because it was a horse.
