Snow Owes me $35.00

Because I recently moved from an apartment with snow removal to a house without, I had to invest in a snow shovel. Additionally, I also had to buy 60 pounds of rock salt ice melter stuff, which was a joy to lug to my car, let me tell you. That means the desire to be able to meet my kids' bus at the curb compounded by snow cost me about $35.00 this week.

If snow hadn't come to collect, that money could've grown up to be:

• 140 cans of Mountain Dew

• 105 wooden kitchen utensils or 120 coffee mugs from IKEA
