Booking Through Thursday: Windfall

Booking Through ThursdayCheck Spelling

Yesterday, April 15th, was Tax Day here in the U.S., which means lots of lucky people will get refunds of over-paid taxes.

Whether you’re one of them or not, what would you spend an unexpected windfall on? Say … $50? How about $500?

(And, this is a reading meme, so by rights the answer should be book-related, but hey, feel free to go wild and splurge on anything you like.)

I know a few people around me spend some of their money on lottery and other stuff like that, call me a practical person but I hardly buy lottery tickets since I don't have much luck when this is concerned. However, I did win a few books on several occasions so I think my luck isn't that bad.

Anyway, if I have an extra of $50, I would most likely spend them on books. However, I will still spend it on books if I have $500, but I will set aside some money for buying books and clothings for my daughters, and give everyone in the family a treat at a nice restaurant. Oh, wait a minute, I think I need another bookshelf for my new stack of books so hopefully I will have enough to cover that as well.

What about you? How would you spend your $500?
