$2,000 AGAIN.

Today, I'm taking my $2,000 and my first stop is IKEA, where I will buy three, no four, sets of this track lighting, for a total of about $250.

I'm not going to price this stuff out, I'm just going to put it out there. Artist canvasses. Cappuccino maker. Vegan shoes. Replacing all my bulbs with CFLs.

Then, I'm taking the rest and hitting garage and estate sales this weekend, just tooling around and enjoying one of my favorite pasttimes-- sniffing out treasures for a steal.
