Booking Through Thursday: Windfall

Today Booking through Thursday asks:


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.)

Well as a book person if I was given a windfall of $50 I would simply take myself out to a nice meal, and some books. However if I got $500 I can think of other things to pay off. The first thing I would do is pay some bills ahead of time. It’s always a nice feeling to know your bills are already taken care of. Now after I did that, I would probably invest in some new book shelves. I would also get a few more books for those shelves. For me books are a stress relief so that is a good thing to get when you have some money. I would also just put some away for when it was needed.
