Who needs money anyway?

I'm a member of a book club. I haven't bought anything from them for ages (the last purchase being The Darwin Awards), but this month the selection was the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I've been wanting to reread them, preferably finishing the first before the movie. I've also never actually owned a copy. The ones I read in high school were my stepfather's.

But, being broke, I set aside the idea of having my own copies. I deleted the informational email from the book club telling me about them. I figured I'd have to scrape up the money to buy one at a time locally.

Then I went to the book club web page just to look at them.

Ah, the perils of buy-now/pay-later. They're now happily on their way to my doorstep.
