The Government Is Blinding Me

We spent this last weekend making a list of the things we could do with our government “stimulus” rebate. We could pay off a bill or two, take a small vacation, get some dental work done, or purchase some things for the house that would make it much more comfortable in the summer. I spent the better part of Sunday night looking at discount window blinds, trying to decide which would look best in our front windows, and which ones would look best in the basement.

Last year we purchased a set of Custom Blinds Faux Wood which were perfect in our living room. They work great when we’re trying to watch a movie or one of our favorite shows. We simply lower the blind a bit and it reduces the glare on the big screen television. You have to love that. I know I do.

One of the benefits of buying cheap blinds with our stimulus check is that we would have enough money left over to purchase something else as well. Once the windows are taken care of though, I know the air conditioning bill will be a lot less this summer and we’ll save even more money. Now I just have to check with Gidget and see which ones she likes best.
