optimum day

a productive day today!

• sort my piles of paper, magazines, and course kits... check
• finish watching lost season 4... check
• complete guatemala album... check
• drop off clothing for alterations... check
• get price adjustment on aritzia coat... check
• redeem sdm points... check

optimum is my favourite rewards program. i've redeemed so many times. sdm changed the program a few years back to make it more difficult to hit the maximum level but the boy and i pooled our points and redeemed $150 in merchandise today! we got:

• super mario bros. for nintendo ds
• twilight by stephenie meyer
• eclipse by stephenie meyer
• 8 packs of upper deck 2007-08 series 1 hockey cards
• deseo for men gift set
• quiksilver for men
• bacon

we could have selected stuff that we actually needed... like cleaning products or more groceries... but it's christmas so we chose a few extra impractical presents for ourselves instead. some serious time wasters for the rest of our holiday. i wonder how long it will take to collect enough points to redeem again.
