(Actually from a few weeks ago, but whatevs) Made the tough decision NOT to clear room on my credit card I used for the ticket lottery...I didn't get a limit increase (my limit is small to begin with, about $1400, and I asked for it to be raised to $2000), and I just don't have the money right now. ...

LOL not happening. I can't be arsed. I'll bring a small dust pan.

Believe it or not, some of us prefer film. And not even in roll form, I prefer the giant pain-in-the-ass sheets.

I'm in MN, my husband and I are attending for the first time this year.

Because tater tots, that's why.

Target is really good about marking down their merchandise at the end of each season. You missed the battery powered strings of lights, but winter clothes (both men's and women's) are already 50% off. You can wait for 75% off and really stretch the hell out of that $100 card. Amazingly, the stuff t...

Yeah, they probably don't have any of the solar LED Christmas lights left. Our Target doesn't sell booze either. Socks. A coffee press or camp wattle kettle. Plastic totes or bins, maybe a small rug for just outside your tent door. Socks are always needed. A camp kettle is a good idea, too. I think...

I have a $100 Target gift card, and I want to use it for Burning Man supplies. I already have a tent, camp chairs, air mattress and pump, and a cooler. What would YOU buy? Hi Nellie! Buy a shade structure. It's a necessary item.Depending on how big your vehicle will be, you can buy shade big enough...

booze Unfortunately in Minnesota, you can't buy alcohol at stores like Target and Walmart (except for the low-percent type, which doesn't qualify as real booze as far as I'm concerned). taco flavored Doritos, then.

What would YOU buy?

Yesterday: Registered for tickets! I'm hoping for low tier tickets, but really, I'll be fucking over the moon no matter how much I'm charged.

Today: Hunting online to find the cheapest supply of Emergen-C I can.

So I can hurt him.

Search army surplus stores and thrift shops, and buy your own tent. One less thing to worry about.
