Shopaholic takes Menlo Park

This article essentially replicates my entire experience working at a shoe store in Menlo Park last fall. Hence my utter joy and gratitude at getting a job where I can't buy anything or get anything "on discount."

...Instead, I sit at my computer playing with my Budgets and Savings Goals on mint.com like Scrooge McDuck when he jumps into his piles of money. My piles are just a tad more metaphorical. And smaller.
