It was hard enough to spend $359 for my K2, but I didn't realize how expensive having it would be - what with the additional cost of skins, leather covers, book stands, rice makers, recipe software...  |

LOL that is so true and doesn't even count additional spending on books since in many cases -- not all -- the number of books read increases after a Kindle purchase (although I refuse to view that as bad). It took me a while after I first got my K2 to see the fruits of my spending labor, but I now have a nice selection of covers and lights. I've been able to resist some of the other items listed....so far  |

LOL Don't forget the cost off all the books you buy when you get hooked on a series for which you got a book free! EllenR |

Do you have a dog or cat yet? You need a furbaby to sit in your lap or at your side while you read your Kindle.

I do indeed have a furry little doggie who loves to sit on my lap while I read.
Whew. At least I have that covered!

I had to go to Macy's today and went past the kitchen wares department. Their central display table must have been set up by someone from KB -- the only items on it were a couple of Keurig coffee makers and a couple of red Kitchen Aid mixers! So I got to check both of those out to see what all the fuss is about. My current unexpected Kindle cost is a custom Borsa Bella bag.... for my camera.  I was so happy with the ones Melissa made for my K2 that I've just ordered the gadget bag to keep my camera scratch-free when it's in my purse. Pre-Kindle I would have just stuck it in a Ziploc! |

It's true - they are like expensive little children. Gotta have clothes! Designer ones at that. So Arwen has an Oberon, a DecalGirl
Skin, and this week a Vera Bradley bag will arrive. Now she's got me looking at those Baba Studio bags....
