i had to dog watch my neighbors dogs this weekend. it was really easy, and i stayed at her house during the day since she was out of town, and it was peaceful and let me get work done. when she came back, she gave me ! i would have done it for free. she is too nice.
that is a good use of the bucks. i am sure you will pay it forward at some point.
have not done anything with it yet. college semester starts, so i will probably use it to buy one of my textbooks. and yeah, she totally did not have to do that... i feel kind of bad, especially because of how easy it was to do.
