Over the weekend I was trying to shop online for floor mats for my Honda CRV.  Naturally I went into Honda’s official retail store first.  Now seeing that a brand new floor mat would set me back a few hundred dollars, next stop… ebay and amazon.  

I thought there would be substantial savings through them but as it turned out their just a tad under the regular retail price.  A little disappointed I thought of just placing stretched out plastic bags for the meantime.  It’s winter, and the car’s floor is wetter and soon enough, I know it would smell and breed molds and mildew.

My wife saw the plastic bags and blurted out a laugh.  ”You should have asked me!”, she said.  So off we drove to the nearest Dollar Tree store to get cloth mats.  Silly me,  I never imagined that $5 would buy what I need.  There are great mat designs to choose from even.  It’s ultra-cheap and it’s washing machine friendly too.  How’s that for convenience.

Lesson of the day… at least for me!
