List Day: Purchases On This Day in History

• August 5, 2003: $60.85 TicketMaster, for a ticket to see Aerosmith and KISS perform at the Nissan Pavilion and then sit in a car in the parking lot for seven hours afterwards.


• August 5, 2004: $57.46 EBGames, for DOOM 3, a PC game which was creepy but ultimately unsatisfying becaus space marines are incapable of working a flashlight and a gun at the same time.


• August 5, 2006: $132.42 Macy's, for unknown goods. I am not a Macy's shopper and have no idea what I bought, so I'll presume this was for Kathy and Chris' wedding registry.


• August 5, 2008: $3.18 Popeyes, for a two-piece meal, dark meat / mild, with fries, no drink. The current price of this meal is $5.72.


• August 5, 2009: $429.23 Allstate, for renewing my car insurance. I interact face-to-face with Allstate so rarely that my primary agent is still across the street from the apartment I lived in in Centreville in 2003.


• August 5, 2012: $9.03 Wawa, for milkshakes along Route 17 on the way home from our OBX trip with the Smiths.


• August 5, 2013: $14.99 Steam, for the PC game, Swapper, which I played for about 56 minutes.


• August 5, 2015: $24.78 Amazon.com, for the new season of Orphan Black on DVD.
