In 2010 part of my health benefits was a health care savings account thing, where the company took out $15 from each paycheck and put it into a separate account accessible by a specific credit card. The result of this was a few hundred dollars to take care of various medical/health expenses during the year. The downside of this is, if you don't use the money by the end of the year, you lose it!! So guess who went shopping on Friday!
I had roughly $50 left in the account after receiving all my vaccines and other various medical expenses throughout the year. So I went to Target and stocked up on various items that I could imagine needing while traveling. The most abundant item purchased.... Immodium!!! Accompanying that is some pepto bismal tablets, aleve, cold pills, congestion pills, neosporin and bandaids. So the thing I'm having to think about now is, do I still take the first aid kit like i was first thinking about. You know, the kind you keep at home or in your car for just about every possible emergency. Or do I just take my medicine and bandaids and hope for the best?
