Exercise - Day 2

Erm,

Look i bought a second hand spin bike on Monday night from a woman who used it 5 times and realised she had a back problem, myself and Ryan went to pick it up in the bakkie, the price was incredible, she bought it for R4000, advertised it for R2600, i offered her R2000 cash by email to take it straight away and she agreed by reply email within 40 seconds, it was agreed i would go to her house around 6pm and pick it up, meanwhile i saw another used spin bike for sale an Avalance, white, used 15 times, owner needs to make space (the picture was the usual cliche; bike in the bedroom, bought to be used but ends up as a clothes horse) she was asking R2900, i emailed the seller at 5.15pm and offered her R2000 cash i would pick up that night but she had to reply before 6pm because at that time i would be buying the first option, she mailed me back at like 1 minute past 6pm,

'yes, my husband says that is ok'.

Unfortunately at 6pm i was knocking on the previous sellers door, inspecting the bike which is in tip top condition and slapping 10 of the crispest 200 hundred rand notes into her greedy palm.

Just goes to show that with the economy the way it is today it is possible to knock anyone down upto 40% from asking price, i was quite pleased with myself, however i will get on to the spin bike in more detail later because...

...it is still in the back of my bakkie waiting to be unloaded.

So on that note yesterdays exercise amounted to:

Thinking about unloading the spin bike from the bakkie and putting it into the garage, in fact i even went as far as burning calories by talking about unloading the spin bike and putting it into the garage...

still a bum...
