The Chronic Consumer

I need another cover for my Amazon Kindle. I’ve been using the cheapo freebie that Amazon included with the 1st Gen models, and even though I’m very gentle with it (I don’t even carry my Kindle around in my backpack very much; it usually just stays right by my bed), the thing has worn out. It’s faux leather or something, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that it didn’t last long.

Now I have a couple of choices for Kindle covers on the Amazon site. There are some “executive” type ones that are made of real leather, but I’m not sure that I want to spend more than $50 for one of those. Most likely, I’ll just end up buying the same one that I have now. After all, it’s only $9.99 and lasts more than a year. Can’t go wrong with that!
