Meat and cheese are essential to my diet, and I have $4 off coupons for both at Fred Meyer. I need new sandals, and I have a 25% off coupon for men's footwear from Fred Meyer. I also would like a new shirt or two for summer, and also have a 25% off coupon for men's clothing from Fred Meyer.
All of these coupons expire July 25th.
I have absolutely nothing to do between this very moment and midnight July 26th, giving myself ample time to go grocery shopping, shoe shopping, and clothes shopping at Fred Meyers, which is only 10 minutes from my apartment.
Yet, I know that there are so many things I COULD be spending my time doing, such as reading, preparing lessons for the upcoming school year, or even exploring my dormant faith in case the world ends this week before my coupons expire. I have a half-tank of gas, so that doesn't preclude me from running errands. It is about 90 degrees today and it will get even hotter later this week, but both my car and Fred Meyer have air conditioning. Also, once I finally do go to the store, I will have food and amenities so there will be no need to leave again for at least several more days.
So, my own motivation and laziness notwithstanding, what shall I do to solve this dilemma of time and space?
Lay on the floor until inspiration strikes.

Did you know that at Fred Meyer you can use nail clippers for free?
I'll use whatever I want at whatever store I choose without paying. It's called free samples, and it's my right as an American.
I regularly reach my grubby hands into bulk licorice candy barrels for my right to my free samples.
I may be visiting Mr. Meyer's fine establishment... 49 hours later.
Don't forget to clip your toenails while you're there.
ugh.
