I didn't mean to, but I got a scope!

Well, you guys can tell me if I ought to be as happy as I feel about what I did:
Went into my local gun shop just to shoot the breeze and piddle around looking at stuff, and got to checking out the handgun scopes. They had a Bushnell 2-6x 32 for $186.00. Of course, I liked it, but couldn't afford to get it just now. Then I checked out a Swift 4x32 for $99.00. It seemed to be okay, but I really wasn't there to buy anything anyway. Figured I'd wait a while and save up some money so I could get a scope and rings. Then the guy said, "Wait a minute. I forgot about this used 2x Leupold scope." He handed it to me and other than a little scuff mark where the front ring had held it, it was in good shape. I had seen these on Midway for $299.99, and I was afraid to ask how much, but I did. "I'll let it go for $125.00" I felt I couldn't afford to pass is up! So now I am a proud owner of a Leupold 2x scope for my Ruger Blackhawk .41 mag. (I went ahead and ordered Weaver mounts and rings. They will be here Thursday. I'll be like Bobby Hill--squealing like a girl!)
