Shimano R315 heat moldable shoes, their top of the line. They'll be at the LBS Friday or Monday, and I'll get them heat/vacuum molded. Super excited, my current shoes are too big, they'll get moved to winter duty when I'm wearing wool socks.

Decided to pick up the expensive but awesome alternative to a floor pump...a N2 Tank. 60fc tank with regulator. Makes inflation fantastic. Too much $$$, but F it.
And a selle SMP Pro saddle.

Park Tools Multi-tool.
Before that it was a KMC chain and some bullhorn bars.

Conti Gatorskin. Cost? $0.
I first noticed some light dry-rot cracking between the tread and the sidewall on my front tire, so I brought it to the LBS that was about 1/8 mile away from where I was when I noticed it. The mechanic said that looked to be alright, but he then noticed a sidewall bulge about 4" away from the valve. Threads were visibly torn, so that was the end of that tire. I was going to buy a cheap tire to tide me over until I could afford a set of Conti GP4000s's, but the mechanic said he would look in storage for a used tire for me. He found a folding Conti Gatorskin with very little wear on it (MAYBE 200 miles worth) in a 700x23c (what the torn tire was). He said "here you go. It's yours." So I got a nearly new condition Gatorskin for $0. They normally run $60 iirc, so I got a great deal! I'll head back to the shop when I can afford a matching tire to buy one for the rear. I'll probably switch the current one to the rear and put the new one on the front.
I made sure to destroy the old tire before they threw it out, so nobody could reuse it and get injured due to the sidewall damage. I cut the beads in two different places.
FWIW, the tire had about 1300 miles on it and wasn't showing a terrible amount of wear.
