My husband will tell you that I’m a bit of a penny-pincher at times. My wallet and I prefer to think of it as maintaining a mutually healthy relationship. I won’t take all of Wally’s  cash, and he won’t tell when I splurge on underwear that costs $10+ a pair.  It’s a win-win, to be honest.

So when I thought about BlogHer10 versus BlogHer@Home’10, naturally, I considered Wally’s point of view. He make’s a very persuasive case. Just look at his side by side comparison!

Hmmm….that’s a might strong start Wally! What else ya got?

Travel from my front door to New York: $540 (and that’s economy class, for chrissake. Wally wouldn’t even let me see first class)

Travel from my front door to my couch: $0 (also? no TSA agents or risk of being seated near someone obnoxious)

Staying at the Hilton New York for 3 nights: $1,143.08 (with roommate? $571.14)

Staying at my house for 3 nights: $0 (but the roommate is mandatory (but I’m allowed to get my freak on with him, so…) )

Cute Little Black Dress For Parties and Such: $100

Okay, Wally, I’m nearly convinced, but can you seal the deal for me?
