Why not take a few hours off and instead of watching a movie, see if you can't sew your own simple sporran. Make it brown, but dye one part of it ( the flap?) black. You'll have something that you made and you'll save money to put into it. And it will match everything.
Hm, I have some nice black shoes that I wear with my suits, but I prefer my ox blood colored loafers when I am not "dressed up"... I like that color because it pretty much goes with everything! I may yet try making my own, but I want to buy at least one that is semi-nice so if I do dress up that it looks appropriate (my leather working skills aren't exactly the best)...

I am currently looking at some of Janet Eagleton's sporrans, and I'm waiting to get some prices back from her. Hopefully I can find something within the budget (the girl friend probably won't understand if I spend the money for her Christmas present on a sporran )
