Dropped $180 on a teeth whitening kit before my blind date at Cheesecake Factory in Austin

So I matched with this girl on Hinge and we set up a date at the Cheesecake Factory on 6th Street in Austin. I panicked and bought a $180 teeth whitening kit from some Instagram ad three days before, and it made my gums so sore I could barely eat the appetizer. She noticed I was wincing and asked if I was okay, so I had to explain the whole thing. Has anyone else spent dumb money on a blind date prep that totally backfired, and did you just own up to it or lie?
