"did you hit the lottery?"

October 3rd, 2009 at 06:28 pm

This was the question that my DH asked me last night. He went to feed the dogs and there is half a bag of food and two unopened bags in the pantry. This is quite unusual. We are usually waiting until we are out and then make sure we remember to stop at the store. But since it was on sale, bogo, we have two bags! And I am thinking that I will get 2 more bags before the sale ends!

We also have more food in the house than we have ever had at one time!

Took dd to the consigment shop to get black pants for her band concert tomorrow. When I told her we were going there, she was so upset...like disappointed. But turns out she thought I meant the one that has nothing but run down clothing and nothing good. There is a consigment shop in Ellijay that has really nice clothes. She was impressed. We got her the black pants and a pair of jeans. She only found one pair of jeans that fit, but they said they were putting out more stuff next week. So I will take her there next week sometime. so we got black pants and jeans for Ashlee and I got two shirts for layering and a new purse. Total spent = $34. Sure beats the $49/jeans she wants! And she was happy. Definite difference between consignment and thrift. She is going to gather up her clothes to take there...might get enough credit for her entire wardrobe!

    It must feel awesome to have the necessary things are more. Keep it up!

    When she snubed her nose, it wasn't that the clothes were used, but not worth anything to her. A nicer store doesn't always mean nicer clothes. I hate paying full price for my kids clothes, but usually buy theirs new when mine are thrift store items. What am I thinking?
