A Good Deal

So, when your life is like 'groundhog day' as my dad would put it, its easy to get excited about things that don't happen on a daily basis.

I was at a cute wholesale home decor store last week called Real Deals. I came across a cute bench that I FELL IN LOVE with. You know that love at first sight feeling when you come across a certain something and you just have to have it? I've been wanting a bench for our front porch for a long time so that Mike and I can sit on the front porch in the summertime, have a glass of lemonade and watch the sun set from behind the house. (Our house is a east facing house). So I took a picture with my phone and went home and begged.

After my husband realized that this would make me very happy, and that if not approved it would make his life very unhappy, I went back to the store the next day to buy it. Much to my surprise it was an extra 30% off the price from the day before! Which was already a smashing deal. So I left that store skipping. I love it when that happens.
