a good outcome

I was painfully dragged to the store Gander Mountain yesterday...for those who don't know or don't have one in your area, it's an outdoors store with all sorts of hunting and outdoorsy stuff...blech!! For me, it is PURE torture to go into this store...anyway, I was pleased to have a more exciting experience this time as compared to in the past.

My work/school bag has been dying a slow death and I've been on a (passive) hunt for a new one...not quite finding one that would work for what I need. It needs to be big enough to carry my (thick) school binder, my wallet, phone, iTouch, tube of lotion, pens, sometimes my laptop and my lunch bag-thingee everyday, which is "wide"...

I found THE cutest bag at the store yesterday. This bag in particular. Isn't she soooo pretty!?!?! I wanted it so badly. Then I saw the price tag and decided "no way"....I'm not spending $69 on a bag!!!
So this morning, I got on Ebay and low and behold I found the same brand new bag for more than $25 cheaper! Score!!! It is now en route to my house! And it was perfect timing since Uncle Sam returned the money that was rightfully mine on Friday. Hooray!

I love good outcomes!

I have a zillion random bags but you have me convinced that I should have that one too. :)

Woohoo for finding the bag you wanted for a better price! I love when that happens.
