When I enter a Mall my body instantly gets into super serious shopping mode.
The phrase " Shop till you drop" does not apply to me- rather, when i find a bargain it gives me even MORE energy and i could continue shopping until closing time.
Now, although my hubby does not share the same enthusiasm for shopping as i do he is FANTASTIC to shop with. He can sniff out a bargain as soon as we enter a store, he waits for me outside the changing room, gives constructive feedback about certain outfits, carries all the bags and does so WITHOUT complaint ( how the heck did i get so lucky!!!)
But the best thing about Tuks is that he is very practical, and will tell me when i am going too far. So on our latest shopping escapade he warned that i had already brought enough shoes. Of course i didn't listen because there were just so many bargains i simply couldn't pass them up! It wasn't until this morning that i realised he may have been right. I tried packing my suitcase in preparation for our flight home and ... all my clothes fit nicely
But i don't have any room left for my shoes!!
Uh oh... So- we brought another suitcase and called the airline to pay for an additional peice of luggage. Cha ching!!! A whopping $170 later and i am wondering why my husband still loves me.
So what do YOU think my two blog friends? Did i maybe go a little overboard on the shopping this time OR did i snatch a ton of bargains that will save us thousands of dollars in the year ahead???
Where oh where did you get those cute red shoes from? I want some!! Oh yeah, you saved heaps. It isn't how much you spent but how much you saved!
