I'm usually not one to get too excited about materialistic things....okay, maybe I am. But I don't have to have material things to be happy! I swear! I just get overly excited about things that I own sometimes. That's normal, right? Okay, I've had the GIRLIEST day in that regard! TAX-FREE WEEKEND!! Every year, Alabama has a weekend where they take the sales tax off of certain back-to-school items like clothes, electronics, and school supplies. What that means for a college kid is CLOTHES SHOPPING!!! Most of the stores recognize that people will shop more than normal so they also have some great sales. I got some awesome stuff, but with money being tight I really had to make sure that everything was needed. I only did ONE extra purchase and that was: MY ADORABLE SHOES!!!
Don't you just LOVE them?! They were only $20!!! I cannot wait to wear them!
I also got some things I needed like an ironing board and some bras. I honestly don't care who knows that I bought bras because I
finally found some that fit me AND are cute!! That never happens to me! I also got them all on sale. I feel like a champ.
I think my biggest pet peeve is that my brother has to have the name brand clothes. I've gotten over that phase and I hope that now that he sees the value of a dollar [he just got a job] he will move past it. We aren't the kind of family that can just afford everything and yet he really just has to have it all...
Alright, I'm going to walk around in my new shoes a little. I can give myself one day of awesome, right???
