Yes thats right Im 25 and drive a mini-van!

I am 25 years old and I drive a mini-van (my husband is rolling his eyes)! After many arguments (by the way that I won) over trading cars, my husband finally broke down and got me a 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan! We decided that we needed the extra room in a vehicle but he wanted a Tahoe and I wanted a van. After crunching many numbers, he finally came to the realization that once again I was right. The van would have a cheaper payment, more room, and better gas mileage. Oh how I love my van! It is so easy to get Ben in and out of bc all i have to do to open a door is to press a button. We have DVD players in each headrest which I hope will be a great help on our haul to Hilton Head this summer. Also, there is so much room to carry stuff. After the consignment sale in Union City last week, I was hauling 4 girls, 3 laundry baskets full of clothes, a huge lego table and 2 storage organizers. (sorry the pic was taken with my junkie phone).

My Obession~ Consignment Sales

Hey everybody!!
Ok so I admit it, Im a girl and I love to shop!! Imagine that, right?? But I would rather buy for my son or my husband than myself. So, in my eyes that makes my addiction to shopping ok. I also am addicted to the thrill of the hunt for a "good buy." Thats the reason that I love to go to consignment sales. Last week, some friends an I went to one in Union City, TN. They all have little girls so of course they found alot more stuff than I did (cute boy stuff is hard to come by). But my "good buy" that made it all worth while was I found Ben one of those swim suits with the floatation thing built in it. I had been looking at them online (bc we are going to Hilton Head this summer so he needs one) and they were going to be around $30 but I got mine for only $4! WOO WHoo Go ME!

Next Monday, I will be going to one that is about 45 min away in Murray, KY. The pictures on their site( http://www.kyweeruns.com/) look like its going to be a huge sale! I cant wait!!! Then the next Saturday, my friends and I are going to one at Jackson Christian School in Jackson, TN. This one I have been to b4 and was very impressed. After buying all the bargains I can at these 2 sales, I guess I will have to wait till early fall for my next bargain hunting extravaganza but until then I will continue to go to Goodwill to feed my addiction!
