I didn't grow up as Royalty. I grew up where asking for a sucker at the store was taboo. If I wanted anything I'd have to put it on my birthday list, or Christmas list- which ever came first. By the age of eight I knew where every generic brand of every product was on the shelf. I found that to make my mom proud of me, I would go around finding the best deals, values and sales in the store. To get anything that I didn't really NEED, I'd have to prove to my mother that it was -without a doubt- an amazing deal and worth her money. Well, I got pretty good at it, even though most the time we just didn't have the money. Now, I live in the Twin Cities and attend a private University. Shopping here is a leisure activity instead of a seasonal ordeal like it use to be. All my friends here have a higher standard of living that at times is hard to keep up with. I guess I'll have to thank my mother for giving me the training to be able to keep up and live like royalty. ;)
It was Worth the Wait.

Normally here in Florida, the winter months are prime garage sale-ing
months, but its been so cold that nobody has had sales. This past Saturday
was sunny ...
