We got a Dyson, ya'll!!

So, Chase and I wanted a Dyson. I don't know if you've noticed, but they're not giving those away.... so we registered for one on our wedding registry. You know, in case like, ten families wanted to go in together to get us something.

Well, I mentioned to my boss one day that we'd registered for this expensive item that we weren't going to get, but here's hoping. A few days later, she drops by and says that there are two Dysons at the Goodwill on Capital Circle. They'll be half price on Wednesday. That was like, six days away.

I forget all about it till I'm at the barn, on the Wednesday and I see them! At half price! It's like, the end of the day and they're still there! Holy cow! I want one. Soooooo bad. But what kind of condition is it in? Does it even run? If I buy it, I can't bring it back. So it'd better be PRISTINE. I call Chase and tell him to get his buns over here and we'd better take a look at them. We start getting into the box and quickly realize that it has NEVER been opened much less used. We plug it in anyway and it works perfectly.

So we buy two of them.

Ha!

One for us and one for Chase's parents. Who are going to be sooooo pleased. We brought it in my parent's house tonight and took it for a test spin and it picked up soooo much stuff. I am beyond stoked. Beyond excited.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to the fifth member of the Porter-Keen clan: Mike Tyson the Dyson! It's a beast of a vacuum cleaner.


I haven't been this excited about an inanimate object since I bought a pair of leopard print heals for $12. Besides food, I wonder what was the last thing was I bought at full price?
