I have wanted rainboots for over a year! On rainy days, everybody always looked so cute wearing their rain boots and skinny jeans. Then there was me, dredging through, jeans wet to the knees.
The thing is that I am a bargain shopper. I refused to just go out and send $30-$60 on RUBBER RAINBOOTS. Not happening. One time, I saw them marked down on clearance for $12.99 at TJMaxx but for some reason didn't buy them...bad decision making clearly!
From that day on, $12.99 became my goal price. Well, almost 9 months had passed, the rainy season almost over, and I was still soaking my jeans.
Until...
We were wasting time walking through a store and there sat ONE pair of rain boots about my size sitting on the clearance rack! P told me to go look just to see if, by any slight chance, they were my size and price.
Size: CHECK
Price: $9.99
Enter the happy dance!!! I was SO EXCITED! I had waited so long and FINALLY I was finally getting my rainboots! WOOHOO!
So, today is the first rainy day since then and I am SO excited to be rocking my super cute, polka-dotted rainboots! Who knew, something so simple could make me so excited...does that mean I need to get out more?

On another note, we are signing all of paper work to put our house up on the market today. Scary scary! I'm anxious to get a bunch of contractors into the new house to give us a final number of what we are looking at in renovations...I'm ready to get this thing started! Definitely feeling the anxiety of the calm before the storm.
Lol, we have a pair of happy polka dot boots too... look like the same ones!
ReplyDeleteI am exactly the same way. I have a wishlist a mile long but won't buy anything until I hit my specified "price point"! haha Love those boots and can't wait to hear more about the house renos. That is right up my alley.
