Smart shopper or cheap A**
 
I just bought a lovely dress at Goodwill. It's in perfect shape and it was $35,and then I got it half price.


It's a wedding dress.

It will be cleaned of course- and maybe have the straps replaced. But it is beautiful. Beading is perfect- style works for me.

A $17 wedding dress. To go with a Vegas wedding (maybe)

So am I a smart shopper with luck, or a cheap a**?:D

I'm gonna go with smart and lucky. Good on 'ya.

Sounds like a few thousand dollars to spend on a honeymoon (or other sorts of celebrating) :)

Smart shopper i say. Heck the money you saved on the dress you can splurdge and have a nice honeymoon. Vegas is a great place to get married. I did and it was the best thing we ever did er planned on. :)

Smart and lucky. If I thought I could find a wedding dress in my size at Goodwill, I would probably look too.

Like others said, more money for other things.

Smart shopper. Definitely. :snap:

Another vote for smart and darn lucky! I took the niece to be to Davids Bridal on Friday, she dropped a thousand bucks on her dress and accessories...and IMHO her dress isn't one buck prettier than yours!

I say cheap ass.

Seriously: does this mean there are wedding plans in the near future for you?

wolfy999 02-02-2008 09:44 PM

Don't you love when you find a bargain? Especially one like you did! Smart Shopper and good eye!

wendybeth 02-02-2008 10:34 PM

Smart. Why people spend fortunes on a dress that they're only going to wear once is beyond me. I think it's lovely and you will have lots of money to play with.:cheers:

Right on Neph! I say smart shopper and even smarter Bride To Be. Weddings are too overblown anymore. I got married in a $35 Aloha shirt and The Wife was in a $75 Aloha dress. It's about you and what you like, since, ya know, it's your day. If that dress speaks to you, then rock on!

I love you anyway.

Yes- possibly Vegas on our way to Disneyland in March.

Smart shopper is a person who looks for great deals on everything. Cheap a$$ is the Asian mom who brings ziplock bags to a buffet. (I'll call my mom out on this one!)

You're definitely in the "smart shopper" category! Congrats on the excellent find!

blueerica 02-03-2008 11:13 AM

Smart!! The dress is beautiful and an excellent find.

Grats, Nephy!

alphabassettgrrl 02-03-2008 11:27 AM

Excellent find! Who says cheap needs to be opposed to smart??? I say they can go together just fine.

I got married in Vegas. It worked out really well.

Price doesn't really matter if what you found makes you look good and makes you happy.

mollywog 02-03-2008 09:25 PM
