Banana Republic Meets Merle Haggard

Before I start my story, I probably should give a disclaimer. Warning: When shopping at Goodwill, being somewhat like the box of chocolates in Forrest Gump, "you never know what you're going to get." I enjoy going to Goodwill stores because, although I'm not a hunter, the fun truly is in the hunt.

Today, while waiting for one of the twins to get out of guitar lessons, I dropped in my local store. I found this great shirt for my friend Kim, still with the original Banana Republic tags! The original tag boasted a whopping $58, but Kim will wear it proudly for a mere $4.29. :)

Remember how we talked about this before and how loads of things in there are brand-spanking-new with tags still on them? Yeah, this was one of those times.

Although when I said, "you never know what you're going to get", I was talking primarily about while shopping. However, I saw something else interesting, while waiting to check out, but wasn't in the market for one... So dude in front of me in line honestly believes he's Merle Haggard crossed with either Waylon or Willie, but either way, homey's pony was flowin'. My new friend evidently watched the weather this morning & knew the temps would get smokin' hot, so he wore his jeans with holes all over them. I'm not hatin', I'm just sayin' if you're gonna wear your holy jeans, just don't go commando up underneath 'em. I'm certain there's a dangling participle in there somewhere, and I'm not talking at all about sentence structure... :)

So get yourselves over to your Goodwill, only avert your eyes, if you hear someone crooning Mama Tried. There ain't no tellin' what you'll see! Have fun, laugh some, and save on, friends! :)
