I love the Dollar Store...the Polish Dollar Store



Ladies and Gentleman,


I have officially made the greatest purchase of all time, and it cost me about $.70. Today I went into town with my mom for my daily walk (yes, I realize, like a dog) and we stopped by what can only be described as a Polish dollar store. The walls are line with mostly useless crap, and it being Easter season, a trillion shitty Easter decorations. In any case, they have some decent photo albums, and my mom needed a couple, so we grabbed those and as I turn around I see one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. A purse, about 14X10, kind of rectangular, with this on both sides:



And one on side, which I'm assuming is the side that should be turned to the viewer, the cat has a diamond necklace on, made of little plastic rhinestines glued around the cat's neck, onto the fabric.

At first I couldn't believe what I was looking at, and then I busted out laughing. I laughed so hard I cried. Somehow, the salesgirls in the store didn't really think that it was as funny as I did. I think they thought there was something wrong with me, because the cashier didn't even crack a smile when I made a comment something like "This is great!" She just looked at me and flatly said "Yeah.." ANYWAY, then, I saw that it was on sale, and it cost me something around, like I said before, $.70!!!!

I am super excited about this purchase, and can't wait to wear my new bag proudly around Chicago. I'll be sure to post a photo of the actual bag when I get home and can hook my camera up to the computer.

Oh, and if you want one, let me know. You know you totally want one.

  1. Actually, I DO want one. You know I do. If they have any other priceless gems, feel free to act on my behalf, I will gladly reimburse you.
