Today I went to watch the Kite Runner play, and I actually teared. I was thrown completely off guard by the whole performance, I heard lots of praise for the book, but I never realized how intense it was. I was very proud my hometown played a nice role in the movie.

Hope Station

Yesterday I went to a local thrift store with my friend Vivian. There wasn't anything that really caught my attention; but I ended up buying deux things, so not too bad. I bought a belt, and a vintage sunflower dress! I tried taking pictures while I was in the fitting room, but my memory chip was "locked", I have no idea how I'm suppose to unlock it, but at the same I haven't tried, so yeah wish me luck on that! The grand total of my thrifting was $4. Haha, I'll probably be reselling the dress though. 

Anyways, I found two great sites for people with low budgets but wish to continue shopping!
-Bigwardrobe; a website where you can sell or swap your own items! Although it is mainly based in the UK, there are tons of worldwide users and great steals on there. Even Michelle Obama is on it! 
-Penniless Kid Vintage; It's a blog, it's pretty nifty they show you alternatives for certain "in-styles" that they're selling. I think their sells are based off etsy.

Anyone still shop at Old Navy? I haven't been there in awhile ever since they relocated to a further location, but anyways I found some really cool ways you can get a discount.
Well first click here then it's like a little scavenger hunt, but luckily I have all the answers! Unless you'd like to try it out yourself, if not just presume reading! 

1. Press all of the names on the bottom (for voting for the nicest mannequin legs!) then all the names should turn blue, then a kite should start flying behind the girls click it! Then you get a 50% off one item coupon.
2. Move the hamburger from the black boy's hand and then into the white man's on the far left. (This seems a bit racist..) Then pops out a $25 off $50 coupon.
3. Click on the food on the grill then a subtle set of steam comes off on the food, click that and you get a %40 off one item coupon.
4. A frisbee should appear click it and you get a %20 off one item coupon.

:D ta-da; well I'm out.
