bargains & evil vacuums

Ben & I went shopping this afternoon, despite the crazy pre-Christmas crowds. Oh and the crowds were definitely crazy;) Despite the crowds we managed to get me two winter hats (I definitely needed a hat, the second is just because I couldn’t decide which was cuter). Plus we managed to pick up a suitcase for me. The funny part about the suitcase is that we looked a lot of places for one, and at the last store we found one that didn’t have any tags on it. So we looked to see if there was another like it and there wasn’t so after wandering around we finally got some assistance from a store clerk. Well the store clerk had no idea how much it was so after a little bargaining I managed to get the suitcase for definitely less than it probably would have been with the tags on it. Definitely a nice deal (and I don’t feel bad about getting it for less, since we had such a terrible time getting any service at all to begin with).

Right now Axel is trying to kill the vacuum cleaner. He really hates it, and lets us know every time that we have to vacuum by attacking the vacuum afterwards. And I am not joking, he really does attack it. He stands there and will use his front paw to strike at it with his claws out. If I didn’t feel so bad about how much he hates it, it almost would be cute that he trys to attack it…
