Austin the Hero!!

Every year, one of my favorite stores, Country Manor, has a Christmas Open House. This is where they begin selling their christmas items, and they have this huge sale thing. What you do is you pick out all your crap, then you go to the counter and pick a jingle bell. Inside the bell there is a paper with a discount of anything from 10% all the way to 100%. So it is a gamble. They also have hot wassail, and cinnamon rolls, and cookies for all the guests. I LOVE going to this, and I go every year.
Well, since this year I have a new tree that is much bigger than my other one, I definetly needed to stock up on stuff for it while I was there. So this morning at 10 am sharp so as not to miss out on the good stuff, the kids, Cassie and I went to Country Manor. You will think I am crazy, but I got to the counter with $419 worth of stuff. I let Austin pick a bell, hoping it would be at least 20% off the bill, but it was 50% off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so happy , and Austin felt special because he "picked an awesome bell" he kept saying with the HUGEST smile on his face. He really had no idea what picking the bell meant, but he could tell it was awesome by our reactions! It made my day!!! Thanks to Austin, I saved a good $200!!!!!!! Thanks Frosty Austy!
