Free shopping!!! We couldn't ask for more! ... except maybe, if that Gift Certificate came from a "regular" mall we could have bought plenty more stuff than just a pair of outfit for my hubby and a blouse for me ... I shouldn't be complaining, it's free stuff! ^^ A "residue" of the gifts we received on our wedding, 7 mos. ago, I found it tucked inside my wallet all these time and I wanted to do shopping but is always making the mathematics before actually going, but heck! we went yesterday and spent it on clothes!!! Expensive ones! haha clearly not practical, but it's something we will both feel good about, and not like if we bought another appliance or furniture that we'd only use on weekends...this blouse, equivalent to 5 blouses (not signature), will instantly make me feel brand new!!!
Plus, it's a good feeling from time to time to NOT wait in line at the register, shop without much crowd, and the fitting rooms are fab! Glossy, with chandeliers and lighting... I feel like a star. So glamorous in an instant... and oh! was that a celebrity who just walked in??? a young star who appears on TV shows and commercials? She's so pretty... and she shops here, with me ... on the same rack I was on... maybe we have the same taste and style...fabulous!
I was batting my eyelashes while making my picks and handing them over at the assistant, my husband is chuckling ... I have several pieces that I tried on but the hubby says, I may take only one as getting another blouse or a "plum" overcoat is ridiculous as the prices are not too good for our conscience!
Anyway, it was great fun! We wish we could get married every year to get more GCs! It was a day when we wish we'd bump on to someone while heavily laden with our designer carrier bags with our purchases carefully wrapped in tissue paper...we can do this from time to time, it wont hurt to reward ourselves after all that hard work ... I'll get that plum overcoat ... I'll even get that silver Porsche at the showroom we passed by... hubby sees my eyes gleaming ..."yeah, we'll get that Porsche someday when we're too rich to notice" ... how did he know I was thinking that?! ^^

ha ha ha! To funny! Hubs and I just finished using our girst cards a few months ago, from our wedding that was almost 2 years ago!
I didn't tell anyone I was getting married. No gift cards but, equally, a wedding entirely of our own desires! :)
