Pack Your Bags, Mom!

We're heading to The Running of the Brides.



You camp-out. You dash inside. Grab handfuls upon handfuls of dresses.

According to the website, "when the crowd is let loose, it takes less than 60 seconds for the racks to be stripped bare."

Your friends guard your mound of dresses. People try to steal your dresses. You trade dresses. You could end up with a $9,000 Vera Wang dress for $699.

What was the most expensive wedding gown ever sold at the sale?
One was originally priced at $10,000. At the time, the price for gowns at the Filene’s Basement sale was $199, so some lucky bride got the bargain of a lifetime. Recently a bride-to-be found the original price tag of $12,000 on the gown she got for just $699.

This sounds so crazy - utter mayhem. Yet so fun, because if you find the one, you are getting an unbelievable deal on it!

Eminem

Favorite rapper. He is fabulous. Crafty with his words. I love this lyric from his song, Love The Way You Lie:

"Now you get to watch her leave out the window,
Guest that's why they call it window pane."


Hmm... Now I want to go watch the movie 8 Mile.

"It's just another day between episodes of Jersey Shore."
