So I've got to say that while feeling healthy or getting a good grade are well worth the effort they require, a really great fix to playing the Winning At Life game happens like this- You go into a French Connection store in Vegas and fall in love with a red cardigan. But you don't fall in love with the fact that it's $118 and not like, made of gold or anything. So you hang it back up and go buy cheap crap at H&M.
Then you use the internet to your advantage and you watch the sweater.
And some weeks later it drops to $80 (but your internet sixth sense says you can do better).
And then some more weeks later it drops to $40. So you buy it.
But when it arrives it still has the original price tag on it.

I wouldn't have the patience to wait. I would have pulled the trigger at $80...assuming I wanted a size small red cardigan. Well done ma'am
Yes! I totally love that stuff! My latest awesome purchase was a pillow I saw at a back store that was $80 and I found it on the internet for $30! Gotta love the internet. =)
I think I'd have to wear that sweater with the tag on, just to show to world that you're smart and you're size small. Me, I pull the XL tags off my Old Navy clearance wardrobe as soon as I'm in the car so no one will know how big it is or how its only worth $2.95.
You're so good at this life game. So good.
That is pretty amazing, and the price tag on it makes it soo sweet.
we don't even get a photo of the thing????
i know. now i've GOT to see this red sweater.
not bad!
yes, photo please!!
oh. well hopefully this doesn't ruin the story but the thing is, I think I actually need an extra small so I have to send it back. but I will totally take so many pictures after I get the new one!
Ha! I knew it. When I saw the size S I thought no way, Emily needs an extra small.
Why do you keep forgetting that YOU ARE SO SKINNY!
Can't we see what the sweater looks like? I want to see what a $118 sweater looks like.
I will post it in it's glory when it ships back to me in 2-3 weeks...
