My Mommy Splurge!

         Yesterday I was faced with a huge debate within myself! To buy or not to buy. I had every intent on getting a Vera Bradley diaper bag, which was on sale online for $90. I was happy at the thought of this bag, until my hubby wanted to go mall hopping yesterday (this NEVER happens).
          At the last mall we went to there was a Coach outlet. Can you all see where this is going? I decided I would go in and just look around. I wasn't even considering buying anything, until I saw the most awesome diaper bag ever! It was marked down to $170 instead of the $495 it is in the regular Coach store. My hubby was telling me to get it (since he had just bough sun glasses at the Oakley store) but I was still having a tough time. So, we left and got lunch. All during lunch all I could think about was that bag. I even cut up how much it cost a week if I carried it for 3 years trying to justify it in my head.
      Finally my husband told me, its your money so you have to decide, but I would get it for you. That did it. I ran back to get the bag. An elderly gentleman was looking at the last one so I politely told him it was a diaper bag to which he replied "Oh, our kids are 32 and 46, I just thought it was a really big purse. Here you go." This made me laugh. So I walked away with my beloved diaper bag, promising my hubby that I won't go in a Coach store for at least another year since it seems that every time I do I wind up getting something.
