Last weekend we had a bridal shower for another friend from Middle School (that is two in less than 6 months!) We went up to my family's cabin for a little getaway. When we were in High School we thought it was hilarious to play the silly teenage girl games like Perfect Match, Girl Talk, Sweet Valley High the board game, etc, so Thursday night I was thinking about what games I was going to bring and wished I had Girl Talk - but I really didn't want to spend
$20 to buy a new game. I work close to a DI - so I decided I would stop by the DI on Friday - just to see what they had. I was running late on Friday and was thinking I would skip the DI - there was no way they would have it - but decided to just run in anyways - imagine my surprise when sitting there in the midst of all the games was Girl Talk - in excellent condition - zit stickers and all - and for only $2! I was so excited - I'm sure the lady at the register thought it was a really strange purchase - but I was happy! And we had a blast playing it that night - even if some of the questions were a lot less revealing now then they were back then - it's hard to get excited to hear who someone has a crush on when it is their husband! What treasures have you found at the DI?

Aw, we do have the best friends! I'm sad I couldn't be there for this.
I found a two person umbrella that was green, white, and orange and had the old hardware store Ernst's logo on it. Remember that store? They had free popcorn. mmmm ... popcorn.
I love that game! I wore one of those zit stickers to the grocery store when I was in the 6th grade.
