Bewitched, Bewildered and Bedazzled!

About six months ago the Flock Warden and I were in bed watching Creative Juice (well, I was watching he was reading something chicken or science related, I'm sure) and I saw them use a Bedazzler. "Will you look at that, I haven't seen one of those in 30 years!" I think his response was something like "uh huh".   I'm going to look for one the next time I go garage sale-ing!"  More 'uh huhs'. 
Fast forward a few months to the height of garage sale season.  There were so many neighborhood sales that weekend that I had to actually choose which ones to go to--not enough hours in the day to cover them all, which I would normally try to do.  The first sale I get out at, I see it.  Still in the box, an original from 30 years ago (just look at the nails on the cover!)  My heart starts beating faster.  I immediately pick it up just in case someone else dreams of studding everything in their house.  The nice owner comes over and tells me that she's had it forever thinks she used it maybe once.  All the parts and pieces are intact.  I hold my breath waiting for the price.  A dollar she tells me, A DOLLAR!! 

I come home and spend the next few weeks searching for the rhinestones and studs everywhere.  I mention to my mom that I can't locate them anywhere.  The next day she sends me the link to Joanns online with a whole assortment of stones and studs!  How does she do that?  The packages are about $6, but with a coupon or sale I know I can do better.  So I wait. And wait.  Now I'm stalking them online.  The go on sale for $4. Perfect! I'll order them now. Checkout says  $6 for shipping. NO WAY I am paying more for shipping than the actual stones!  More stalking (and sulking) until Cyber Monday comes along.  Surely they will have free shipping now.  The stones are on sale for $3.19, a steal!  Back to checkout, still $6!  Now I'm getting crazy.  Okay, I'll Google search for a coupon code.  Sure enough Coupon Cabin has one for free shipping, and it works!  Of course, at that price I had to buy two!

Now I just have to decide what to Bedazzle first. Maybe the Flock Warden would like me to Bedazzle his name on that nice canvas fishing gear bag I gave him for his birthday.  Hmm.
