So I happened to be in the downtown Cobourg area and stopped into beyond the blue box, which is a depo that accepts then sells used goods. Everything ends up at this place, anything ranging from clothing to electronics, to cameras, to baby stuff.
I could not believe my eyes when I just about to exit the store, there were a pair of work boots sticking out from a very large pile of stuffed animals. I recognized these work boots. So I geta little closer so I could see even better and there he was a two and a half foot Bob the Builder, instantly I feel like a great mommy, and I just knew that very soon I’d be going home to greet my husband and the happiest kid in Canada, when he saw what mommy has come home with!
Sure enough I peek around the corner with Bob’s head and the greatest squeel in the whole world can be heard filling up the apartment. “BOB!!!!!!!!!!” He was oh so happy! He was jumping all around, screaming in delight, making me just feel the best mommy ever who has absolutely no problem at all conquering the world for my little guy! If only I could feel this way all the time, unfortunately it takes more than Bob the builder to make my boss as happy as that.
Ethan watched his movies with Bob, ate his supper, played…then eventually was off to bed with his new bestest friend ever!!!
Oh yeah…..and the price for making my sons day, week, no year a whopping ten cents, yep you heard that right ten cents! I love thrifting.
