Value Village = Win!!

I went to Value Village today with the gang (for those not in Canada Value Village is a thrift store, often you can find really cool things, but you shouldn't go with something particular in mind because you might get disappointed). And I scored so huge!

Things wot I got:
- dark red leather Doc Marten shoes that fit perfectly
- A nice tweed suit jacket
- A black double-breasted suit jacket (for use in my Hallowe'en costume)
- A white tuxedo shirt
- Cuff-links for the above shirt
- A purple dress shirt of awesomeness
- A glass mug with the Bounty on it
- Glasses to be turned into a monocle

And a dress for SL's Hallowe'en costume all for under a hundred dollars! The Shoes and the Suit Jackets could easily have been a hundred dollars each outside of Value Village. I feel like much success!

Also, I came home and was studiously ignoring the fact that the Canucks were playing tonight because they've been playing pretty badly and I didn't want to get disappointed and distracted since I have a midterm tomorrow (The Rise of Rome... MMMMmmmm...), but it turned out that they won!!! 4-1 no less! Take that Columbus Blue Jackets! S told me about it and then congratulated me on my non-observation policy, apparently it worked! Go Canucks! And Kevin Bieksa got me five points for our hockey pool! Woo Hoo!
