The scene: an overpriced department store
The purpose for our visit: to purchase a $100 group gift card for a relative who just had a baby
After paying for the item, I put the card in my purse. My kids were quiet until we got outside. And then they let me have it.
"You paid $100 for that?" Camber screeched. "That's a total rip-off!"
"You are not that smart," added Cortlen.
Kellen produced an identical card from his pocket.
"I got one for free," he bragged. "The woman told me that I could have it."
Sometimes I don't think that I'm going to make it to forty.

That's too funny!
You're kids are so amazingly smart!
Do not confuse the two cards and send the wrong one.
Your kids are onto something! You hand the clerk $100 and they hand you a plastic card. There logic makes sense :)
That is funny. Did he try to sell you his card?
Thats adorable
I love, love, love this blog. You (and your children) are hilarious!
I love reading your blog! I can always count on you/your kids to make me laugh.
LOL! Too funny! Your kids are too smart for their own good!
Very cute! Too bad the free one isn't worth $100! BTW that is quite the baby gift!
I like the irony the dept. store clerk employed.
Hmmmm....can I borrow the kids and let them do my shopping?
That's awesome!
ha,ha... Well, they're right!
Too cute. At least they are watching over you in your senile years!
I was laughing so hard from this. That was great
Rolling on the floor! That is hilarious.
You are hilarious, succinct and in trouble!!
OH you always make me laugh.
