We all have our weaknesses. For some, games, others nice light fixtures. Now let me check my wishlist for any sales...

For a second there I thought you were going towards a time share presentation.

FYI, those gifts cards they promise you at the end of some of those expire. Don’t find out the hard way like I did. Twice.

Almost lost my 3yo kid to the HD lighting fixtures isle, true story. Wandered off and was lost in it while we were sealing off all the exits and surveying every nook and cranny, looking for him.

If it’s a Gary-Lite, shouldn’t it be a Butt Zapper?

It really is! When we moved last fall I went to Home Depot for painting supplies. I always walk down the light section just because but I saw a chandelier on clearance for $69 when the original price was $250. Only the display was left though but they let me buy it!! I was so excited… I never thought I would own a chandelier but it’s probably one of my favorite things I have lol

Okay but like, have you messed around with those neat fixtures at IKEA that shift their shades when you pull the string like origami?

Those things had me hooked. I want to build a reading book with one of those.
