We got the lumber deal! Armageddon didn't happen so here's the lovely and amazing Brigit.
Last week Tearfree sent her daughter out to buy doggie supplies but she neglected to provide detailed instructions, instead just telling her to take the money on the dining room table and buy a collar, lead and food bowls.
Tearfree's 11-year-old daughter bought a $13 collar, an $18 lead and an $18 set of feeding bowls. When Tearfree received this news over the phone she freaked out. "My Gawd, what did you get?" she said, trying to keep from totally losing it.
"Fake Louis Vuitton," replied her daughter, who is a total brand name slut.
Finally yesterday, after accepting she would never get around to returning this overpriced merchandise and that she must take responsibility for not providing pricing instructions, Tearfree decided it was time to move on. She even used the leash in question without bitterness and remorse. But then today, when she and her daughter took Brigit for her 8-week vaccines, she was reminded of the situation once again.
"Wow, a Louis Vuitton leash," said the Vet's assistant.
"It's fake and plastic," shot back Tearfree, who is not into brand names and looks down upon those who worship them.
Oh," said the vet's assistant in a manner that made it unclear whether she was relieved or disappointed.
"Why did you have to tell her it was fake?" asked Tearfree's daughter after the vet's assistant left the room.
"Because that's the difference between us," answered Tearfree. " I'd be embarrassed to own a Louis Vuitton lead and you're embarrassed to own a fake."
Here's the lead for you to bid on over at Ebay if you're so inclined. And the real thing sells for around $300 Canadian just in case you're considering it.

Cute pup!
Hurray! No Armageddon. Grateful to still be alive. And the added bonus of a totally adorable pure bred puppy. It's a good day.
I love Bridget she's cute and adorable and deserves a designer lead and collar.
my daughter is also a label ho. it is disturbing. she wants to buy a pair of $300 seven jeans just because they are seven jeans. i keep telling her to go to old navy. she rolls her eyes.
GO SEVEN JEANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PDT princess ... I suspect I know who you are.
Can you explain to me your generation's obsession with designer brands? Are US Weekly and In Style magazines and the obsession with celebrities and what they wear to blame? I suspect they are.
When I was a wee lass, my girlfriends and I were bargain-hunters. We used to go to something called the Hadassah Bazaar at the CNE because of all the great bargains there.
Your generation of girls is not in any way interested in getting a good deal. Why is that? If you have a $100 to spend, wouldn't you prefer to have five items instead of one pair of jeans?
Embrace H and M!! And Simon's!!!
Hey Jacy,
I like bargains too, you know. Right now, I am wearing a pair of jeans that were originally 40$ but I got them for 10. I mix and match a lot of stuff plus I buy vintage designer stuff. In my closet(and jewelry box) you'll find labels like Tiffany And Co., Lululemon, Holt Renfrew and Club Monaco but you'll also find Old Navy, H &M, Simons and The Gap.
p.s. I happen to know that Tearfree has a Marc Jacobs skirt.
Shame on you Tearfree. I'm appalled.
Jacy: Old Navy--notorious for having clothing made in countries that are famous for child laborers.
Cheap clothing made by kids who have no choice so you can afford the cell phone for junior?
I'm not here to judge, but.....jp
Jp-- back up your claims. Let's see some links to some credible sources that say Old Navy uses child labour.
pdt princess
bravo for the mixing and matching and bargain hunting.

Plz don't shoot the messenger Jacy.
BTW, JP if you want to criticize other people at least be brave enough to show your name. You probably have some items made by child labor somewhere in your wardrobe.
p.s. a Kate Spade purse Ay
C'mon, nobody heard of China being reamed for child rights violations,
Sri Lanka, and hang on what about
Pakistan.
I just checked the label on my Old Navy golf shirt for that one.
I want to know if the rumour that Wal-Mart is the number one employer of children in the world is true.
I mean by the time it gets to me there must be a least a buzz about it.
I might be willing to back jp on this.
Did a child labourer make my Kate Spade purse? I must know!!
I will admit it. If ever I win the lottery I'm getting a Tod's handbag.
And the Marc Jacobs skirt was on major sale.
