I am so excited.


Remember how I was contemplating whether or not I should spend the $500 on a bike that was a great deal (we were getting it at cost!!). Well I opted not to because the money could be used elsewhere.


I found out this week that BF bought it for me as an early birthday present (my birthday is in two weeks!!) I got it Wednesday and I LOVE IT. It makes the commute into work SO MUCH faster!


I posted my old bike on Kijiji (bf thought I would be lucky to get $100 if that -> It was a cheap box store bike) and I sold it yesterday for $120.00!!!


I used the $120 to do a major grocery shop and stock up the cupboards (they were bare) so I feel good about that!


Now I just need to get my little marathon runner and doggy moving!

Awesome! WTG making the old bike work for your pantry, too.

I love, love, love my bike and think everyone should own one. I just have to get over my fear of it being stolen if I turn my back for a second, despite the U-bolt. DH insists that perfectly rational, non-criminally minded individuals are not, in fact, plotting to steal the bike...but c'mon, it's adorable!
