I had everything packed so nicely...
Mom met her limit on her suitcase so she asked me to add her blowdryer (texas size), flat iron, and makeup bag to my tightly packed suitcase :-0
Ziiiiiiii......riiiiip! Yes my suitcase busted and it is 11:00pm and all the stores nearby are closed, yay! Solution: asked dad to pickup a suitcase on his way in to pick us up so I can..yes....RE-PACK!
My parents "suggested" I not spend money on a new suitcase right now and use one of theirs. I told them that I wanted to have my own good set, but finally they convinced me after much debate to take theirs for now and buy a good set later. Hmmm...I wonder how old their suitcases are? Are they as old as the kitchen instruments and untensils from 1980 that my mom refuses to throw away??!!
I could just take some duck tape and bandage my suticase all the way around :-) .

Take it from someone who has used a lot of crapy luggage, a good set is an investment. Take your time and choose wisely. If your parents luggage is still intact, it is probably a good bag, if not perhaps the latest style. :)
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you! Sometimes you have to let them have their way so you can prove a point...unfortunately you'll have to suffer just a little lol. I guess it works both ways though, we make mistakes too!
