And there goes a lot of money

Julie and I decided to spend our tax return before we get it. Of the items on our list of wants, we chose furniture for our bedroom. Julie saw a bedroom set at Ashley Furniture.com, and I liked it as well. We went to a local furniture store that sells Ashley's stuff, but did not see the set from online. Nothing else there struck our fancy, so we headed to Star Furniture. Again, we did not find the set from online, but we did find another set around the same price range that we liked a lot (check it out). We then headed off to Gallery Furniture, and as luck would have it...we found the set from Ashely! Unfortunately for Gallery, we liked the set from Star better.

We headed on back to Star and looked at their set again. We decided that it was what we wanted in our room for the rest of our lives (or at least a long long time). Then it was off to do the paperwork. So, now we are just waiting to have our headboard, footboard and rails, two nightstands, dresser and a mirror, chest of drawers, and an armoire.

It is nice when they have 0% interest financing for 12 months. That way we can put the tax return money to use earning interest until the full payment comes due.
And when it comes due...there goes a lot of money...but worth it.
