Ride-Able Elephant @ Sam's

I went to Sam's last night to fill up with gas and to get some of those deli roll sandwich things. What a combo. Anyway, I cannot go to Sam's without spending at least $50 or more. Last night I spent $118, but I got Maddie an adorable outfit, an Osh-Kosh windbreaker, the sandwich roll things, that bacon that's already cooked (you just microwave it for a minute or whatever), a case of Miller Chill, Burberry for Men cologne, and this adorable ride-able elephant. He cost $24.66 or something like that.


I'm talking about the elephant on the right, the one with the gorilla on his back, not the fat cat who seems to be in every single picture I take. Daddy Rooster sometimes surprises Shorty Rooster by lining up her stuffed animals or doing stuff like this - putting the gorilla on Floppy's back. If you notice in the background, the Cabbage Patch doll is riding the white tiger who's sitting on the couch. (Please don't notice the avocado green carpet that I swear is older than me or the 1970 cabinet stereo to the left or the vacuum or the 13-year-old couch - yes, I admit, it's hard for me to part with things.)

Anyway, Sam's had this elephant, a lion, a giraffe, and tigers that were all ride-able. The weight limit says 140 pounds - damnit! I missed it by about 200 or so!!

Hint for Sam's shopping: Any prices you see that end in 1 (a penny - i.e., 4.81, 19.51, et cetera) that's Sam's lowest price ever and it won't go any lower than that and whatever the item is, you're getting it at one hell of a price, so buy it!
