Remember about a month ago, when everyone in Minnesota was seeing their UPS and FedEx driver more than our own family?  We open the front door and right there, on the step, is a box with a smile on it.  If you weren't smiling before, you were when you saw that driver with the box.

Before Christmas, those boxes were showing up at my house practically every single day.  And yes, I will admit it...I had a problem.  After the holidays were over, there were a few things that I had to return thanks to kids and their growth spurts.  As I was searching through return policies on Amazon, I found out that there are 15 items that you can never return to the big internet box store.

I had an interesting phenomenon as I was looking for something super comfy and warm last week when our temperatures plummeted in Minnesota.  I was looking around for a sweatshirt that was extremely warm and as I was moving clothes around to find it, I saw so many shirts that I haven't worn in quite a few years.  It was time for a bit of an upgrade...but I have no money.  I spent it all on those Amazon boxes that came in December.
