Did I ever tell you I'm a snob...stay with me...

...some of my family members might say that I am :)  but that's okay...

I'm a coffee snob.  I like to grind my beans...is that a crime?  Wouldn't this Starbucks Gift Tray be a cool gift for Father's Day?  (or me ;)  Loving me some fresh Caffe Verona this week...but any ole' Starbuck bean makes me oh-so-happy!

I'm a vacuum snob.

 

My life wouldn't be complete without my Dyson Canister Vaccum nestled in a corner of the house at all times.  I'm not sure why but I just like canister vacs better.  Maybe its because of the stairs?  I can tell you that this "sucker" rocks.  I had a Rainbow previously and it "sucked," as in...great little "sucker" but I hated that water thing.  This vac is just as "sucky" but no water.  LOL!  Folks we have three kids...used daily.  Great investment...

I'm a Canon snob.

On a daily basis my Canon 10D (yes, you heard me right--she's 8 years old now) is within arms reach.  LOVE that camera.  Need a new battery BAD, but still love her.  I do know the day is coming...that I will have to buy a new camera and I have to say...this is the one for me, I think!

Its the Canon Rebel T2i (swoon :)

 

It takes HD video!!!!!  me want :)

Furniture snob.  I shouldn't mislead...my furniture looks pretty bad right now.  Honestly, I don't even think it goes together that well.  I have a "Picasso" (done in Bic Pen blue by a certain baby boy) on one arm of the bomber jacket taupe leather couch that I tried for years to keep pristine (just ask my family :).  Koolaid stain on the other end.  I gave up.  But if I were rich, I would totally buy all new living room furniture like every THREE YEARS!!!  I've been eye-ing some really fun occasional chairs including this Decor Print Zebra Lounge Chair...to add to the mix.  SO SASSY!!!

 

I'm a hot dog snob.  LOL!  This is sort of an inside joke with my family...but with a three year old that would love to eat hot dogs three meals a day, whats a girl to do?  (Yes, I do know how they are made and I still buy them...don't remind me.)  But I do buy the fancy schmancy name brand Beef franks, Angus franks and so on.  Though my mother swears Rodeos are the best...grilled well done, of course! 

I'd like to be an Apple snob, but I'm not there yet---still typing away on my 7 year old Dell and using  (while cursing) my newer Dell laptop (it's the Windows Vista I can't stand!!!).  I'm sure that all my trouble would be cured with a new Mac, right?  RIGHT!!!  The $849 price tag (WOW!) on this Apple MacBook Pro makes me think I might get there sooner than later!  hee hee! 

So for pretty much everything else in my life...I'm a penny pinching, coupon clippin' mama. :)  Call me a snob if you must...it's okay.

{thanks to Overstock.com for giving me the opportunity to share my love for just a few of their bazillion products...products that I use (wish I used) and love on a daily basis.}

Not sure how much the overstock.com chair is... but they have one similar at Target with FREE SHIPPING...for $135.00... Love the chair... Target also has a similar one that would be great for the kitchen table that I am drooling over....
Happy Shopping

I am a Canon snob too,lol. After 3 point and shot Cannon camera, we finally have our first DSLR T2i a couple of weeks back. One lens (28- 135) bundle. Shop we bought from has a NO TAX promotion. So save a bunch. LOVE it!

OK so I also grind my own coffee beans (it tastes so much better), and I love zebra print furniture, and I love my Canon and would love to upgrade (DH says he'll give me his 5D when he splurges on a 5D Mark II for himself) and... yeah, so I'm right there with you!
