Bike trails, Here I come!

I found it! I found it! I found a beach cruiser for me!

We have already had to return 2 women's bikes - - yep! blame that hassle on the hubs. He'd go out and be all happy that he found a woman's beach cruiser for me, only to bring it home and I can barely get on it! The last one required a step stool for me to get on...never mind that my feet barely could reach the pedals! The hubs has good intentions, but he tends to forget that his wife is not your average height woman! Bless his heart.

So anyways, last night I was on my Continental Airlines One pass account and I was perusing the online stores that I can get points from if I order something. Well, one of the stores is Wal-Mart.com. I thought - -Ehhh! what do I have to lose?!
I go straight to the bike section, click on youth bikes and ...... waaaaaa-lah! The very first bike is a 24" WOMAN's Cruiser! Yeay! yeay! Happy dance! I don't care about the color... I'm gonna girly-fy it by getting a basket to put on the handle bars. Yeah - go ahead, laugh at my dorkiness! But that basket will come in handy when we have to bring lil things like the kiddo's sippy cup or even my cell phone.

Did I order it? Yes, I did! Saved me some money and chose "Site to Store" for my shipping option. Now we just wait to get an e-mail from them letting us know that the bike is ready for pick up at the Wal-Mart by our home. Awww! Now I'm glad I decided to wait and NOT get the $300 bike. Whew!

I win all ways - - I get my bike...don't pay for shipping....AND I get points added to my Continental frequent flyer account! Which by the way, I am 10K miles away from getting a free ticket to Guam...Yipppppeeeee!
