Strange Garlic Occurrences

Gilroy Garlic Festival of 2008.
Ebay for Wedding Dresses

Out of all the online reasearch I did, several sources claimed that Ebay was a great place to find deals on wedding dresses. And they were right, there are all kinds of wedding dresses for sale at discounted prices, but the demand for those discounted wedding dresses is fierce. I have been outbid countless times by bride-to-be-vultures who wait until the last 10 minutes of an auction end and then place a high bid. So far I have "won" one dress. It is very cute, but I think I'll keep looking.

I have to hand it to the Ebay creators, their biding system is addictive. I have found myself looking at wedding discriptions for HOURS without even realizing how much time has passed by, trying to find the perfect wedding dress -something simple and elegant, easy to pack and appropriate for Mexico- then, I place bids and cross my fingers. Ebay is like gambling for dresses and the thrill of winning, or even being close to winning, is very exciting. 

I think I'll go to ebay now, and gamble for some more dresses.
