A fun little game

Hello, Hello!

Last night, Dan and I had some time to ourselves. We decided to check out the Comedy Cabana in North Myrtle Beach. We saw two comedians Chris Gay and Pete Lee. They had appearances in places like Comedy Central and Last Comic Standing and they are all around awesome {see a picture of Pete Lee at the first picture.}

I haven’t laughed that hard in forever! :-D .

Afterwards, Dan and I played a little game that we usually play during every vacation. If you have ever been to Myrtle Beach, you will know that there are a TON of beachy-surfboardy-like stores along the main strip and they all sell pretty much the same items. There is a lot of random I-don’t-need-this-but-I’ll-buy-it-anyways-because-I-am-on-vacation stuff.

For the game, we gave each other 10 minutes and a 10 dollar limit to buy each other whatever we want to buy the other person. This time though, we made it so the person could USE the selected object in someway.

It’s a fun game and you can really get a lot of stuff for under $10 or whatever price you use.

- I bought Dan: 2 Myrtle Beach t-shirts, and a kids small shovel and bucket to build sand castles with :-)

- Dan bought me: Some saltwater taffy (love the stuff), a small card that looks like a credit card titled “Official Reasons for Being Late” (you check the reason. Yes, I am a “late” person but I’ve worked through it I swear!), and some of those “silly” bracelets that are all the rage with the kiddos these days. :-)

See? It’s a fun game. You should try it too.

Tomorrow, I will post about how we spent our last day :-) Hope you’re enjoying following along!
:-)

Fun! You guys sound like you have so much fun together! I grew up going to Myrtle Beach every summer, so I know exactly what you’re talking about! When we were kids we used to beg our parents to let us buy something from there. Now my son does the same thing when we go to the beach!

I’ve actually never been to a comedy club and always wanted to go! Love your gift game idea! Sounds right up my alley. :)

OK that idea is too fun not to try. Next time you should do the five dollar holler. $5 in 5 Min.

Live comedic shows are some of my faves!

So cute! My cousins & I used to play a similar game, where we’d try to buy the most ridiculous thing for ourselves while we visited Hilton Head. <3
