Worth it?

No order out pizza for the Smith family for two months....

We now own this:

Why did I walk down that aisle at Costco today? I thought all I was buying today was a paper shredder and a flatscreen to replace our 14 year old TV that is dying. (Yes,you read that right - I've owned that TV longer than I've known Brent!) Thank heavens annual rebate time came at the same time our TV really decided it didn't want to work any longer...

Anyway, I have to say we had a great time this evening playing it! And, I actually won a few of the races instead of my son winning them all! I plan on playing it on my own when he's gone to school, so I can get REALLY good at it...hey, this mom's got to do something to overcome his lightning speed reflexes and better computer gaming skills, right?! :)

We once gave up two months of any restaurant/take-out/delivery so that we could have two days at an indoor waterpark, so I'm hearin' ya!
