It's getting so cold! Can I sleep under your Xmas tree?

I'm a cheap gift! I'm fun! I talk! I'm warmer than a Snuggie®! Get me now while I'm half off! My pants are already down 50%!

I nearly died getting this picture! The bin was empty and I was trying to get my friend, Erin to climb in, but she was not having it, so to prove to her what an awesome idea it was I climbed in first and then an old lady came by and said, "Oh, that's so funny! Get in there with him and I'll take your picture!"

Well, after 15 minutes of me begging her and getting "No way," this sweet woman, in 3 seconds gets her to climb in like it was the perfect thing to do. I'll never understand women!

We get our picture. I've cropped her out because she's so beautiful you wouldn't even notice I was in the photo if I hadn't. Also, she's underage and her parents are very litigious. 

Anyway, Erin steps out and I hadn't even realized the bin was on wheels! Unlocked wheels! So before I could get out the bin, with me in it, it starts rolling off the sidewalk and down the parking lot toward the traffic. I'm clawing at air! I'm trying to stand up to hop out! Every move I make forward only moves it backwards faster! It's like stepping out of a canoe on the edge of Niagara Falls.

Above my screams I hear the cackles of laughter coming from Erin who is doubled over in front of Michael's where we had been shopping just moments before my near death experience.
