You are NEVER going to believe this...

First of all just take a moment and check out these Christmas Stockings!! Ok just normal cute stockings right??  That's what I thought.  So here is the story....

So I bought these adorable stockings about five years ago when Vance and I first got married.  Now I have no idea why I only bought three.  Maybe I only thought I was having one child!!  Anyway so now that I have two children and plan to have more I obviously need more stockings.  I look EVERYWHERE for more of these stockings and no luck.  Finally I checked Ebay and happen to find two of the red stockings up for bid and I decide to put my max bid at $20.  A couple of days later the auction ends and I was outbid.  Those stockings for sold for $42.  I was kind of surprised by that.  

After losing the auction I have an idea, why don't I sell mine??  I figure I'm not attached to them and I'll just by new ones.  So I put them up for auction on Ebay starting at .99 cents.  5 days later you will NEVER believe what these stockings sold for!!!

Are you sitting down???
