A Slight Change in Plans

As I mentioned in a previous blog, we were planning on getting a new stove after Christmas. Our current stove still works, but it's a bit old and doesn't really have any convenient functions. After weeks of doing our research on what the best option would be, we decided to go a completely different direction.
We saw the Walmart and Kmart adds last Sunday and they were featuring there workout equipment. We were suddenly pumped and ready to do some new research. We were leaning toward an Elliptical machine or a Treadmill, both of which were on sale. So, Friday night, we were out running our errands and strolled into Walmart and Kmart. Both places had there equipment sitting on a shelf out of reach. We weren't able to test drive any of the machines. Since the sales were going on for one more day, we decided to wait another day to think about it. So this morning, we decided to head to the Sears in Piqua. We knew they always had work out equipment on display. We were lucky to have someone helping us that knew what he was talking about and was very helpful. We also got to test drive several different machines
In the end, we ended up buying the Treadmill from Sears. A little more money, but definitely better quality. Sadly we had to sacrifice a stair stepper that I already had, to get the new treadmill in the spare bedroom. Currently, the stepper is sitting in our driveway marked "FREE". So, if anyone is interested in a perfectly good stair stepper, that's free, just let us know. We will gladly give it to you.
I guess I'll have to put up with my stove for a little longer. I think the Treadmill is a bit more needed right now.
