***BEWARE...Potentially boring post ahead, proceed with CAUTION***
OK so on Saturday we needed to go to Lowes for some wood for a project that Scot is working on (more to come on that). So we walked in and went straight toward the one thing that we look at every time we go to Lowe's no matter what we are there for. The fake fireplaces. We have been eyeballing those bad boys for a really long time because it is one of the things that we really really wish we could change about this house. So we went over and there was a big old sign on top of them that said they were 50% off. We couldn't believe our little eyeballs. I was like that's it we're getting one. So we looked around and found the one that we have been wanting...and OF FREAKING course they didn't have that one in a box, just the floor model. So I was like OK let's go down to the Lowes that's closer to our house and see if they have it. So we get in our car and drive ALL THE WAY down to the one by our house (It's really not that far, I just felt like making it more dramatic). We looked around by ourselves for a little while but we didn't see the one we liked so we pressed the help button and this guy with a faux hawk comes strutting up to help us and let me tell you, he was wearing the teeniest tiniest little blue shirt I have ever seen folks. He must have washed it in hot water or something. ANYWAY he couldn't find it, he had never seen it, it didn't exist according to him. So then all of a sudden my brain walked back in to my head I guess and I said to Scot "DURRR why don't we just go back to the 1st Lowe's and see if we can take the floor model. They will probably give us an even bigger dicount"...SO WE DID AND THEY GIVE US AN EVEN BIGGER DISCOUNT just like I thought. Party!!! How could we pass it up? So to end a REALLY LOOOOOOOOONG and somewhat boring story...here it is...
So bottom line I just want you all to know, Lowe's is the bomb, faux fireplaces are the bomb diggity and guys with faux hawks in tiny blue shirts are no help!

That's so pretty and awesome about the bargain! What did you do with your loveSac? Mikayla will be so disappointed.
Awesome deal!!! And it looks so nice and comfy right there, like it was... meant to be. Enjoy!
Who knew an entire blog about a boring ol' fake fireplace and a trip to two different Lowes could be so interesting and entertaining? You should be a writer. You joined the right family, since those MacCabes are a pretty enteresting, entertaining group!
That is so nice, that is one thing i would change about our house as well..love it and love that you got a great deal on it...
I also love to look at the fireplaces at lowes. One of these years we will get one two!
It looks so beautiful in your house! What makes it look the MOST beautiful though is knowing it was such a good deal. :)
Great fireplace, and it makes it even better that you got it for a great price! Way to shop!
The fireplace looks great. I can't beleive what a good deal you got on it. Way to shop. Can't wait to see it in person.
That's awesome and that was really funny! Ha, I totally sport Corbin with the faux hawk and now all I need is a teeny tiny blue shirt. Score!
