Old map of Brampton
Note that there is no development north of Bovaird, east of Heart Lake Rd. The map is from September 1987.
Brownies
I'm just going through my boxes of memorabilia from my childhood. I found my Brownies Programme book. That was a fun time. I was in brownies for only a year, because I started at a late age. I think brownies was for girls between 6 and 9. I guess I must have been 8 turning 9 at the time.
I remember being such a go-getter. Maybe I wanted to catch up with the other girls, but for some reason I don't think that was it. By the end of that year, I had more brownie badges than most girls there. I think I got between 14 and 17 of them. Most of those girls had been there about 3 years, and had less than even half of that!
It makes me feel good when I get to look back on things like this. That is why I love to keep things from my childhood.
Now, if only I could get that drive back, that I used to have back then.

Sale sale sale
I went to the bay to check out the 70% off sale. I was thinking that I would skip the jewelry section and go straight to clothes. Well, when I got there, I decided to check if Betsey Johnson was on sale. Big mistake. No, Betsey wasnt on sale but then I decided to check the clearance section.
O.m.g. Soo many designer items were on clearance including Betsey Johnnson!!!!! Most of the Betsey earrings I already had. I was surprised to see them on clearance. I was supposed to curb my spending for a while. Oh, well....
I got some amazing deals on jewelry. The greatest find was a Swarovski necklace that had a silver teddy bear on it. Apparently customers were asking for it earlier but the Sales Associate had told them it was sold out. What The Sales Associate did not know, was that it was placed in the clearance section! Lucky me! The necklace was originally $220 and I bought it at 76% off that price. Wow!
Many Ralph Lauren, Nine West and Jessica Simpson items were on sale also. I bought a very pretty purple necklace and bracelet set for about 70% off from the Lauren line of jewelry.
After my jewelry adventure, I decided to take a walk upstairs to the clothing section. I was surprised to see that I felt like everything designer was on sale! I saw more sale items than new season items! Can you imagine... being surrounded by designer items all at 70% off, and in Toronto!
Long story short, I ended up with a few items. My greatest find was a Tahari brand suit jacket. I absolutely loved it when I saw it. It is all black, but has an animal print on it in black, making it very subtle. The regular price? $538. My price? $128. Wow! What a deal! I can't wait to wear it!
Next year I am waiting until mid-January to do my Boxing day shopping!
