David and I believe in thrift. Why buy a new couch when we have the perfectly good one we got from my mom, who got it from my grandma, who bought it brand new when I was five years old?!?! And why should Cameron have an Xbox when we have David's perfectly good Atari from 1982? I mean, if playing Berzerk with a joystick was good enough for David, it's good enough for our kids!

Perfectly good

I agree. Our house is still filled with perfectly good furniture that I got from G&G. I'm still using the dresser that Aunt Beth & I shared when we were little girls. Waste not, want not.
On the other hand, I'm thinking you could use a new sofa! Also, we will introduce Cameron to Wii Mario-cart in August.
