Cars and Christmas

So C and I went to Burien Honda on Tuesday night. We had decided even though it was a small dealership, the guy was nice enough (pure car salesman though) and it was close if we ever needed to bring the car in. We knew the selection was small and they actually didn't have a color we liked, but the guy had said they could get one in. When we meet him Tues he switches his tune, there aren't any other colors out there at other dealers and even if there were they sure wouldn't be willing to trade him (because we're talking about 07s here). So we should just buy the 08 he has (after telling us for 4 days that the 07 was a much better deal). I'm like well, we'll take a look at the numbers but if it's too much, I would much rather look for an 07 in a color we like. You know what he quoted us....? $577 a month. For a fricking minivan...I'm like if I had that much money, I would be getting a Lexus or Mercedes. Ridiculous. So we thank him and say call us if you can get an 07 in a different color. Oh yeah I really want to help you guys get what you want. Blah Blah. Have we heard from him? Nope. So yesterday Cory drives by Renton Honda (way bigger dealer) and says there are like 25 Odysseys in one section. So, we are going to look there on Sat morning. I am sure many are 08s but we may get lucky. And maybe since they have more and probably want to get rid of them...we'll get a good deal. Who knows. Buying a car sucks, unless you're rich I guess.
However, on a happier note..this is my last day of work for 12 days! Merry Christmas to everyone if I don't blog until after. I hope you enjoy your time with family and friends and be thankful for that time! I know I am! Love you all! XOXO Merry Christmas!
