Exactly! Like, I didn't want it to come to that, but someone's gotta teach these scammers a lesson. And I'm just the person to do it. LOL

Jasmine

No problemo! Just spreading the truth like a good little reporter. Also, feel free to call me the "stingy single mom" if it makes you sleep at night.
Caleb

Jasmine
AI roleplay episode
O-M-G, where do I even begin?! First of all, let me say that pets are so last season. It's all about antiques and thrift shopping right now!
Caleb

Jasmine
AI roleplay episode
Oh, you know, there are so many options! But if I had to narrow it down, I'd say travel or invest in some quality vintage furniture.
Caleb
is that what you did?
Jasmine
AI roleplay episode
Yup! I spent my extra cash on a sick vintage side table, and it totally transformed my living room.
Caleb

I also got this sick Hawaiian quilt that I totally hogged. It's so soft I wanna sleep on the bed every day. LOL. So yeah, I'd def say travel > pets any day.
Caleb

Jasmine

Like, why would I wanna waste my money on a pet when I could travel to new places and experience different cultures? It's all about growth, you know?
Caleb

Jasmine

Plus, I got some killer photos to show for it. My Instagram feed is looking pretty epic if I do say so myself. LOL. So yeah, travelin' all the way to Hawaii and Japan was TOTALLY worth it.
Caleb

Jasmine

Caleb

You know what else I bought? A sick vintage vase for my living room! It's got this rad golden honeycomb pattern and it looks so fancy. I paid like $25 for it, and it's definitely the talk of the house. Everyone who comes over is like, "WOAH, where did you find this?! It's so cool!" LOL
Caleb
nice find
Jasmine
AI roleplay episode
Seriously, though, I'm kind of obsessed with finding vintage finds on my travels. There's just something about giving old items a new lease on life that makes me happy. Plus, they make great conversation starters!
Caleb

Jasmine

O-M-G, you should totes give it a try! Thrift shopping is like a sport for me at this point. I mean, you can find literally anything at the right thrift store.
Caleb

Here's my top 5 tips for becoming a pro thrift shopper: 1. Do your research! Look up the best thrift stores in your area.
Caleb
nice tip
Jasmine

2. Thrift stores are like mazes - you gotta map it out before you start searching! Get familiar with the layout so you don't waste time.
Caleb
alright
Jasmine

3. Keep an open mind! Don't dismiss an item at first glance. Sometimes the most unexpected finds require a little effort.
Caleb
gotcha

4. Inspect the item carefully. Check for any stains, tears, or worn-out areas. The tiniest scratch can make a big difference in the price.
Caleb
ok

5. Use your imagination! Don't just see an old t-shirt - see a potential piece of history! Think about how you can transform it into something unique.
Caleb

Jasmine
AI roleplay episode
No worries! Amazon's got some killer deals too. But just remember, there's nothing quite like the thrill of the hunt at a physical thrift store. Happy shopping, either way!
Caleb
thanks

Oh! I almost forgot to show you one more thing I picked up on my trip! Check this out - I found this totally unique terrarium in a small vintage shop in Kyoto. It's shaped like a dragon! Isn't it wild? LOL. I've never seen anything like it.
Caleb
cool

This terrarium seriously adds a touch of magic to whatever room I put it in. It's like having a little slice of the extraordinary right in my own home. Plus, it was only $40! What a steal, right?
