YIPPIE! YAAA-HOOO! Thrifted some Diesel

As you slide one hanger, pushing some frumpy ass cloth out of sight, there is a slight chance, hidden deep in the rack, a hidden gem hangs.  That moment, when your eye catches a sparkle of hope, your body starts to explode with ecstasy, your hands are jumping to stretch up and outward, your vocal cord trembles to prepare for  screeches of excitement, but you must STOP these physical flares.  Don't play a fool; setting off these alerts will signal to all the vultures scavenging the store to hustle from all corners to be up in your business.

BEST PRACTICE: Every 47 seconds loudly state "nuthin good over up in here".  This will provide a comfortable 7 feet of personal space (in a heavily packed thrift store, that is close to 18 pairs of shoes and 44 pants or 64 shirts in your zone).

But every few years I have to tell myself I cannot be perfect all the time. And just the other day I let out a flare catching all patrons' attention.  Luckily the lightly worn 28 waist Diesel Jeans were already being death gripped in my own hands.

BEST PRACTICE: If you do set off a physical flare take a deep breath and clear your throat without anyone noticing your preparation for your next 'announcement' "did some body just fart up in here". Emphasis 'body' for a lasting affect.

I love finding Diesel jeans because I believe this brand delivers HIGH quality.  They fit me well, they hold up for many, many wears and usually the style/cut is trendy for several seasons. Unfortunately, a high $100, maybe even breaching $200, jean is not within my budget.  So you could imagine my excitement once I came across this pair; and they were my size.
