A $21 "petting"

I was all excited to get a "cheep" massage yesterday. We went to the School of Massage and Cosmetology. For $30 an hour one could get a massage from a student "massager". After hearing a few not so good stories about places like this, I really wondered "com'on now, how bad could it be"? In short, Bad. In long, really not very good at all.

I laid under the sheet and got a firm "petting". Back, arms, hands, calves, and feet. Then she told me I was done. WHAT? It hasn't even been an hour and what about my L-E-G-S? Instead of a relaxed just out of bed look one usually has when leaving a massage, I had a perma- frown. I just spent $30 for 50min of petting?? (not good for the hoarder)

Then, came a gift from the frugal gods. A coupon for 30% off. Yeah! $21 for a firm petting is acceptable.

Alison,
It's a good start - I finally figured out how to access your site.
Guess Who?

Guess what? our neighbor is in massage school? So do you think it would be weird to get pet and never go back??
