Even if you've never planned out a dream wedding, you at least have SOME idea of where you'd want to be proposed to. For me, it's all about the thought that goes into it as well as how romantic the actual time and place is. For this man in Nevada, he proposes in what I consider to be the most unromantic spot probably EVER.

And that place is...the TSA Security line! LOL!

Newsweek says an unnamed couple got engaged right there in the TSA Security line at Reno-Tahoe International Airport in Nevada. The proposal was filmed by security cameras, which Reno's TSA initially posted to their Instagram. This post has since been taken down at the request of the couple.

The post did say that the man had talked to security personnel prior to proposing so that they knew. The post also was captioned with "Shoes off, rings on! We can't think of a safer place to propose than in security! But if this isn't your first choice, we have something we'll honor. If your bag containing the secret rock needs to be checked, request a private screening."

Before the post got deleted, comments from Instagram users expressed excitement for the couple. @Theadventureinsider said, "Did the guy purposely bring it through the metal detector so it would go off and lead to this? However he did it, this is brilliant."

@Amitabh_s said, "... and the happy couple minus the shoes + the ring passed #tsaprecheck happily ever after."

Instagram users also commented some lighthearted jokes like @Sweetestofcheeks said, "I'd to be [be]hind them." @Anthonyjlasala said, "Still with the shoes off? It's a nice moment but all I can think about is her smelling people's feet while trying to enjoy this time."

@Cassiuswink said, "Imagine being missing ur flight cus someone was proposing at airport security."

Have you ever seen a public proposal like this? How would you feel to be proposed to in the TSA line?

Someone cue Macklemore from 2012, because we're talking about thrifting! Shopping secondhand is not only cheaper, but it's also sustainable. Plus, you can find some really unique treasures that can't really find in any other retail store.

Not that I really need to sell you on thrift shopping...if you've been before, you know the rush you get when you find that one thing calling your name. The new knick-knack will bring the whole room together. Or the statement piece you've been dreaming about for MONTHS! Whatever you're looking for when you go thrift shopping, you're bound to find something you didn't even know you needed.

I like to thrift shop a lot, and I especially like to go with my best friends. Because obviously, they know your style sometimes better than you do. And it's always nice to fall in love with something that your good friend picks out for you.

These are the 9 best stores around Charlotte for thrift shopping. A lot of them I've been to already, but some of them are at the top of my list to visit and try out! If there are any stores I left off the list, but you think deserve on this list, please let me know!! Seriously, I need thrifting advice as much as anyone. Email me where you go thrifting at lexi@kiss951.com.
