OP here...
Hit the stores yesterday...
So my shopping buddy, and I headed over to the Loop... We went into Kohls I did pick up a few things... I got a necklace for my cousins wife, she loves Native American jewelry, and this piece has that feel to it, she is going to love it... I found a charcoal pair of legging, and a couple of clearance shirts, and a belt, I was out the door for 43.00...
We hit Ross as my shopping buddy had to take back somethings that did not fit... I scored pretty good in here for my Grandson who's 5... Nike jacket, Under amour hoodie, Spiderman, (2) dino's, astronaut, and a Frog shirt... right at 40.00 out the door, so really good considering that the Under Armour hoodie was 85.00 and the Nike jacket was 85.00 on the original Nike and Under Armour tickets..
Penny's was a bust... the store over there is always so disjointed, and everything is always in a mess... Every-time we go into it... They divided up all the clearance its all over the store without any reasoning or thought behind it... My friend went to try on a couple of pairs of short, and she said that the fitting looked like it had not been cleaned out all day, and the carpet was littered with tags, and trash, so she did not even bother trying on what she had...
We stopped at Books a Million, and I had about 125.00 dollars worth of gifts... my friend had about 50 to 60 dollars, they lady in front of us had at least 250.00 if not more.. and the poor young woman at the register, said the register was frozen and was calling and calling for the manger to come out and help her, or let her get on another register or open another register... and the manager would not come up front... we could hear her telling the young woman, just to wait, and see... She was like there are about 8 people in line to check out... I felt so sorry for her, she was about in tears... We waited about 15 or 20 minutes, and still the register had not come up... and still no manager... In the end we left everything on the counter... We were the last people to leave, everyone else had already left their items...
We had to stop at Wal-mart on the way home... my Grandson has mentioned "astronaut legos" to me a few times, and I was shocked that they had the one I was looking for, even more shocked at the price.. 48.00 dollars... Wow... So another gift off the list, which is a big one for sure... I still have to hit up the
Lego Store at Disney Springs, maybe this weekend to look for another one he really keeps talking about...
So how is everyone's shopping coming along?
