 Results of a Black Friday Shopping Trip Originally uploaded by ngilkes.
This could've been Misty or me. We had the hair brain idea of participating in the Black Friday shopping events taking place at various stores here. I went to bed at midnight and woke up at 2:30 with sinus mucus covering my entire throat and the feeling that I gargled with sandpaper. Of course I would feel this way when I have something to do. I laid in bed until 3:30 and then got in the shower. Misty showed up at 4:45am with coffee in hand :) By the way, she shows up sick as hell with Bird Flu. We get to Wal-Mart at 5:00. The place looked like New Orleans waiting for help. No, that wasn't meant to be mean, descriptive purposes only. Lines going in every which way for different crap they had on sale. Complete unorganized chaos. We needed these TV's they had. I asked 3 different associates and got 3 different answers. The third telling me that I would find the TV in the grocery section.....are you feeling the frustration yet? Well, while I'm asking this 3rd associate, Misty gets to witness a Jerry Springer episode unfolding right in front of her. This crazy ass woman is CUSSING this man (would make a sailor blush) out because he received something that shes been waiting hours for. Check out Mistys blog for a detailed story. They also had Cabbage Patch Newborn babies for $10. Misty and I look at this woman who has 15 in her cart....to put on layaway. The odds of her paying for that? Slim. So, instead of letting other people who are paying for this shit now get ONE, she decides to scarf them all in one swoop. So, we paid for everything and then had to go around back to pick up 3 TV's. She drives an Escort. Well, not really, but the cargo room is the same. Love ya Mist *smooch*. We had to make a pit stop at my house to drop off all this crap and then headed to Target. We get to Target 45 minutes late. It was complete heaven! Nice people, holiday music, angels floating in the sky, etc. We found everything we needed with no glitches or ass whoopin's. We got home by 8:30 and I started cleaning the house by 9:30. What a damn day! So are we doing this next year Misty? |
