Being the typical chick that I am, I totally love shopping. My main shopping vice, obviously, is Gymboree childrens' clothing. Back in the fall, I was in that store every freakin' day for three weeks straight. I was addicted. BAD.
Every day I'd tell myself that it HAD to stop. I couldn't keep living like that. What if people found out?!
But the next morning would come, and I'll be damned if I wasn't jonesin' to run to the mall and pay another visit to Gymboree.
I forced myself to give it up cold turkey. I went an entire week without going. I didn't even look at the website! I slowly eased back into my Gymboree purchases, and haven't allowed myself to get that addicted since.
Anyways, totally not the direction I was going with this post. Today, we made another trip to the mall. Today's trip was much more interesting than our little window shopping expedition this weekend. I was actually allowed to SHOP!
Not much. Jose is the ultimate shopping Grinch. 8 years together and I'm just now figuring out to LEAVE THE MAN AT HOME if I want to shop in peace!! We went to Gymboree today, and he wasn't even excited over the $4.99 deals. Didn't even bat an eye!!
He let me get each girl two pieces, and then about had a heart attack when I grabbed a pair of $.99 socks.
"Seriously," I explained to the Grinch, "$.99 for matching socks is a GREAT deal!"
"Don't they have enough socks at home?!" He grouched in response.
"Not yellow with little pom-poms on the back!!" I insisted.
He caved. I'm giddy with excitment over the pom-pom socks and other items I bought today. I was on a super bargain high all afternoon. It was great!
And then I came home and read about a possible $1.99 sale on Friday.
WHAT?! HELL YEAH! I'm so there!!
I'm stoked. Can't wait!
