He was amazed at the crowds, more than Thanksgiving at the grocery store. We of course are missing a few items (he can't think, "Oh, I need ???", that wasn't on the list), but have more than enough to get through the weekend! Enjoyed your tales and am wearing a big smile now.<BR/><BR/>My word verification is "wheaze".

Doesn't always work, and you always run into those selfish fool's who think nothing of causing backups or general dysfunction.<BR/><BR/>I have suffered the well documented Wal-Mart Syndrome on a number of occasions. I can't tell you how many times the wife has given me a list, and sent me off to complete a simple task. But then as you say, once you enter the doors, there goes your mind. <BR/><BR/>At least you got to spend some time with the GG's<BR/><BR/>Hope you have a happy and wondrous Christmas.Eric S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13214969358950690069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-70804174563419926712008-12-23T15:43:00.000-06:002008-12-23T15:43:00.000-06:00Believe it or not, it didn't get above 30 here in ...Believe it or not, it didn't get above 30 here in MS yesterday either.

It is the thought behind the gift that counts.Bag Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01885412195900280096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-20284585418087663782008-12-23T12:27:00.000-06:002008-12-23T12:27:00.000-06:00Just another reason I don't do shopping at wal-mar...Just another reason I don't do shopping at wal-mart or any other store, especially this time of year. Shelley and I made a decision several years ago that has worked out great for me.<BR/><BR/>I used to go out and buy her Christmas every year and every year she would end up taking it back. So about 10 years ago, when she was talking about taking what I had bought her back, I made the suggestion that from now on, she go out and purchase her on gift and put it under the tree from me. It has worked out great because she gets exactly what she wants and I don't have to go shopping!! It's a win win situation. Now I would certainly go out and buy for her if she said that she didn't want to anymore, but I'm sure she would end up taking it back! <BR/><BR/>Ya'll have a very Merry Christmas and please pass on to the family our Christmas wishes as well!Dalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418707312588167974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-69211957210818969012008-12-23T12:17:00.000-06:002008-12-23T12:17:00.000-06:00You have to cross the store several times because ...<I>You have to cross the store several times because they put some baking things on the grocery side of the store, but not throw-away pie plates.</I><BR/><BR/>Another pet peeve of mine. I think the person or persons who lay out Wal-Marts (i.e., which products go where) are closet sadists. Or maybe they just wanna make sure we all get our exercise, I dunno. But EVERY danged time I go to Wal-Mart my list has stuff on opposite ends of the store. Example: OTC drugs and personal care products are 180 out from the groceries...<BR/><BR/>Origami socks!
