I love shopping! I come from a long line of shoppers. In fact, if I'm out with my sisters and my mom, it is a day-long event. It is not unusual for us to be in one store for over 2 hours. I equate how we shop to a hunter hunting for the big game. It is no fun to just go into a store and buy something full price. Oh no, you must stealthily move through the clearance racks until you come upon the perfect bargain. You bag it, whether you need it or not, because it is a deal! As the hunter takes their picture with their prize kill, we, the shoppers, must open our bags on the couch when we get home and admire all the great finds. I have tried to pass this heritage onto my children. Paige can maneuver through the sale racks with the best of them. Alex...not so much. He's like his father.. They only go out once or twice a year. Go in the store and buy what they have researched ahead of time- whether it is on sale or not. What is the fun in that?
