I had the opportunity for some "alone time" this afternoon, so where do you think I went???
If you answered Von Maur, then you must know me ;) I went for some retail therapy & The Von usually hits the spot.
I went upstairs to the women's clothing Dept. first, only to realize that there was nothing I wanted. Everything I found that I liked was full price and I refuse to pay for non-marked down items. I looked and looked but couldn't find anything. I even tried on a few things, but nope, nada, zilch.
The sales associate, Stephanie, is incredible and even tried to help me, but I guess I wasn't feeling it. So, I went to see my friend & Dept. Manager of the Girls' & Kids Shoes Dept., Kimberly. She always cheers me up. I looked for deals for the kids but I still didn't find anything, except a bib for Gabe, which is his gift from the "Easter Bunny."
Olivia will get many useful things from the Easter Bunny, yet Gabe gets a bib. Poor buddy~ but honestly, will he realize at 9 months, I don't think so. Let's save our money~Gabe needed a bigger bib, so I think my purchase was worthwhile.
I also realized that retail therapy is over-rated. I first noticed this on a business trip that I went to with Dan to Chicago (before we had kids). I was actually bored of Michigan Ave.
I guess that retail therapy is worthwhile if your with good friends or family (sisters/mom). I think I'm growing up at almost 30. Ha!
From now on, I think Dan's right, Internet shopping all the way~
