Retail Therapy

After surviving a bit of high pressure stuff at work this morning, I finally got to "lunch" at 2pm. I meant to pay my Macy's bill then hoof it up to Court Street and put a check in the credit union, but while paying (judiciously in the Women's dept, so as not to be tempted) I saw a sign for 80% off clearance. "Wow! 80% off!" says I. "Yes," responds salesgirl taking my check, "we're setting up for our big labor day sale, but you can get those prices today." Then she uttered the magic words: "Your size will be upstairs."

Crivens.

I was perusing the racks (ONLY those with designer labels marked 80% off) and finding a few maybes, then I happened on the perfect skirt JUST at the same time as a drag queen, who proclaimed it not his size but "You could do an 8! Your ass would look darling in that! It's so HOT!" So now that I was going to have to try it on, I might as well try on a few maybes.

I ended up with two tops, a skirt and a dress, all designer labels, for under $70.

Crivens, indeed.
