I Went To Target Today! A Few Observations. . .


Here are a few observations from my little shopping trip to Target.

-1-Today is Sunday and it appears no one goes to church anymore, at least young families with small children. They all go to Target! Yep, I know I wasn't in church either but at least my son is grown and I don't have to provide for his spiritual well being anymore.

-2-Next, as a few of my very close friends know and you know who you are, I have screaming kid magnetism. What is that you may as? It's when every child that is crying, screaming or going to scream finds their way close to where ever I'm standing in a store. I'll walk away and one minute later, there's another one or the same one has followed me. It happens in restaurants too. No matter where I'm sitting, if a child is going to cry or scream they will be seated next to me.

-3-Target has the widest aisles and the cleanest floors. (I bet you thought this was going to be an all bad list, didn't you?). I don't think I have been in that store once when it wasn't clean.

-4-They had a big sale at the "Dollar Spot" area. That's right, the dollar stuff was on sale and it wasn't just Christmas items.

-5-Valentine stuff was already being put out. They better hurry! It's only 48 more days until Valentine's Day.

-6-They had "Polar Express 3D". I want that movie!!!! It wasn't on sale though. Sooooooooo, if anyone needs any ideas for my birthday on January 16, well - hint, hint!

That's about it. There's probably more but I was distracted by all the crying, screaming children and must have missed anything else.

(This blog is dedicated to my friend Jenny who has screaming kid magnetism too. You can only imagine what it's like when we go anywhere together!)
