So I went shopping at Ross last night to look for new leather pumps for work. Man, that place is chaotic! I did find a cute skirt for work and a great t-shirt for the baby (it reads "Daddy's Girl" over and over) at good prices, but when I got to the shoe section, holy moly. There was no way in hell I was about to spend a shitload of my precious time going through that mess. See, places like Ross and Marshalls are frequented by people looking for a deal, like poor people and frugal penny-pinchers like myself. In order to find these deals they dig and dig and mess the whole system up. Keeping clothes and shoes in size order or even correct section is a joke and losing battle there. So I took one glance at the FUBAR shoe section and said, "I'm outta here" and went to JC Penney, where I found my shoes in a peaceful and non-chaotic setting.
Then I went next door to Target to get necessary household items with my $25 gift card. I spent $24.92. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me with a Target gift card, where I am left with literally cents left on it! You better believe I'm gonna use that 8 cents next time, too!
The magazine buyer guy got me down to $30 for both magazines. He says he'll meet me tonight to make the buy. It's still a good deal for both me and him.
Finally, I have decided to go sell plasma. I found a place not too terribly far from the house and they're open on Saturday. I'll make $30 which is good money, in my book! I hope to go a couple of times a month, but we'll see.

btw, go to Ross, etc., in the morning, preferably on a weekday. They've usually straightened everything up at closing and you can look through the stuff at your leisure.
