like an addict waiting to score

I confess I get Giddy, instantly become Thrilled and

over-the-top Excited about phrases like...


ONE DAY ONLY!


Doorbusters


Free gift!


Early bird specials.


___(insert any # here)% off


Special hours.


Limited time only!


I have an OVERWHELMING need to fulfill my shopping fantasies

as soon as i see those words.


like an addict waiting to score, my heart races, my palms sweat, I become agitated.

to say obsessed is not an exaggeration.


It's the thrill of the chase that i love.

i have been known to go, and not buy one thing,

but just love the thrill of racing through the aisles

cackling.



Black Friday is 19 days away.




~~

today I'm thankful for cotton candy sunsets.

I'm in awe daily of the vibrant colors the sky glows in Pinks, oranges, reds and purples.

wispy candy colored clouds or the Sky full of flames.

often i snap pictures with my camera phone.

~~

what's your favorite kind of sale?

any catchphrases that get you hot and bothered?


Sunset? what color is your fave?

and does everywhere else have such fabulous sunsets?

I thought of you this morning when I sent Wild Child to school for picture day in her tutu, homemade hairbow, and Twinkletoe Skechers.

It's been a few years since I hit the Black Friday sales. I must say that I am now ruined from shopping at 50% off day at Goodwill...$2.99 is now too much for that darling shirt...I will wait and only pay $1.49!! :)
I'm hopeless.

haha, I love to shop but sadly my wallet is empty :(

I will most likely be shopping the big sales this year...if you hear about something let me know please!!!
Sunsets....gosh I love the multi colored oranges and pinks and California has beautiful sunsets too when there isn't fog!

I rarely go shopping on big sales. It never turns out like I plan. The stuff is not there or it is too chaotic.

Good luck.

Piper said...

oooh what a beautiful sunset pic!!!
I love internet sales, probably because I'm becoming a hermit!!!

Love AZ sunsets! I don't think any other place compares! Even at the beach (ooops, did I just say that)?! The colors are amazing!

Just talking about Black Friday after Thanksgiving dinner with all the ads spread out, and the shopping strategies gets me all excited! Can't wait!

I love any sale, but especially Black Friday!

Utah is so pretty with the mountains. Sometimes it almost looks like a picture and not real. However, we don't get the same pinks and purple skies that Arizona gets and I do miss that. Arizona has beautiful sunsets.

I hate shopping. even on Black Friday. If I can't live without something I send the hubs early in the morning. It isoften easier to run to the Payson wal martthan wait in line at the WM's here....BahHumbug!
