My Favorite Store

My favorite place to shop in the whole wide world is Marshalls with T.J.Maxx in a close second with Target, a dismal third place.
And since this is the first time I’ve ever ranked my stores of choice, I feel like Chick Fil A needs to be on the trophy platform too.
So, let’s just say when I swing by and grab a sweet tea, put my purse in a cart and walk around Marshalls or T.J. Maxx for half an hour, it’s my favorite date. With myself.
It’s my more for less gettin’ place.
TJMaxx/Marshall’s sent me a $50 gift card to shop with…I think I’m going to surprise my hubby with a gift. We usually don’t shop much for each other, but we have both been known to break all the rules.
I think he’d like a little of this and that:
For Him - SweatersFor Him - Personal CareFor Him - Tools
What’s your favorite store?

    You are SO lucky to have opportunity to shop with, well, yourself! I was at Aldi today with my 3. At the checkout, still insisting we were NOT buying the doll my 6yo was still carrying around (after being told 800 times that I was NOT buying it), my 3yo picked up a jar of pasta sauce to put on the conveyer belt. Yep. Dropped it. Nope, I was THIS close to catching it – but didn't. After making sure she was safe and then apologizing to the checkout clerk, I turned to 6yo and took the doll from her, once again saying I was not buying it. Turned back around to the 3yo and 9yo, asked 9yo to bring 3yo around to me (the LONG way to avoid all the broken glass and mess). Finished unloading the cart and noticed that upset 6yo was GONE. Just GONE. She took off.

    Sigh.

    Everything worked out. But I am SO ready to go shopping without kids.

    That is where I told my husband to shop for me this year! (He needs very direct hints like that… actually, I often have to pick up the things myself :) . We dont' spend very much on each other, saving it for the kids, but I know he can find something great without spending much at those two stores.

    Even better to shop it with a free gift card!!

    Oh my, I might need to be revived. TJ's and Marshall's are my most favorite place to shop!!! A $400 coat for $40, I think so! (Seriously, I got that deal last year).

    I am having a baby in January, so this would be perfect for my "need clothes badly" phase of life!! I will probably be spending the money anyway, but a little help would be great :)
