I Have Never Found Another Decent Pair Of Shoes

The Boy Child is home for the summer and a thrifter like his mama, so we made a trip to Savers the other day.  As is our routine, we separated to look at different things as soon as we walked in the door.

He was looking for shorts, I was in the home goods.  As I was making my way to the back of the store, a woman stopped me and said, “Will you look at these?  Can you believe how cute they are?”  I looked around to see if she was talking to me as I had never seen her before and she sure seemed familiar with me.  “This is my first time here.  It’s amazing.”  Yes, but it’s a secret.  Don’t tell anyone.

I made my way to the pillows and there she popped up again.  “I mean it’s just crazy how much great stuff is here.”   I know.  I come here all the time.  Once, I found a pair of Donald Pliner shoes…………..$200.00 shoes………..for $7.99.  Never. Been. Worn.

“Donald?  Donald who?  What are you talking about?”

Donald Duck, and now you need to move along.  I’ve no time to chat with strangers.  This business takes concentration.
