Shopped til I Dropped...Literally


When I arrived home from my shopping trip I told Jeffy that while we were in Bangor I went to check tire prices because I just didn't feel like shopping at the mall. He promptly asked where his wife was!! As hard as it may be for anyone who knows me to believe....I was totally shopped out!! What a great feeling that is after sooooo long with sooooo little shopping!! Needless to say I had a great weekend!!
The girls and I left here at 10am on Friday morning. We were in the Portland shopping mall by 5pm and we shopped there until supper and after supper we closed the Christmas tree shop at 11pm. By the way for those who have never been in a Christmas tree shop...it was really great!! They carry polish pottery year round!!!! Plus they have tons of great deals, it's a whole lot like Big Lots! Anyhow...we checked into our hotel and were asleep around 1am. We were up and out the door by 9am the next morning. We shopped the outlets in Kittery until dinner time, ate, and then headed to Target and the Christmas Tree Shop again...until closing. Sunday morning we were on the road by 9am and in the Bangor mall at lunchtime. We ended our shopping extravaganza at Wal-mart and the grocery in Houlton before heading across the border back to Oromocto!! Talk about a shopaholics dream weekend!!! We all got great deals and truly enjoyed a little time away from the kids! I do have to say that even though it was nice to get away...it was even nicer to get home! I missed the girls like crazy by the second day and of course Jeffy too!! I went hog wild buying markdown Disney store costumes and Children's place costumes!! How can you turn down Disney costumes for $3.99??? That's one of my purchases in the pictures! Is that the cutest Tinkerbell around or what???
Well I am now off to try and catch up on my sleep!! I'm way too old for 4 or 5 hours of sleep a night!! LOL Hope everyone in the States enjoys Black Friday shopping...as much as I may feel shopped out right now...if I could I'd be right there in the mix bright and early Friday!! You know I love a bargain!!
