Shopping Spree!

Today was the semi-annual sale for Layers Clothing in Salt Lake City. I made Cal come with me because I love to get his opinion on my clothes and he owed me big for all the skiing he did this past winter. :) What a good guy. When we got there it was a madhouse with a gazillion people crammed into a small warehouse. Half of the people were standing in line and the other half were digging through piles of clothes, some of which were rejects from the people standing in line. After searching through nearly all of the bins in the entire place, we had our own bin of clothes to try on. In the begining Cal gave me a budget so we picked out only the cutest things; which forced us to put back most of the clothes that we had collected. We were running on Taylor time, so we were way behind schedule, so we went and stood in line. While standing in line for no longer than 10 minutes, this lady comes up to me and said "You are the Winner! Your number 65, come with me". So we followed her to the front of the line to the checkout stand and she then told me that I get everything in my bin for FREE. I didn't know quite what to do and neither did Cal, but the excitement of not having to pay for anything made me wish that I hadn't put most of my clothes back. We thought of all the what if's; grab this, or that, or man, I should have kept that other shirt. Then as we walked out (because we were running late) we started counting our blessings and thought that if we would have kept more stuff we might have been in a different spot in line and then we would have been even more off our budget. We ended up leaving with all of our money in our pockets.
