empallinOne more post to make the day complete.
So saturday morning I was at work and a commercial for Macy's came on. It said they were opening at 6:00 am and the first 1000 people in each store would get a free $5 giftcard. Well, this was the news I was waiting for. So I figured if I went to check the mail and got food, I could make it too one by six. it was a plan. So I went and check the mail for the first time in too weeks. So there was no mail in the box. Just notes. "Too much mail" and "You have a package". Kind of had to expect this. So it was of to the Castle for a milk shake and some cheese burgers. I always forget and then get reminded how screwy they are at that time in the morning. I ended up sitting at the drive through for about 10-15 minutes. Dammit, I have a schedule here. I finally got my breakfast and headed for the Macy's futherest away from where I was. My MBE doesn't open until 9:00 on saturdays and if I timed it right I could hit two or three stores and still get there before they opened, I was going to work this scam to it's fullest. So I go to Macy's at like 5:58 am. Have a cigarette and let the other morons go first. Rich people don't usually wake up early and poor people usually don't shop at Macy's and the middle class is always getting smaller. So I knew I had room to play. So I got my card and headed for the tree ornaments. That was all I was getting anyway. That is all i ever buy there, which dates back to Mike and David and numerous trips to Dallas. It ended up being better because all of the ornaments were 30% off. Now this is what you call a score. So I figured 10 marked price of ornaments and head for the register boy. And hell ya I want it gift wrapped. I was out of there and off to the next one. But I had to make a call first. Hey Mike get up and go to Macy's now. No. Oklahoha City doesn't have any...and Sara is going to kick your ass. Sorry, gotta go. Umm, yeah you do.
I decided on the way that I was only going to go for two because the third one would have taken me way out of the way. Oh well. Got to the secnd one and got my card, a handbill, and a lifesavers from an old bat. She was basically shoving the things into peoples hands, acting like her shit didn't stink. So rather than dealing with her I asked someone else where the ornaments were. Third floor. He should have added that they were in a broom closet. Since I had time I actually looked around at this one. I found this worderful set of Mikasa ornaments that I was very tempted to get. I love Mikasa but $45 was out of my price range. For now. If you really love me and don't know what to get me anything Mikasa will do. So I finally found some ornaments that would do and headed to the register again. Ass the girl is ringing me up she tells me I am getting an addional 15 % off. Cha-ching! There was just one more thing to take care of. Ask that bitch who her manager was. Well I got down there and she was no where in sight. Instead there were three shiny happy girls handing out the cards. I was actually trying to dodge them when they handed me another card. Was I suppose to deny this? Well, I sure as hell wasn't going to, since the cards don't expire until the end of the month. After Xmess sales here I come again. And since I had to deal with the fragrence section anyway I thought I would stop and get a price on Egoiste Platinum By Chanel. Debi loves this stuff and I can never convince myself to buy it. Well, the small bottle was $50. Fuck me. Nevermind. I'm not sure which one of us has the more expensive tastes. So I just got a spay from one of the samples and called it quits.
In the end I hit two stores, got three cards, and spent about $4 on $22 worth of Xmess decor. And worked the scam to death just because I could. And I was still at MBE before they opened. I did more before 9:00 am than I normally do all day. And on pain killers.
