A Clinique Drive By

This post is appropriate since today is Saturday which is Yard Sale Day in America.

You know how it goes down. Your sitting in a lawn chair in your driveway in the scorching heat, dealing with the nickel and dimers. You are selling all your junk when the packed out car begins to S-L-O-W-L-Y drive by, going around 2 mph, and every person in the car is giving your driveway a good lookin' over. Then they just roll on by!!!

A drive by! Denied! Shafted! Ouch!

So, I was standing in line at the Belk Clinique counter a few nights ago waiting to purchase a tub of Transparency #3 loose powder when I heard the Clinique lady tell the lady in front of me that Bonus Days at Dillards starts this week.

I know I didn't.

I just slowly meandered off after I heard the news, as if I had just been standing in line that whole time for my good health.

Oh Brother!

GIRL! I am digging your new page! It looks hot! Great job! Don't feel bad about the clinique thing...I usually call Merle Norman to see if you get a gift with purchase before I venture in there! Also, I rarely go into Payless unless BOGO is going on. We frugal, wise, biblical Moms gotta do what we gotta do!
