susandennisIf Myrna actually enjoyed our Goodwill trip one fourth as much as she said she did, it was a huge success.
I love going to the Seattle store and going up and down every aisle. And, so, apparently, does Myrna! She had a blast. Half way through the store she said "why haven't we been here before????" We both bought way too much stuff. Clothes and household stuff and, of course, a few - really not so many - puzzles.
We did not walk the aisles together but found each other often. At one point she told me she found two elephants but at $12.99, they were a little more than she wanted to spend. "But they were really soooo cute."
Then she showed me something because she wasn't sure of the price - "that can't be right". It was $2.99. Turns out the price printer prints the $ all squishy so it looks like a 1. So she was reading the 12.99 when it was 2.99. So I asked "do we need to go revisit the elephant situation?" YES!!!! Sure enough her $13 elephants were only $3. They both now live here at Timber Ridge.
I found a lot of great stuff and had a great time but I'm pretty sure she had a better time.
"Can we go back sometime?" Any time you want.
