susandennisOn the way to Target, I stumbled across a KMart getting ready to close. My idea of heaven.
I am the kind of person who would much much rather have $100 at KMart than $1,000 at Nordstoms. I'm just cheap. And I love cheap shit. When I was little my father's parents lived in a tiny town in Missouri. When visiting there, we kids were allowed to walk to town on our own. They had a dimestore. It was better than Disneyland.
They had a lot of stuff marked down and 10% off of everything. I found some wonderful bargains. It was great fun. I had wanted to go to Target to get some cheap black pants and some 409. I got some great (and cheap) black pants at KMart and 409 marked down and THEN 10% off. Fun. Fun. Fun.
I never made it to Target. Oh well.

I think we've found a third.
