prepared: I battled the crowds at the huge store in town and I won!  The kids are ready for school tomorrow!

I fought off hordes of people shopping for school stuff all at the same time and I won!  I got everything on their lists!

Was it like black friday? lol
human
YES.  *chuckle!*  School starts tomorrow here and it was absolutely insane.  The worst part was, usually I go to the store regularly before 10A because there's less people in there and I can just kinda stroll through the aisles.  Oh no, not today.  It was just about elbow to elbow!

Stick to your routine next time

I have to grocery shop on Thursday and hopefully the furor will have died down.  But I was in the checkout line and I swore that next year, I'm ordering stuff online and having it all shipped and just keeping my happy self at home!  
human
I hear ya! I am definitely shopping online
human
Especially since I was just browsing and a lot of online places have deals better than the ones in store!

plus you can usually get some kind of cash back. I love deals
