Once upon a time shopping was fun. Now the only way to survive a major shopping centre is with the precision and planning of an elite military strike.
- Identify the target product,
- Plot the route to and from the target
- Include alternative backup routes in case excess stroller or walker traffic. (those grannies will run you down if you let them)
- After that there is THE CAR PARK where for some reason people seem to think that road rules are only suggestions, guidelines even.
Really makes you want to drive a tank on shopping day – like to see someone try and steal my spot then.
LOL aka black friday or otherwise known as boxing day madness 😉

Sounds like shopping like a guy… I know there are some who don’t fit that type, but I had to throw that out there.

No it’s shopping like a pissed off woman – much scarier.

They were lucky – VERY lucky – I just wanted to get out and go home where I could plan different ways of never having to go there again.

This is why I plan ahead so I can order everything online and if you do have to go to the shops bulk buy so you don’t have to go again- I have ten unopened shower gels in my bathroom right now haha I’ve learnt from my mum. Growing up if I went “I need you to go to the shop like soon, I’m out of shampoo” she would go to her cupboard and be like “here’s three I bought earlier” haha

Oh and I forgot to mention the flaw in my plan- prescriptions., the doctor will send them repeat prescriptions straight to the pharmacy, who will then post them through the door if you want but with a dog that’s just not safe so I have to go get them. One day I’ll get an external postbox…

I so detest the mall madness around here. Give me the beach any day! Everyone else can have what’s on sale. Punchy piece! Loved it.
