So, here is the bad part about living in Bismarck, ND (well, besides the winters), the subpar shopping!
Sadly, despite being the mecca of shopping in Western ND, it still sucks! There is only, TJ Maxx, Target, Old Navy, Kohl's, Herbergers, JC Penney, Maurices, A Eagle and that is about it!
I know I shouldn't complain, it is better than the majority of cities in ND, but still, uggghh!
So Friday, I was bored and decided to spend my time shopping, big mistake! First I went to Old Navy, excited about fall clothes, well nope, it was all super boring! The same suede moccasins I bought last fall, for sale again, but with bows! The crew neck sweaters I bought last spring, the same but instead of butterflies or dragonflies on the pocket, there were bows, so boring! Come up with something new already. There were also vest and ruggles, wow haven't seen that since 2004!
So, I decided to buy some red chinos because they were on sale for $8, and after my experiment with maroon chinos earlier in the year this seemes like a great idea, but no! I was thwarted by the line. There were approximately six people in Old Navy on Friday at 6 PM, but of course they were all in line! Of couse the person in front of me wanted to sign up for a credit card, why? to ruin your credit to save 10%??? So another cashier opened a line, so instead of announcing loudly, "whoever is next" she just silently opened up the till and someone who snuck up behind me ran, yes literally ran to her line, so not too bad, she budged but I could go next in a few minutes, hmm, but guess what happened, she decided to open a credit card too, really really!!?? you budge in front of me, the person with only one pair of pants to buy, with your four items and then open up a credite card, so I started to get pissed!! then I am standing between the two tills waiting for the next one to open, and someone come up behind me asking if I was standing in line, and I said "yes, or at least I thought I was" trying to make a snide remark toward the person who budged, but I guess she took it in the wrong way and budged in front of me with about ten items of clothing , arrgghh so pissed!
So went to TJ Maxx, went much better as far as things found in the store, unfortunately when I got into the line there were two women in front of me that bought, literally, LITERALLY 100 mens shirts a piece, I am pretty sure they were buying the stuff to sell on ebay,because even if they were from SW ND or MT, they could get to a store more than once a decade. To make matters worse, once I was finally through the line and had all my purchases, I looked into my cart and saw a bunch of old used kleenexes, gross, some random person's snot was with all my stuff including the dresses I just bought, grody!!! And they final bullet, I bought two dresses in preparation my brother in law's wedding. Got home asked the color of the wedding, it is red, I bought a maoron dress, and a blue dress, so I can either clash terribly or make the family pictues red, white and blue, woo hoo!
