Cabin fever!!

We have been getting snow and more snow since before Christmas. The roads have been awful so we have been staying at home. Today I couldn't stand it any longer. We set out to go shopping at Sandpoint with the idea if the roads were too bad we would just turn around and come home. The roads were great, hit Walmart and couldn't believe the amount of Christmas merchandise that was still on the shelves. I guess the recession has made people cautious with how they spend. All the Martha Stewart punches were gone checked there first. The Christmas decorations were 75% off I bought a 4FT. artificial prelit tree for a whopping $6.25 and 3 artificial Poinsettias that had been $10.00 for $1.00 each, SCORE!!

  1. Wow, you got some bargains! I have noticed here in the UK that the recession is affecting sales in the stores a lot, and even if there are a lot of people thronging around the town centre, not many of them are carrying purchases. I guess window shopping may become the new hobby! Thanks for the tip on ribbon storage on my blog, and welcome to bloggyland
