Morning Slork...I knew you would not be able to resist the sale shopping...true to form my dear...I love it!! I got all excited yesterday when I went into Aaron Brothers and they had this sale buy one and get the same or lower value to 1 cent!!! I bought 6 canvases!!! The sale goes on until the end of January and you can guarantee with I get paid on Tuesday that I will be down there buying some more canvases!! As far as clothes shopping....I do too much of it, you know that!! I love Kohls myself. It is one of the few places here in the valley where I can get 11's. Usually I have to go to Nordstroms out in LA or over to AZ...which I did a couple of weekends ago . Hope to talk soon!! ya and

I hear ya girl! I love to shop too and do way too much of it. Kohls is right next door to where I work and I've been avoiding going in there cause I know I'll buy too much. I went out on Christmas Eve alone to browse. Ended up spending about $80 on ME. Since my tt 2 months ago I love the junior low rise jeans. Not too low, just a bit below the navel. I will have to get into Kohls before the good stuff is gone. There's a store called Melrose in a mall here that has cheap stuff all the time. When they clearance it it's even less. I've bought many things there for $3.00. Have a good day and happy shopping. Terry Coles

Glad you enjoyed the shopping! It is so much fun. I found some sales at Sears and J.C.Penney. I may head out to Kohls now that you mention it. LOL

Aren't we all just shopping addicts... I have been in TJ's, Marshall"s, Dress Barn, Macy's and Filene's in the last two days.... Buying, buying and more buying, as if my three full closets aren't enough,but such fun!!!!! Have a great new yaer Talk to you later

So many clothes...I am printing this thread to show my husband it isn't just me. But I hit the Talbots sale and oh my, the clothes were so lovely and the prices not as outrageous as usual...Rita, are those three regular closets? I have a walk in so I'm trying to justify my actions here...haha...good to know I'm not the only one who need a 12 step program for clothes shopping. Happy New Year. Judi
