Paying Attention!

Yesterday I went to town to pay some bills and shop.

My first stop was Kohles.

The line at the register was long, so I decided to shop.

I think I shopped in every department not sure why but I guess I was looking for a bargain.

I walked through the shoe department looking at shoes not sure why because I had just bought a pair of boots.

I guess women have a thing for shoes.

I walked through the kitchen section looking for Rachel Ray dishes. I love Rachel Ray cookware and utensils.

I walked thought the bedding and then on to lingerie.

Next, I went to the women’s department looking for a pair of Chap jeans.

I picked up a pair of Chap jeans and walked to the register to check out.

I laid my jeans on the counter and started looking for my coupon.

I had put both the coupon and Kohles check in the front pocket of my jeans.

I looked inside my purse and jeans pockets but could not find the coupon or the check. 

The woman at the checkout gave me the twenty percent off my jeans.

I walked outside to my look inside the car for the check but it was not in the car. 

I looked everywhere but no avail.

I went back inside Kohles and I started asking people if they had seen a check lying on the floor.

A housekeeper even went through her trash.

I found the twenty percent coupon lying on the floor in the aisle near the candles.

I had everyone in the whole store looking for my check.

I left my name and telephone number and I left the store.

I continued shopping: 

 At Finishing Line, Ultima's and 

at Sally's, I bought nail polish and hairpins.

At Best Buy I went to purchase the new Marvel Movie Guardians of the Galaxy. Which will not be released until December 9, 2014.

I guess my head was still in turmoil about the lost check because I ended up buying X-Men Days of Future Past.

I think I just looked at the many characters on the package. I was just not thinking straight.

I did not even notice that I had purchased the wrong movie until I decided to enter the code at Disney Movie Rewards for Guardians of the Galaxy.

Later that day I called my daughter and told her about my strange day. 

She laughed and said let me tell you about my day.

 I had an hour before I had to go to work so I decided to go shopping. 

I went to the store (Sears) and the sales woman was very helpful.

 When I got ready to pay for my purchases I looked at my coupon! 

The coupon I had was for JC Penny’s not Sears and all this time I was shopping in Sears.

I explained to the sales woman that I thought I was in JC Pennys, she laughed. 

She said JC Pennys has a good sale on the item that I want to purchase and if they don't have it then I will come back.

I had to leave for work, no more time for shopping. 

After I got off work I went by JC Penny’s and made my purchase. 

The moral of my story is 

be careful where you put your money, checks and coupons.

AND 

Pay attention to where you are shopping. 

Later that night I got a call from Kohles, they said 

clean woman had found my check.

The check was made out to Kohles for a payment and I told the saleswoman to go ahead and make the payment.

I ask her to leave me a receipt at customer services.

All it all it was not a bad day!!!!
