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 shopped in every department, not sure why, but I was looking for a bargain.
I walked through the shoe department, looking at shoes — because I had just bought a pair of boots, not sure why.
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 through 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 the pockets of my jeans, but could not
find the coupon or the check.
The woman at the checkout gave me 20% off my jeans.
I walked outside to check the car, but the check was not in it.
I looked everywhere, but to 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. My head was still in turmoil over the lost
check because I ended up buying X-Men: Days of Future Past.
I 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 for
Guardians of the Galaxy on Disney Movie Rewards.
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 saleswoman was invaluable.
When I got ready to pay for my purchases, I looked at my
coupon!
The coupon I had was for JCPenney's, not Sears, and all this time I was shopping at Sears.
I explained to the saleswoman that I thought I was in JCPenney, and she laughed.
She said JCPenney 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 to JCPenney's and made my purchase.
The moral of my story is
to 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 A
clean woman had found my check.
The check was made out to Kohles for payment, and I told the saleswoman to go ahead and make it.
I asked her to leave me a receipt at customer services.
All in all, it was not a bad day!!!!
