Went to Highpoint today. Note to self: avoid major shopping centres anywhere near Boxing Day sales. Kmart looked it'd been pillaged by the Hun. Everywhere there were kids screaming like their parents were being murdered in front of them. We'd find something one of us liked but then not in the right size etc. It was busy even for that place. My anxiety prone elder minipeeler hit the limit of his tolerance for that kind of thing even though it was his idea to go in the first place. I felt similarly and I called time on it. What was I thinking? ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
I feel sorry for the poor workers who have to tidy up the ladies shoe department. That shits grim.
Isn't it awful! And in shops like Uniqlo where everything is always so neatly folded, having to go around and endlessly refold everything.
