Success !
Our Mal-Wart finally got the Summer fat quarters in, and after much
deliberation, I selected four. Got ‘em cheap-serged and in the wash.
Surprisingly, the single bin of remaining Easter quarters are still a buck –
cheep, but I already bought my limit on those. Unless the rest are a quarter or
so ! Guess ‘Easter’ isn’t quite so rigidly ‘Holiday’, like Halloween or
Christmas.
While
Dearest Son examined laptops, video games , DVDs, and other electronic
delights, I checked for markdown toddler shoes (for Ms. Elsa) and onesies (for
the AG-size girls). Nope on the shoes, and I soon realized that the $3. folded
infant shirts started at 0-3 mos., a size I already know to be too big for my
purposes. And the markdown garments were all licensed, and still more than I
wanted to pay. However, more prowling soon yielded single Gerber onesies, in
Newborn, for just $2. Had to choose between lavender flowers and bright pink
owls, and went with the lavender. Long as I was careful, I could try it on my
dolls, and return it if it didn’t work.
And it
does ! It went in the wash, too, because a bit of shrink wouldn’t hurt. Now I’m
not sure if I want to make a blouse out of it, or a nightie. Probably a blouse,
both of my dolls already have nightwear, and I can always do this again for
that doll I’m planning on giving to the woman in therapy who’s already tossed a
Frozen castle back at me. (sigh) I’m an
idiot, but I don’t wanna penalize daughter for her mother’s insensitivity.
Once home,
I found that a nationwide funeral service thoughtfully sent me some information
on how my Veteran’s Death Benefits have changed. No, didn’t ask for it. (sigh)
Our M-W
has a free sample device – I’ve scored several snacks from it. Today was a
packet of Persil laundry detergent. I think Dearest was a little disappointed.
