Sharin' the Luck

I don't do Black Friday shopping. Crowds drive me insane. Walmart drives me insane. I vowed I would never do Black Friday shopping.....

until today.

Leapsters at $30 at Walmart, and I needed TWO of them. That's $40 in savings. My plan was to just get up, not even shower, mosey the twenty minutes into town, sweep in, and pick them up, and be back within the hour. Leapsters are so last year. No one was going to want them.

Someone wanted them because the Walmart employee informed me that by 6:20, they were gone. The nice lady told me to wander around a bit because after the dust cleared, some may show up. I circled the store a couple of times. (Oh, and to those two ladies who were looking for the $88 pink Barbie Jeep, someone had abandoned one in the automotive section. I heard you. I heard your loud phone calls to Janet, (we all heard you) moaning the fact that you got the Gabriella and Troy dolls but not the Jeep. Did I bother to tell you? No. I just kept circling that Barbie Jeep prepared to tell you that it was mine if you spotted it, one aisle over. )

I was about to go home when I spotted a Leapster in a cart, waiting to be reshelved. I grabbed it. While I was chatting up the cashier about needing two, but one would do, she pulled over a restocker person who had one more in their cart!

Because I had good luck, I am giving you some good luck. I happen to have a brand new copy of Bobby Flay's new book

Now, I say "new" loosely. It is brand new, but I have flipped through it. Grilling just isn't my thing, but it might be your thing. So if you would like to enter to win my flipped-through copy, please just leave me a comment! I'll announce winners sometime Saturday or Sunday!
