Scribble About Life: One Of Those Days

Do you ever have one of those days where you keep picking the wrong lines at stores? That was my day today. Lol. So I figured I'd tell you guys about it.

So my mom and I went to the mall. I had a censor left on a coat that we had gotten a few months ago, but it just got cold enough to wear and I happened to notice it yesterday while in American Eagle... and then the alarms went off. SO that was  a thing... Anyway we went to get that taken off today, there were lines all over, we got in a short line... but it still took a while to just do that. 

Then we went to Sephora... surprisingly no line there. There is always a line at my Sephora, but we were in and out there pretty quickly. 

Then we went to a small toy store and we were going to get a game for someone, but then we saw the price tag for that game and it was ridiculous. Plus we waited in line for forever and no one was anywhere near the register to help us... so that was an issue. 

Then we went to another store and there was a minion ornament that we were going to get... some woman jumps right in front of us and is asking the person at the register a million questions and gets him away from the register to go look for something. And that pissed me off a lot. She saw there was someone behind her, she saw that we only had one thing, and she still had to get him away from the register... and he didn't call for help, he didn't say "sure let me just take this woman first" He just went off to help her... so I told my mom it's not worth the line... let's just leave. 

Then we went somewhere else and we almost did good... but the woman in front of us said "No, this was on sale" and the person at the register had to go help her. She called for back up, but that girl was busy explaining every foundation they had at the store (this was a drugstore with mostly make up and beauty supplies) and this woman seemed to not be sure of which to buy... and probably wound up buying nothing. Lol. 

We also went to a CVS... the line didn't take too long... but we were behind 2 people and it could have gone a little faster. The man in front of us needed to print photos and the girl helping at the registers was called away to do that when we were there... so that wasn't a big deal, the other woman was done anyway... but that didn't take too long. 

Also I went to American Eagle because I accidentally purchased 2 of the same thing when I ordered online... and that was a long line. I was there yesterday and there was like no line, I went today and there was a big line where people had a lot of questions about a free candle... but they had a lot of help and the line moved quickly. Just funny I went in one day with no line and then the next day... huge line. Lol. 

This is why I've been ordering online so much. Especially around the holidays. There are no lines... yeah you need to wait, but they're usually here pretty fast and... yeah. I'd rather sit and wait then stand and wait. Lol. 

But it was still a good day. Shopped a lot... not a whole lot... but a lot... I did end up shopping online for a few things haha. And I ate pizza. I'm in a good mood because really all you can do is laugh about it... but it is frustrating. Lol.

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
