I spent the weekend doing a little of this and a little of that.
My goal was to get some fall decorations to jazz up the casa, but that did NOT happen. I got a few candles if you want to count them as decorations. They’re wonderful. And were cheap. I got the Pumpkin Spice one at Kohls and the Honey Crisp Apple candle from Marshalls. Neither were more than $10. (I don’t understand how candles are SO friggin expensive. Dumb.)
In addition to the fall-tastic candles, I purchased apple cider (not fresh stuff, but I was really craving cider), pumpkin puree, cloves, and allspice. I have plans. Baking plans. I’m excited.
While I was at Marshalls hunting for decorations, I “bled my own blood” (name that movie!). I was trying to get to a candle in the back of a shelf, so I was sliding some candles over when I accidentally touched a broken one without realizing it. Can I just say…how on earth can such a little glass cut result in so much blood?! I found a salesperson, and they got rid of the candle. Then they asked me a question I have never been asked before: do you want a bandaid or do you want to press charges? It caught me off guard.
I declined, though, and asked for the bandaid. I was awkwardly walking around the store for awhile, waiting for it to stop bleeding so I could continue shopping. I feel as though I should have asked for my Honey Crisp Apple candle for free or something, but I guess I’m too nice.
Ever injured yourself at a store? What did you do?
Cold cider or hot cider?
Zoolander!????
Hahaha, I was very intrigued by the title, gotta say. Makes for a good story!
Haha that was the point! Glad you were sucked in. 🙂
Haha that’s the most random thing ever! Seriously, that’s really dumb of them to ask you that because if you had wanted to, well, they just gave you permission to… I can’t believe the things that people press charges for these days.
I also don’t get why candles – something that burns away – cost so much! I’m a total candle snob though and usually go to Bath & body works. But I only get them on sale, so it’s not too bad.
Yes! Candle prices make me so sad. I found one at Bath & Body Works that I absolutely LOVED but was feeling too cheap. I’ll have to keep a lookout for sales.
