I Sometimes Find Myself Reacting This Way

...when I come across a special treasure in Target's mark down bins.

Fight Erupts at Shoe Sale; Customer Shot
...Shooting guns into the air is a not-uncommon method for dealing with emotional situations in Turkey, including weddings, soccer games, demonstrations and deals on shoes that are almost too good to be true.

"Whoopee! A size NINE!!"
'Target' being the operative word.

This is why I no longer carry my gun to Nine West Outlet sales. As the only brand that fits right from the beginning and since the company loves the 3" heel as much as I do, I lose the ability for rational thought. (Really I stopped because my purse is now smaller than my gun, but the rational thought claim still stands - at least when I'm at the counter and handing over the plastic.)

Gotta love our NATO allies.

I say we bribe these shitheels $500 a day to fumigate the terrorist neighborhoods in Iraq (any that actually survive long enough to collect their first days pay might be worth keeping on the payroll

That store doesn't have very high caliber employees, it seems.

I think it's more that we're shellshocked by the values.

Surely the store has a policy of automatic firing for this sort of problem.

Nothing more tiring than rifling through the sales racks.
