Spontaneous Shopping Success

Got a phone call from a dear friend today around 5:30 PM. Usually around 5:30, I'm sitting in bed on my laptop doing the usual, Twitter, Facebook, watching movies, and whatever else but today I got a phone call. "Hey meet me at SM (a mall)!" "Uh, what? Right now? It's almost night time." "But there's a sale at People Are People (our favorite store)! Everything's 50% off! It's not even dark yet, come on!""I would if I could but I doubt I can go out. I'll see what I can do." "Aw, alright. Text me. Bye!" A few seconds after that I got a text. Seeing that she did really want me to go I went and asked my Grandma for permission to go. I never usually go out on weekends, as sad as that sounds. It's not that I wouldn't like to but I'm not used to it. On the weekends you can find me in my room, laying in bed, on my laptop. Every weekend. Guaranteed. I use my weekends to purely do nothing. It's a part of my routine. Anyways, long story short. I went to the mall and met up with her, her being named Raye btw. Like most of me and friends' plans, we went through with shopping at our store, and found nothing. The 'Everything 50% Off' sale only applied to a table inside the store. A table. Very disappointing taken that I think very highly of that store, but it is what it is. After walking around the 2nd floor a couple times, another friend of ours Panjee decided to join and show up to our adventure and we continued shopping. And again, long story short since I keep drifting off and getting into detail, I found a cute pair of shorts at a very good price at The Surplus Shop. Today was actually the first time I stepped into The Surplus Shop, and I must say I was not disappointed. It reminded me of Ross or Marshalls, basically surplus stuff (obviously) from popular stores, mostly clothing, sold at very affordable prices. And we all know nothing beats a good deal. For sure. Here's a picture.
There I am! Sporting my highly accessorized arm with my hand made bracelets and strangely long thumbs, and of course, my newly purchased polka dotted shorts. A spontaneous shopping trip success.
