Last Minute Birthday Shopping
My wife’s birthday was coming up, and I needed to shop for gifts in time for the dinner we planned for the day. Instead of buying just one shirt or a special belt, I decided to give her a new wardrobe from head to toe. I also decided to shop at the newly opened consignment store downtown, which I have been hearing rave reviews about.
I didn’t know I was in for a surprise, though. The “store” turned out to be a huge warehouse converted into a shopping wonderland. Shopping for some womens polo shirts was a dizzying affair; I had only planned on buying one but ended up getting three. I also wound up with two new skirts, five belts, and three new pairs of socks. I was so excited about shopping in the place that I didn’t think about how I will wrap those clothes. And I certainly can’t give it to her straight from the paper bag, can I?
