It may surprise NO ONE to hear that I love shopping, but it’s not all about using the magic card and getting things. It’s about the whole experience, especially around this time of year. I love seeing the good (and bad) Santa visits; taking advantage of free cookies and hot cocoa; and, having my purchases gift wrapped to myself. I especially love having a goofy time shopping with my nephew as we look through sales and try things on. But it’s not all about taking from the experience, either;but, sharing and participating in it. Usually, I love chatting with the sales clerks and all the people I suddenly meet from the past. But tonight, I saw a woman toppling 7 things in her hands as I was rolling my 1 item in my cart. As a constant victim of unexpected overshopping, I grabbed my one item and asked if she needed my cart. She happily took it with a “thank you.”
As you go shopping this season, make it an experience for yourself and for others. Make it a memory, because it’s the little bits and loony moments that people think about later and remember.
