Bed Bath and Beyond my wildest dreams!

It's like Heaven came and built a place right on Dimond Blvd just for me! I know that most of you may have them in your town and that it's old news, but I had NO IDEA. I now believe I fall squarely into a very large atypical marketing bracket. The "20-30 something mommy who still wants to stay slightly hip but who has an obsession with containers and cooking gadgets".

When we walked in I really had only planned on buying sheets. But they bombard you with 20 foot high displays of STUFF. Pans, sheets, towels, containers, glassware, plates, mirrors, clocks, and on and on and on... It was so crowded that I didn't have time to stop and look in one spot. We literally had to keep moving. It was all about the 2 second "do I buy" decision.

We spent $50 and I never even got to look at sheets. But hey - I have a new fantastic mickey mouse waffle iron! Cause, uh, well...I NEEDED it! Ok, so I did leave with some things I needed like a new can opener and felt pads for our furniture and a new set of glasses that were only 10 bucks! And they were EXACTLY what we had been searching for for an entire year!

I told Hubby that he'd better keep me on BBB watch because I may overstay my welcome. When I escape the house it may be to browse the many aisles of wonder instead of my mundane trips to the bookstore and Joann's. Sigh, the plight of a container obsessed middle class mommy.
