| The problem with Target |
I decided that the next time I "need" a few essentials from the store (such as laundry detergent and diapers) I'm just going to have to send Mark. Because the moment Harper & I step into Target our list of "needs" (and contents in our cart) grows extensively.
Take, for example, this Valentine's crocodile. When I first saw it I laughed -- I guess it just seemed rather anti-valentiney but cute at the same time in the midst of all the Valentine stuff. Harper, of course, agreed completely and promptly placed it next to her in the cart. Upon further contemplation it made me think of a children's book we have, "The Christmas Crocodile," and I thought a Valentine Crocodile might be a good continuation of the theme (we've been calling it a crocodile, but it might just be a Valentine Alligator -- hard to tell with reptile plush.)
Continuing on the same Valentine's theme, we also came home with this adorable door mat. I mean, it has one of my favorite fonts on it -- how could I resist? So cute!
See what I mean?
Target.
Bad.
stay away.
or you just might end up with your own family crocodile...
...or 2 boxes of peanut butter crunch - 2 for $5 this week!
On the upside, I did manage to remember to buy both the laundry detergent AND the diapers.

-
You are too funny! At least you remembered the diapers. I went to Target not too long ago with only diapers on my list and came home with two bags of stuff and NO diapers. DOH!
-
Target does the same thing to me. :)
-
oh man, I completely know what you mean! I NEVER go in to Target and come out with only what was on my list!
-
I so know what you mean! I do the same thing!!
-
those are some cute finds...
don't come my way...
I would probably enable the target visits :)
-

i can't say no in that store.
i never buy just what i went in for.
-
HA! Cracking up because I came home with a door mat too when I went Thursday - the one with hearts all over it. And Carson tried to convince me he needed the plush "Muffin" (uh, cupcake ;)) rofl
-
Yea...I'm addicted to the $1 spot...whaich is more like a $10 spot for me...ha!
-
just think if target was less than a minute from your driveway to their parking lot such as myself - very, very bad.

-
i love that font,
please do tell!

LOL all the way with you. I can sooooo relate. Not to the crocrodile but the experience. He He!!!

So there are some good reasons to not having a Target up here in Canada, eh?! :)
-
Ha! I was just thinking this, because I got in sooo much trouble in the $1 section yesterday. Their valentine's stuff is too cute!
-
Too funny! At least you remembered what you really went for...I usually end up walking out with everything BUT that..lol! :)
-
I call Target the $100 store. It is a miracle if I get out of there without spending at least $100. I need to quit going there.
