Shopping and the Season
This afternoon when we went to pick up a prescription at Walmart's pharmacy, I went through the store looking for a few odds and ends that I keep putting off buying. The store was rather crowded. Want to guess where the aisles were most congested?
It was the Halloween costume aisles. I didn't look to see what was the biggest attraction or what kind of prices they were going for. I avoided that aisle and went in search of plastic storage containers.
Our town is doing Trick or Treat on Saturday evening. We'll be going to the Columbus Church where we have the social rooms open for the kids in that area to stop in and get a donut and some cider or hot cocoa.

I was thinking that from now until after Christmas the afternoon crowds at Walmart would be bigger and bigger and if I need to go there, I should plan to be there pretty early in the day. The aisles are not overly wide and you can't see around corners easily. There are Christmas figures, almost as big as I am, sitting here and there and doing electronic Christmas music but most people aren't even looking at them. They are just there.

At our Kmart today, the halloween aisles were not overly crowded, but we did notice that Christmas is beginning to infiltrate the seasonal space.
