Efficiency is our middle names

Today, we returned those items that did not fit right to Wally World and our monies will be credited to our account in a timely fashion.
On our way there we stopped at our local Beall's Outlet in the Promenades Mall that sells named brands at discount prices and why we hadn't gone there first is beyond me.
I was able to find an outfit that was tried on when we arrived home and it fit!
Same with Hubby's shoes, but they fit in the store!
Better quality and priced right.
No seconds or damaged as in some outlets; all first quality!

After we went to return our items that we were able to replace, we decided to see what was going on at the Town Center Mall.
Parking was no problem, but the snowbirds have not returned yet.
Inside was quiet too.
Sadly several shops were no longer there.
Probably victims of the internet shopping that we all do.

We decided to comparison shop the items we already bought to validate our shopping acuity.
As we wandered from store to store we were not able to compare apples to apples since the exact same brands were not sold in the stores we canvassed, but our items purchased were also of very good quality.
The truth is to get a true comparison the items should be made by the same manufacturer, so it was determined that although we had not been able to compare identical products what we did acquire were a great deal!

We even went into the regular Beall's, not discount outlet one and they did not have the same brands, oddly enough!

What we had bought the tan suede deck shoes Hubby bought were half the price on the ticket, and so were my blouse, navy embellished with silver sparkly studs, stretch dark navy denim slacks and my navy colored sneakers were about a third of the ticketed price, but on top of that it was a Monday and at Beall's Outlet on Mondays you get an additional 15% off that is if you are fifty and over!
So we did good.

The food court loomed large and with several nationality styled foods to choose from, and so Hubby and I chose to eat lunch there; it had been quite a while since our last visit.
I had decided on the Greek food kiosk, and got a spinach pie and Greek salad with iced water, and Hubby went over to Sborros and got a Stromboli with iced water too!
Again half of my lunch came home with us.
Boy, I sure do get a lot of mileage out of my eat outs, ha!

From there we came home.

On that note allow me to be the first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly share all your blessings and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS And please, please, please people do not forget about Harvey, Irma, and Maria and of course the Mexican earthquake victims help is needed all over the world!

Below I have left a couple hot keys to some non-profits that are helping, and through them you can help too, but it is always good to double check anyone else's suggestions.

Just a couple places to go to help!
