Oprah has Serious Clout
Posted on October 31, 2009 by Ching under Life.
Brian and I braved the mob at Payless on Friday to avail of the “50% off everything in the store” offer that Oprah advertised on her show, which I would not have known about it if not for Angie and Pam. The offer was good on Thursday and Friday. It was serious mayhem. When Oprah advertises a business, it’s really scary. It was complete and total mayhem at Payless last night while we were there.
I have to recognize Brian for being a the best husband in the world, because most husbands would not have gone with their wives. Brian not only went, but he held my place in line as I continued to browse the aisles. I think he was in line for over 30 minutes. God bless his heart. I’m glad he did, because it gave me a chance to pick up some shoes for the boys (our nephews Logan and Eli).
Not only did he hold my place in line, but he held this other woman’s place in line also. She was ahead of him in line and he watched her stuff and moved it forward as appropriate, which allowed her to continue to shop without losing her place in line. She was rather indecisive.
“I did my good deed for the day,” Brian said as we were leaving.
“I know,” I told him. “Thank you, baby. I really appreciate it.”
“I wasn’t talking about going with you,” he replied. “I was talking about holding that other woman’s place in line.”
“Oh,” I said. “She really should have brought her own husband.” LOL.
I did my good deed that evening, too. I had made duplicate copies of the coupon. Every time I heard someone say that they did not have a coupon, I gave them one. That way they didn’t have to scramble and figure out the number to text to or search for coupon or what not.
Speaking of Brian being the best, he drove me to Beau Monde this afternoon for the facial (microdermabration) that he scheduled for me as a birthday gift. After dropping me off at Beau Monde, he went to Victoria’s Secret to claim my free panty so I didn’t have to go. Isn’t he just the best?!
