My Favorite Store … no comments
Here’s a little home made commercial for TJ’s, my favorite grocery store, filmed right here in San Francisco. See, if commercials were cute like this they wouldn’t be so bad to watch.
Twisted Knickers … no comments
It’s usually one of my boyfriends that get my knickers in a twist, but since the boyfriends are scarce, I’ve got to find other things to get upset with these days.
Shopping online usually does the trick. Between the shopping transaction online and the bank transaction it never fails that something goes wrong. I love the idea of shopping online. I know what I want. I’ve done my research. All the variables are taken into account. Usability + Affordability = Purchase. I don’t have a buggy salesperson in my face trying to sell me something I don’t want.
(Salespeople hate me because I’m not a true capitalist shopper – I don’t buy just to buy. I have no empty space to fill.)
Anyway, I like shopping online. I don’t have to get dressed or brush my teeth. I don’t have to put gas in the car. I don’t have to deal with a crowded store. Unless I want to do all that stuff, and then I do.
Anyway, today was a major fiasco in my lifetime of online shopping experiences. It’s not worth going into details other than that it involved amazon.com + wellsfargo + double billing = a one thousand dollar overdraft.
It’s a big Why me? Oh Lordy, why me?. We all know the answer to that now, don’t we?
