Whoa. Put the phone down.

Yesterday afternoon while the kids were napping(and George was at home) I went to Target to get my weekly groceries. Since I hate doing this I decided to call my friend Ashley and chat her up to pass the time. 

While we had a lovely time chatting it can be quite hazardous shopping while talking to friend. 

I went in for the items on my list people, not these random things I brought home:

 

This pillow was on clearance for $13. For some reason, I felt like I should shove it into my cart.

 These were out of place on a shelf in the juice aisle. These even warranted a comment to Ashley about how I found them. I was at least a little conscious when I put these in the cart. And OH. MY. LORD. these things are soo good.

 

This coffee. Um, I never buy coffee for myself. I really dont even drink coffee unless its decaf. That little green snowman with peppermint buttons drew me in. It was a win though because George opened the bag last night and said it smelled like Christmas. So he can drink it :)

And lastly, I was in the line to check out when I noticed the girl in front of me had some Halloween candy. Oh yeah, Ryder has to bring some to school tomorrow. Luckily for me, there were lots of big bags at the end of the check out lane. I grabbed it and threw it in my cart.

Uh, I went back  to Target today and saw how much that 185 piece bag of candy was. $15. WHAT! I hadn't even noticed! I didn't send that entire bag to school though. I picked out about 30 pieces, put them in a clear little plastic bag sealed with a sticker. So, we now have TONS of candy, and I imagine it will only keep coming.

Do you ever do that? Go shopping while talking on the phone and buy crap you wouldnt normally buy? And not even get everything you need?! That would be why I had to drag both kids back out to Target today. Its like when you are on the phone, you find out what you truly want to buy, and you aren't swayed by the rational part of your brain that says "Uh, do you need this Kristy?"
