Well I still do it very often(since any of you who know my mom KNOWS she LOVES to shop)
What I remember most and what has stuck with me for most of my life is my mom teaching me HOW to shop. She taught me how to look for bargains, sales, and sometimes when something is cheaper, it really isn't. The only bad thing is that has made me a little anal. I love the feeling when I am at Smith's and I scan all of my groceries, I wait to the end to run my fresh values card because it is almost orgasmic when the total keeps going down from the savings. I know- cheap thrill. I will go to 3 different stores to get the same thing cheaper. I have been better about that though since the price of gas is more than my mortgage. I have learned then stores to go to and the ones to STAY AWAY FROM!
I thank my mom for teaching me this. I have even taught a few people the little tricks of the trade.
Thanks mom!
(I don't think that sounded right using my mom in the same answer as the word orgasmic-LOL!)
