Flip-Flop Frenzy

Ashley and I braved Old Navy at 8am today for the $1 flip-flop sale. It was pretty much a madhouse and the store sold out of flip-flops in 45 minutes. I sure was glad to have Ashley with me who was a big help holding flip-flops and keeping our place in line. It was a fast and furious feeding frenzy, but I wasn't too stressed because on some level it was pretty humorous.

It truly reminded me of a fish farm, where you have piles of fish squirming around in a little pond going for a handful of fish food someone has thrown into the water. In this case, the fish were a bunch of girls/women grasping for flip-flops (food) being thrown down to them from Old Navy workers standing on ladders. (I skipped this part and just went for the selection of flip-flops that were more easily accessible in boxes on the floor.)

In the end, Ashley and I came out unscathed with 19 pairs of flip-flops! This was pretty moderate considering that we split them among me, Ashley, Paige, and my sister Debby. It didn't even compare to the 25-30 some girls were buying for themselves. CRAZY!!
