Shopping on a weekend :-(

God I hate the city centre on the weekend but since we are going on holiday soon we need some new clothes. The kids have gone off the girlfriend so I have found a quite corner of the shop and parked myself there lol

I love surfing TRF while my wife shops. Takes the 'sting' out of shopping

Certainly puts our wife's shopping expenditures in perspective.

I'm usually walking and surfing TRF. One time I knocked over a mannequin. I look for chairs now.

Isn't this why they invented the Interwebs?

No more sitting around.

Shop online and skip the shopping centers.

I too was out shopping with the wife on Saturday.

I pass the time by looking in jewelers. I always find looking through the preowned stock in independent jewelers and pawn brokers quite interesting. You never know what you might find.

LOL Everytime me and my wife goes to the mall and she goes shopping, I always stay and sit on the waiting couch or bench and usually there will be like 3 to 5 other husbands there sitting, waiting for their wives to finish shopping. LOL It is kind of awkward though, nobody is talking to each other- just holding on to whatever paperbags or plastic bags that the missus has already bought while staring blankly at the floor or to the other shoppers/passers-by inside the mall.
