Day 168 - Momma Goes Shopping

The Title 9 Warehouse Sale - my favorite sale of all time.  I've been to maybe 4 of them.  You never know when they are going to happen.  Usually a postcard announces the arrival of the sale, this year, I saw it on Facebook, since I'm a "fan" of T9 on FB.  The last one I went to was about 18 months ago and lately like when I was shopping for a bathing suit, I had been wishing the sale was coming up.  The name "Title 9" is a reference to the legislation?  in the 70s that made sports more accessible to women.  Hence, the clothing is geared toward fitness and active lifestyles.  Today was the day.  I actually went to the sale twice today.  Once, with Haley at the opening of the sale.  I knew exactly what I wanted and where on the floor to find it.  There were a few items that I can only get at this sale for the price I'm willing to pay.  I got what I needed, tried it on, and got in line to buy it before the long lines started.  These are not long lines like, "oh too bad, there are a few people in front of me and I'm going to have to sit here for 5 minutes." These are lines that can take an hour to get through and I didn't have that kind of time with kindergarten pick-up. 

After Hannah was picked up, we headed back down to the sale.  My girls were troopers.  They were rewarded with time at the playground in Magnuson Park which is right where we park for the sale.  This is a regular playground trip for us when we go to this sale.  It is a really fun playground with many different play areas for different ages of kids.
