Sometimes I have this almost irresistible urge when I go shopping to…….
- Throw my trash on the floor.
- Remove labels from the potting plants and throw them on the ground or mix them up-just for fun.
- Set plants on top of other plants or lay them on their side to see if they are hardy enough to survive.
- Remove one plant out of a 4- pack to replace the one I lost at home. The owners will be happy to share with me.
- Push products around on the shelf to reorganize the stock or better yet, knock them over. The “stockers” need something to do.
- Run full speed around the store, play hide-in-seek with or climb on the merchandise. It would be so much fun to be a kid again.
- Open a bag of candy and taste it to see if I want to buy it.
- Talk really loud on my cell phone while I am shopping so that everyone will know I when I am arriving home for supper or what I am buying in the grocery store.
- Better yet, I will wait until I get to the counter and the clerk is waiting on me. They won’t mind cause they are chatting with another clerk and will not notice.
- Call the store at 2 AM just in case someone is there to answer my questions. That way I won’t bother them during regular store hours.
- Remove the tags on a product before returning it and rip the box. The next customer will be delighted to have it already out of the box.
- See how many pens I can collect to add to my stash at home.
It almost makes me blush to think about it and I would be so embarrassed with myself! At least I know how not to be!
