An interesting thing happened last night at our house. My 11-year-old daughter and my almost 26-year-old daughter went shopping together. The weird thing is that one of them lives in New Jersey and one lives in Texas. But nonetheless, they went shopping together and appearantly found some great bargins on sale at Limited Too! Now I heard Miss Em chattering on the phone to someone and just assumed it was Jen - they do that alot…talk, talk, talk, talk. I wasn’t paying any attention to the conversation at all and probabaly would have caught on much quicker had I listened more carefully.
After Jen and Em hung up, Jen called me or maybe Em gave me the phone, or maybe Jen was talking to her dad and he gave me the phone - totally besides the point. But I ended up talking to Jen and she told me she just bought Em some clothes. Cool, I thought - hope they fit. Hope it’s something Em will wear to school - another thought. Boy you’re brave buying something for an 11-year old without their approval… the thoughts rambled on.
But you know, these girls are pretty smart. Who needs the mall to have a good time, to find a bargin, or to spend a little cash?? Not my girls - now that they’ve discovered the “Wish List” online! Seems all Emily had to do was go online to her favorite store and pick out some cute fashions. Jen was also online at the same time and checking out Emily’s outfits from her wish list. Together they made their selections and purchased with the help of a discount coupon! So the purchase was made in New Jersey, the coupon came from El Paso, Texas, and the outfits will be shipped to Winchester, KY! Now that’s just way too cool! Technology - keeping families together once again!
