Are you old enough to remember the old K-Mart?
If you do remember,do you remember the fun it was to be EXCITED about going to the BLUE LIGHT SPECIALS?
Today I went to the new store that opened there and this time I think it might be in business for a while.
Amazon took over the shopping in person and many great stores closed because SHOPPING FROM HOME became a QUICK CLICK OF A BUTTON.
We used to SPEND TIME with friends and families as we SHOPPED but now we SIT HOME in our pajamas BY OURSELVES and JUST HIT THE BUTTON.
UNFORTUNATELY that means that we don't end up SPENDING TIME TOGETHER SHOPPING and CREATING MEMORIES.
We used to have fun SPENDING TIME SHOPPING at YARD SALES, ESTATE SALES AND FLEA MARKETS to HAVE THE EXPERIENCE OF POSSIBLY FINDING things TOO HARD TO ACTUALLY FIND.
Nowadays all you got to do is go ONLINE at sights like Amazon, Ebay and many other places and YOU CAN FIND ANYTHING and EVEN MORE than you thought there even was.
Yes I understand THAT IS KINDA COOL but GETTING AWAY FROM YOUR PHONE TO GO LOOK FOR THINGS is well..... IT'S THE THRILL OF THE HUNT THAT FEELS GOOD.
And YOU GET EXERCISE TOO.
And by GOING TO YARD SALES and FLEA MARKETS then YOU GET SOCIALIZATION as you HAVE FUN TALKING JUST TO HAVE FUN TALKING IN PERSON TO A REAL HUMAN.
How about THIS YEAR YOU START TODAY ONLY BUYING YOUR GIFTS to others IN PERSON ONLY?
