Retail Therapy

Shop 'til you drop
Is that what they say?
Some retail therapy
Really is the only way

To give you a buzz
When your feeling down
Try on something different
Only to look like a clown

A size 10 fits perfectly in one shop
Then a 12 in another
Go to a little boutique
And an 8 is no bother

Why can't all sizes be the same
In every single shop
All part of the marketing ploy
I think it's a load of plop!

I like to find a bargain
While rooting through the rails
But I won't be shopping in Primani
As it always looks like a jumble sale

Perhaps some new boots!
But sssshhhh don't tell the other half
I'll hide them in the wardrobe
Until he sees them and says "d'you think I'm daft?"

Oh I do like a good shop
But certainly not for the food
A little bit of retail therapy
Does me the world of good.

*apologies for the unsatisfactory rhyming using the word plop

Might join you! Have fun and your right sizing is pants!! πŸ˜˜πŸ’—

It's been a while for me (and I don't enjoy it half as much these days!), but I'm hoping for a day-trip before Xmas... πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘—πŸ‘˜πŸŽ€πŸ‘œπŸ’„β˜•πŸ»πŸπŸ πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

I love retail therapy πŸ‘Ό

Random sizing from shop to shop drives me BONKERS too! Love a good retail session though - it purges the soul (my excuse) πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‰πŸ˜˜

@sjw @MrsS @leelee101 @sarahgamal @Fly10 thank you all. Had a lovely time, although I think when the shops stock fashions you wore the first time around its time to bail out. But I did get some nice new boots!! Tut tut. 😘😘😘😘

@eddie12309 I'm telling! πŸ˜‚πŸ‘’πŸ‘’
