17+ Target Trips since First Decree on 7/7, and counting

How many times have you been to Target while waiting for your Final Decree? I haven't left on a plane yet, but I counted my receipts, and I'm at about 17 trips. . .some quick, some long, some times 2 trips in a day at different locations.

What do I buy at Target? That's a silly question. . .everything. . .food, bottles, bibs, socks, PJ's, cotton-gauze T-shirts for me for HOT Taiwan, shoes, more shoes when you think you've purchased the wrong size, car seats, toys, a voice recorder to tape the responses at SLC to our questions. (Yes, we'll videotape too!)

Target Highlight: Purchased a Britax Marathon Car seat on "Clearance" for $229. Returned it because I found a pattern I liked better. When I was at the counter, the kid said, "You know this is only $69 now?" (or something close to that). I said, how much? Can I buy it back? He said it had to go out to the floor, but then another kid walked up and I asked if he could take it out, and he said sure. . .out went the kid and the car seat, oh, and let's not forget my husband, who I had stalking him down the aisles so we could put the car seat right back in our cart to purchase for a price I've never seen associated with Britax. Pretty good shopper, I am, huh?

I love Target. . .In fact, need to go get a bottle brush and baby meds soon! You see, 17 Plus, will become something like 20 trips. Proud? I don't know. . .a little embarrassed perhaps.
