Yawn

Judging by the warnings I received yesterday, I set off for work with an air of entering war.

Centre Management has cooked up another one of their little evil shopping schemes that cleverly and very effectively brainwashes shoppers to blow their week's pay in a Greenwood store.

Last month they introduced their spend-$100-or-more-at-any-store-and-receive-a-$25-voucher scheme, which we took great advantage of by printing duplicate receipts for every voucher-eligible sale.

Days after that offer ended, another one started - spend $25 or more at any store and receive a box of Fardoulis chocolates free. We weren't as interested in cheating this one as it will lead to nothing more than a plethora of confectionery. I did end up claiming one box though. Jez and I nomnom'd it all whilst cooking dinner.

Anyway, today's was slightly more complicated. Centre Management staff stood around the plaza hanging out little pamphlets with $5 vouchers attached. Most shops had their own specials (which seeing as it was a 1-day sale were quite massive) but often the discounts could not be given in the absence of a voucher. So the sensible thing to do was to wander around the plaza for an hour or so and collect as many pamphlets as you can before shopping.

What was I saying?

It was a pleasant sort of busy. Nowhere as hectic as Mirjana and John predicted.

Jez had a man-date with Nathan tonight. The latter came to visit me at lunchtime for a favour of passing on the message of where the two of them were to meet, as he had left his phone at home. I was visited by an urge to give Jez the wrong time and place.

I'm totally kidding. Why would I be jealous of Nathan? I'm twice the woman he is.
