Hints From HeloGreeny

Some helpful hints when shopping for clothes.

* take a portable battery operated fan so the sweltering dressing room will stay somewhat comfortable under the strain you are experiencing.
* When you are not having luck finding the clothes that fit "like a glove",
change dressing rooms with a new armload and it seems this improves one's luck.
*take a small mirror with you to check out the "back view". You don't want to ask a stranger to give you a report on it for you. That opens up a whole can of worms...
* Try on the largest size of the jeans and pants so you can save time not bothering with the smaller sizes if that pair works. However this may produce fits of anger if one expects the smaller size to have fit and one finds the larger size is needed instead. Conversely, if the smaller size fits- do a little dance.

Some other helpful hints for grocery shopping .

* It is so true- don't go down the Easter candy aisle if you are hungry. Remember the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs?! Gah!
* Always insist on double bagged liquor and allow nothing else in the bag with it- such as a gallon of oj or your garage will smell like rum for days and the cat will act a little funny PLUS you can't open and enjoy the bottle of Mojito mixer you bought especially for Sunday.

Oh, alright! I lived it, it's true. Therefore it is good advice.

John, I might if it was online since all newspapers are going belly up.
