But once I get a look at the Cinnabon line, I can usually march right by. Though I might well end up at Auntie Anne's Pretzels instead!Peggy Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062998960273261177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745625607350497891.post-56595871020206753652010-11-27T06:51:27.751-05:002010-11-27T06:51:27.751-05:00Peggy,

I was also armed with many a coupon. I was hoping it would be a fun thing to do. <br /><br />It. Wasn't. <br /><br />The mall was crowded, with some pushy-shovey people in the mix. You'd have thought the store would be in tip-top shape. I found that the clothes racks should have had no size signs as they didn't seem to apply anyway (in other words, I found more size 2 items in my much larger size than the one that would fit me!). <br /><br />I'll take the extra boxes (which can be recycled!) any day. You forgot to add one thing to your pro/con list -- while shopping at home you're never tempted to buy a Cinnabon! :-)<br />ChristineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
