Up at 7-30am watch news and weather on TV and head off to IHOP (DW is so excited !......doesn't take much...eh?). 2 breakfast Samplers,1 Buttermilk Pancakes,1 Pigs In A Blanket,Juice ,coffee,and milk.Absolutely delicious!
We stop at the post office for stamps and send of the postcards (even although we know we will arrive home before them!).The next stop is The Premium Outlets.DH picks up some polo shirts from Levi's for $7 and then onto the Disney Store where we buy 2 T Shirts,and a Xmas ornament.DH is astonished when DW walks past the fudge shop without buying any!
DW is really excited because we are heading to her favourite mall ,Festival Bay.The first store we go to is our all time favourite...Steve and Barry's. We can't believe the stuff you can get for $7 !

DH buys 2 polos ,DD buys a winter jacket and DS gets a polo, a pair of khakis and a pair of jeans for just over $40 !!

We have a Steve and Barry's in Madison Wisconsin. The store baggles me too.

Walmart is always cheaper, it is the largest chain store in the U.S. Just don't buy meat.
