    A SUPER LONG time ago in a mall far away...was my first BF that I remember going out in the wild.

     

    My mom, sisters, and I went to Denny's (they were the only place open back then) at I think 3am.  We had all the flyers all over the table and were making our game plan.  Stores opened at 7 back then and it was early.  

     

    KB Toys still existed so that was our first stop, since we still had littles.  The Furby craze was going on and they had some.  Folks were yelling and pushing trying to get one.  Some man looked me in the eye, grabbed my shoulders and said "Ready?"  I said "Go!"  and he literally shoved me through the crowd, I grabbed two and he pulled me back out.  He got one and I got one.  Never saw him again.  Was being offered hundreds for the one I had.  

     

    Thank you random man for helping me get my little brother his gift that year.

    I had a Furby story at Kaybee Toys as well. I arrived early and saw the line was too long so went across the parking lot to wait for Target instead. Turned out that someone had put super glue in the locks to the toy store and they didn’t open until noon that day. They had to have a locksmith open the doors. I got my Furbys at Target that year by being first in line there because the line at Kaybee was too long 

  2. I remember one year Walmart had a nice Tv on sale but I couldn’t be there right at opening so I figured there was no way I was going to get one.  By the time I was able to make it there about an hour later they were gone do I finished getting the other items I needed and headed for the register. In the middle of an aisle was the TV I wanted. Someone had abandoned one and I was able to get it after all

    I have resisted the Airpod craze for years and years. First because I have to have earbuds with those cushions and the original airpods just weren't comfortable to me. However, my hubby asked for a pair last year and I got him the new Pro version on BF at Walmart. He doesn't ask for much specifically so I was thrilled I actually had some guidance and jumped on it. I never tried them until a couple months ago when I didn't have my pair on me while we were traveling so he let me use his - and I was blown away. Seriously how have I missed these in my life? Or was it my other headphones were just that bad??? 

     

    So I am going to be looking to snag some Airpod Pro's this year - unless anyone has a recommendation for another pair that sounds even better? I'm gonna be honest - I have used cheap buds all my life and thought they were just fine - then I tried the airpods and realized that is exactly what those other cheapies were - fine. I want spectacular. 

     

    Apple just released the over the ear headphone type AirPods. You may have to find a store to try those out too
