... You turn into a sales crazed Woman
I walk into NEXT yesterday morning just before work. I see a mob of 'working' women browsing and picking clothes. 'Shouldn’t they be running to work?' – I think. But then it hits me – SALES! It’s almost like a competition in there. Pushing, squeezing, running around, searching for something valuable. After a moment the atmosphere gets to me and I too take part in that silly competition. 2 dresses pop into my eyes. I grab them. And although I feel I’m not finished yet, I realise it’s almost 9 o’clock, I should be at work!

So I move to the tills – luckily not many women decided to finish their shopping spree yet. Then I run to work thinking ‘Eh, I can always come back here and grab something nice after work’.
NEXT is so close to the station so I come back, of course. And what do I see? Almost completely emptied store. And I thought to myself, ‘gosh, I’m glad I at least got these 2 dresses I have’. Only when I was on a train it got to me: women get crazy when they see SALES sign. And I realised to my surprise, coz it never happened to me before, I was one of them now.
