Yesterday, we ran about a million errands that we've been putting off. One of those errands was going to the mall so I could use my coupons at Victoria's Secret. (Hey, it was for FREE underwear. What girl couldn't pass that up?) The salesgirls at this particular Victoria's Secret are exceptionally obnoxious and pushy, so I usually don't shop there. This time was no exception. One lady complimented me on my earrings and then proceeded to tell me that their line of PINK sweatpants was on sale right now and did I want to try them on? She said "They are really hot right now. Ashlee Simpson wears them." Lady, if you are trying to sell me something, that is certainly not the way to do it. Do I look like I care what Ashlee Simpson wears? Uh, no. I think she got the hint that I wasn't interested by the way I politely but firmly said "Uh, that's OK. No thanks." I mean, I know she was just trying to do her job, but I just found it funny that she'd think telling me Ashlee Simpson wears those sweatpants is going to make me want to buy them.
