Better than food.
Rock the Party, Shopping and the Ghost from a Shoppers Past
Money refunded after some healthy shopping?
Indeed a reason to party. The next best thing to wearing or using brand newly shopped transactions.
After sugar and booze, carrying home a bagfull of stuff stinking of  a new credit card swipe is a high I love to ride.Give or take a change in order.
And when you get a good deal its an awesome"er" sensation.
Brother in law , Amit is a very lucky shopper ,deals just walk up to him and say "Take Me". I mean it ,he will find Calvin Klein shirts for  $5 and fabulous shoes for $2 ...but they are only always for him. Never for someone else. Hence, my belief in the seduction routines...
Now that sweet sister and oh ,so,Bargain magnet Bro in law have temporarily relocated to Bangalore, my only worry is who the poor deals will be hunting to latch on to.
Picture this, a deal drifter spirit floats in  a mall after lights out. Not a soul in Sight ,she's wafting over the display , breathing out through the pores of the mannequins ,and just eerily wandering about, waiting for her  living shopper to latch on to.
This wasted 5%Cashback deal drifter just whiles away her validity, a sorry smile on her translucent lips ...wanting to drown her sorrows in that bottle of Absolut on the bill board waits for an early morning shopper.
"BOO!!!"
5%Cashback almost jumps out of her non existing skin when she saw Stinkie,Lazzo and Fatso ,the Ghostly trio...
"Hey deal drifter,where did you get in from? I never saw an advertisement and whats your deal?"
"Deal,what deal? We only Boo! But why do you have paper pasted all over yourself?"Responded Fatso, Passing through that number encrusted waif.
And suddenly he shuddered and heard cash registers clang.
A wee tickle and a sense of happiness Wasted through Fatso. Giggly ,he passed through her  once more and one more clang...
The wasted Waif squealed in agony. "Noooo.... "and noting that agonizing shift of the number Lazzo took a dive and then it was was was Stinkie's  turn. ..
Dive by slowly, painfully alarming rise in %CASHBACK dive,they continued their giggly rite of passage(well, it was their first time this mall.)Until the almost wasted waif was a bright red 95%CASHBACK.
"What did you do to me?No one wanted me earlier and now, I'll be shredded to bits.I don't want to be shared. I'm a one man woman....."
So Lazzo comes up with a great idea. "Let's shrink you. That way only one hand will be able to hold you."
"Boo!",echoed his brothers in unison.
So he worked his magic while the Wasted Waif revealed her story.
"Once Upon a time, I was a bargain hunter ,always looking for deals, to save some money and shop some more. Unfortunately ,I maxed my credit cards and had no place to go...I came here and hid in the store . I didn't realize when I wasted away into a #CASHBACK advertisement."
"And now you are a #COUPON. To be held by only one ..."commented Stinkie?
In the midst of this parley walked in a dapper young man...
"I'd like to be held by him...He's a deal magnet."
And she floated into his face...
And his eyes popped open.
"F*&/$ a 95%CASHBACK coupon...Wow!!!"
He happily shopped for his wife and his entire neighborhood.
Then his eyes chanced upon the new Canon 1 D X EOS Camera worth almost $7000 ,he couldn't help but think of hos dear sister in law. (me...).
And Amit, the #Bargain attractor used that 95% #Cashback #Coupon and purchase that camera as a gift for his adorable Sister in law.
The Wasted Waif no longer felt wasted. She was totally in love with his generous heart and wowed to follow Amit on all his shopping expeditions to shower him with deals forever.
As for Lazzo, Stinkie and Fatso they went back to haunt and taunt all those who didn't use Cashback transactions.
And as for me, I'm waiting for that camera.
But the party has only just begun.
Just Shop...maybe the Wasted Waif comes to you.
