discounted courses de Noël
It's bientôt Christmas and every year, every last week of November, the supermarket Leclerc gives 50 percent off on toys and this year's treat falls on a Sunday - today. We don't usually wait for this day to buy gifts for x-mas as I and Séb have already witnessed some stupid fights among customers because of this. People sometimes tend to forget they're humans and act like some wild animals fighting over prey.
But yesterday, Séb told me that that could be exciting and we should give it a try, that we should go to the supermarket and see if we could put or hide toys behind other goods such as dog croquette so that today, we wouldn't need to squeeze ourselves into densely packed toys section. Uh-uh, I wasn't really keen to the idea since I know there are caméras de surveillance everywhere, I didn't want to look ridiculous. "So what?, we're just putting toys aside for tomorrow. It might not work but it's worth a try!", he said. "Yeah, I know, mais quand même..., I answered. So, in the end, he didn't insist and just decided to do it alone, haha! Bon courage!, I told him.
And today, as I write this, am having my breakfast, Clémentine's still sleeping and it's been 30 minutes that Séb & Miko left for the supermarket. (Ah yes, early birds catch worms). Séb even put the alarm clock on to be able to be there when the doors open. About two minutes ago, he called up to tell me that they have already paid for the toys. Hehe. He said that apparently, there were other people who thought of doing the same thing since there were about 15-20 toys behind dog foods, haha! And that as usual, there were gendarmes in the supermarket, well in case...
*******
Séb and Miko just arrived and handed me the receipt, paying E86 instead of E172. Ah! now I realized, his ideas are sometimes worth considering, haha! (kidding ^-^)
