Time for Friday Fragments brought to you by the fabulous Mrs. 4444 over at Half-Past Kissin' Time...show the world your bits and pieces! (minds out of the gutters, please...)
*~H and M (I know there's an ampersand in between the letters...blogger won't let me use it correctly..grrr.)....yesterday was the grand opening of the fabulosity that is H and M at the Tucson Mall. A little birdie named Meg shared with me that the store was opening at noon and freebies were being given to the first 200 shoppers in line...freebies...like $50-$300 gift cards, t-shirts, and other swag. I'm all about freebies so I scooted on over there about an hour prior opening. There's a lonely security guard at the store entrance. I'm so smooth...I got here early and am first in line....so I wait...the security guard finally (after 10 min) looks at me and smirks..then informs me that "ma'am, this is the exit today...the entrance is on level 2"...
No worries! Do I care that I stood there like a dorkopotamus for 10 mins? Nope! I've still got 50 minutes! I take the elevator up to level 2...the doors open and BAM! It's like the H and M Disco opened and not the clothing store! There are employees dancing all over the place to Kesha's "Tick Tock" song...the line (oh yes...there was a line...) was in the midst of a "domino wave"...and there was a lot of "whoop~whoop" and chanting of "H and M! H and M!" going on.
Did I mention the line? There were already over 1500 shoppers in line! No freebies for Bee! I found out that the first lady in line actually arrived the night before at 9pm. They had hundreds in line by 2:30am...thousands by store opening. It was completely insane! Needless to say, I left after the ribbon cutting and skee-daddled away from the shopper stampede.
*~Your Opinions...I would appreciate your kind assistance with a wee poll this fine Friday...any takers???
*~TGIF...For Catherine....
Have a wonderful weekend, ya'll!

that security guard would have soooo pissed me off!!!!
facebook--- i so agree.. i don't do any farms, any mafia... any games.. NONE!!!
me loooooves coffee too!!
have a great wkend!!
I am SO JEALOUS about H&M. We finally got a Sephora here, so as soon as we get H&M, I will never have to leave the state.
I am waiting for H&M, Michael's, Crate and Barrel, IKEA, and Cheesecake Factory! I heard you are getting a Hobby Lobby, though!:) I have one down the road from me and they all know me there. Oh, yeah.
I am with you on the "fluff" on facebook. I don't care if you have a new cow!!!:( I'll be your friend, though, Toots!:) Lori
Facebook is the only way I know what's going on with my extended family. I'm with you on the games though.
Now if there was a way for people to send me COFFEE via facebook...
It would not be worth it to me to get in a line up at 230 am.
I totally want to be your FB friend! I don't even know what H & M is though. Can you look beyond that?
I've never been to an H&M. I walked by one a few years ago when I visited Boston, but I don't even know what to compare it to. Is it like Kohl's? LOL @ you standing in like for awhile, though. Would've been nice if the security guard had let you know when you first got there, huh? LOL
I hate all that stuff on FB too. I 'hide' it all.
I voted on your polls.
Happy Friday!!
I am on facebook but almost never go there! I would never play those games.
ampersand? Off to grab a dictionary!
At least you were first in line at the exit.
Funny, I hear the exact same thing from almost EVERYONE that joins facebook.
It's a back off if I haven't had my coffee ... lol!
Ok that security guard was just plain RUDE, come on dude he should have told right door!
I'll be your FB friend I don't play all that crap ... what I have blogging to do ... hehe :)
Happy FRIDAY sweetie, I wish you lived by me too. I would love for you chit chat with me while I'm making these darn posters :)
I never would have thought there would be so many people shopping there on opening day! Geez!
I just can't get into facebook!
When I saw the title of your post I immediately thought of that song, "Insane in the membrane. Insane in the BRAIN!"
I used to be a Farmville addict...and then life got in the way. And then the game got too overwhelming, with the addition of beehives, dairies, stables, wineries, etc. My farm got way too crowded! I couldn't be bothered with the upkeep!
My uncle and cousins, who are city folk, play Farmville for HOURS a day. Ironic, dontcha think?
Too bad about the long line!
I've never heard of H&M. What am I missing?
Happy Friday!
P.S. I'm all over facebook. I will be your friend..I promise not to send you farmville junk and such.
{Utah-Girl Danielle, is how you will find me}
I'm having my moring coffee(actually the second cup) right now:)I'm on facebook and I'm with you about farms and others..Hope to see you there:)
I am with you on the Facebook junk! Jeeze not only my kids but my grandkids are always asking me to find some lost kitty or feed a fish..they get so said when I won't participate and I have to tell them I would actually never have time to spend real time with them if I played all those games.
One of the games my 10 and 7 year old grand daughter's play actually charges $4.00 a month to purchase stuff for their virtual pets. And yes stupid me actually bought it for them $8.oo a month automatically on my CC. I am such an idiot; why didn't I dream up that sucker game?
what is H and M? Harry and Mutt? Happy and Mad?
Is it like...um...can't think of any letter stores off the top of my head.
Darn it.
Dorkopotamus? BWAHAHA! HUG.
I love Facebook but just don't seam to have the time...sigh. I am with you on the Mafia, Farmville stuff, I have a hard time reading about people around all of that stuff!
Love the Coffee quote, I have told my kids many times "Don't even start with the whinning, I haven't even had my coffee yet!"
I am feeling old and isolated . . . I have never heard of an H&M. What kind of store is it?
The H&M story just cracks me up!!!
And I look at all Farmville people with suspicion
*sends a friend request and promptly sends 4 game requests and loads of gifts*
LMAO!
Seriously, when that stuff pops on your page... just click the x in the right corner of the post and block the app. Then you see THEM and not their game ;)It clears most of the crapola right out.
