Kenn at work returned from break with a GAP bag – he pulled out a striped sweater saying – “wouldn’t YOU pay $2.99 for this?” Well of course we would! So after I got out I actually went into GAP. It’s so colorless inside it’s just unappealing to me. I don’t mind the white walls etc – but the clothes generally have no color at all. The first thing I saw were the sweaters. Indeed. $2.99. Who knows why. I’m not sure I would have done more than glance at them at $35 but hey. Next to them, hanging on the very next rack, were jackets that were tagged originally at $78 but now were $24.99. What’s not to like about that? I tried on the small and then I tried on the medium. Both were ok, but the sales person thought the medium was a bit too big. Then the big decision, navy or beige. Navy is an exciting color at GAP but I suppose taupe variations are too. I decided for my own wardrobe, beige would be exciting. The good news is that they are men’s jackets so they have really cool internal pockets, like jackets SHOULD have. So yeah, I’ve now got to admit that I’ve bought something from the GAP. I’m still not getting the headsets they wear, there and at Old Navy.
I’ve become a step closer to a mall-rat. eeeks.
