It's a human craze. A never ending maze. Can't get out. Some may shout. Need that crap. A closet can't have a gap. Can't have space. Crap you must embrace. Where am I going? You'll catch on with this ode showing.
When words fail.
Stick to the sale.
That catches the eye.
Give colorful font a try.
Some brings cheer.
Some brings fear.
Don't say it in black.
It doesn't have the knack.
A racist sale?
That's a fail.
Don't say it in blue.
Could go boo hoo.
Say it in yellow.
It's far more mellow.
Will remind of sun.
They'll see it and think fun.
Sale! Sale! Sale!
Come hit the trail.
Our yellow font glows.
Show up in rows.
Buy! Buy! Buy!
Off the shelves it will fly.
And if you run out.
We take credit, no doubt.
Keep jobs at play.
Buy what's on display.
It keeps society rolling
Plus weight loss through strolling.
Perks of the sale.
Crap that won't fail.
At least until it does.
Then buy new, just because.
An endless stream.
Makes you beam.
Makes us rich.
So go dig a ditch.
We want every cent.
Everything must be spent.
We even have sales on urns.
Never too early before death churns.
Do you fall for the shopping forever trap? Do you need more and more crap? We take what we need and get out. Don't care if sales are about. Do you fall for the color trapping too? Or maybe some catchy tune played in front of you? So many little tricks they employ. Doesn't shopping bring you joy? We'd rather go pass some gas. It sounds way more fun to our little rhyming ass.
Fill your rummer, get drunk all summer.

DeleteBut still made it!
Hank
Back to the top
DeleteOf the crop
Hank is king again
Deletebut for how long?
We shall see
DeleteIf Blue, True, or the Ninja Wannabe
That we'll see
DeleteAnd I'll raise you a Scooby Dooweeee
Not a toad
On the road
Or a chick
On a stick
Or a dog
On a hog
Or a cat
On a mat.
Just so you know
At the kitty cat show.
Game on!
No road for you
DeleteCould make it come due
Game on!
DeleteA game
DeleteSo tame
Still no win
DeleteAt your bin....
No Bora tickets for Blue
No snacks for Scooby Doo
No no no
DeleteNeed a yes to go
It all depends what mood I'm in.
ReplyDeleteIf I "Shop To Drop".
It brings pleasure sometimes.
Somehow I can't stop.
Yvonne.
That could be bad
DeleteIf spending too much at one's pad
Come and Shop Until you Drop
ReplyDeleteSales pitch not to be caught
Just a hoodwink?
Rightly it seems
Play safe best to just avoid
Hank
Avoidance is key
DeleteAs the pitches you see
Blue Sunday!
ReplyDeleteGo Blue
DeleteAnd Red too
What did I win
DeleteAnother bin?
Another shitter
DeletePatter pitter

DeleteHas their posts from 2017 that were had
DeleteDoes that on auto from their pad
JC Penney is always having a sale - don't fall for it!
ReplyDeleteI will admit t-shirts keep coming into the house...
A sale every day
DeleteSo in they just randomly stray?
As soon as we buy something we need then it goes on sale!
ReplyDeleteYep, sure seems to be the way
DeleteHad that happen at our bay
Having worked in retail, I know a real sale from the fake ones. And there are few real ones!
ReplyDeleteYep, ever so few
DeleteAlways trying to fool you
Not a shopper here
ReplyDeleteSo don't look at the sales
But some are out there shopping daily
Without any fail.
Betty
That they are
DeleteDriving their CC up far
I'm a bottom feeder:) When it hits the clearance rack, I'll take a look:)
ReplyDeletehaha at least you don't dumpster dive
DeleteThat would be true bottom and you might not get out alive
Some 'sales' aren't really sales. Buy 2 get one free and all three together cost more than when it's not on 'sale'. They trap you every which way.
ReplyDeleteThe trap sure is there
DeleteWith money in their pocket to spare
I'm with Yvonne. Depends on the mood, but more and more I say no. well...except when it comes to books. Never can have too many. (I'm back from vacay and shall try to catch up on your older posts too)
ReplyDeleteBooks sure are grand
DeleteHope you had a good vacay in your land
I don't have money to shop, shop, shop or buy, buy, buy.
ReplyDeleteProbably a good thing
DeleteDon't want them all going cha-ching
Neither do we
DeleteIn the place to be
Win it is
DeleteWith such biz
I’ve noticed some stores are having “limited time” sale all, the, time!
ReplyDeleteThat they do
DeleteDoesn't even change in view
Only when I find good clearance deals, then I stock up on things for Christmas gifts.
ReplyDeleteGood way to be
DeleteAs christmas will soon be back at each sea
50%off might entice me to take a look, sadly, I know someone in retail and she said they often retag things before a 50% off sale so you usually only get 40% off.
ReplyDeleteI need car for 50% off.. ok I can dream...haha
haha yep, they up the prices before they go down
DeleteKnew that is the way across town
Good luck with that
Although we had 25% off once where we are at
I'm not big on shopping whether on sale or not.
ReplyDeleteI'm mostly satisfied with what I've got.
Way to be
DeleteStay that way at your sea
