Saints and Sinners Sale

On Monday mornings when the office is monopolized by Saints and NFL talk, do you hang your head in shame because you took advantage of the city being glued to their Superdome seats and took to the empty shops. Does vintage Halston make you cheer more than Marques Colston? Who said shopping wasn't a sport?
Old Navy's New Again

On Thursday Old Navy opened in Elmwood Shopping Center, replacing the void left by the closing of the Lakeside Store. As of Saturday, the new location was making a fresh, clean distinction from it's cluttered and crowded predecessor. The displays were organized and shoppers could move freely about.This change in atmosphere coupled with the appeal of their sleek holiday "sweater" television and print ads prompted me to give this big box store another shot after avoiding it for years.
