oh my gosh, i love texting!

Once again, Anne and I were overtaken by the cutsey-poo shirts at Walmart. Displayed on the shirts are phrases Anne and I use 24/7. I can't even tell you how many times in a day I say..."I love texting" and Anne probably says "OMG" (oh my gosh) like 50 bajillion times a day.


Anne is saying "Gee"

Perfect Shoes

First, I must apologize to those faithful followers for missing two days of posts. Let me begin making excuses. So, Anne is out of town, my mom is in town, I am helping to babysit 4 kids, I just started a new job and I lack discipline. Good? I thought so. Now, on to the good stuff....

You know, when I saw these I thought "finally, the shoes I never knew I needed in the color I never knew I wanted."
Perfect, just perfect.




fire breathing dragons

Do you know a dungeons and dragons lover, a Lord of the Rings reveler or fantasy fanatic? Well, if you do, then Walmart has the PERFECT gift. A smoke breathing dragon incense burner. It is the perfect addition to pretty much any home. It's mystical and magical. Just say YES! Now go get one!

Sunday Devotional - Cross Crafts

We hope you all will have a fabulous weekend. Anne and I know that ours will be good. We'll be having a special Sunday activity...foam cross crafts. Yes, you read that right. Walmart offers scads of clever crafts, and for the really spiritual (like us) they have religious foam thingys. This is one activity that the whole family can really get into.
Anne likes to have a large snifter of something while doing her cross crafts.

Wow, Anne is really good at this.

Camo Conundrum Part Deux

Once again, Anne and I felt overwhelmed at the quantity and variety of camoflauge at Walmart. It's pretty much an institution there, and we kinda like it. So much so that we wanted to create a little paradise for ourselves. These photos pretty much speak from themselves.

the bigger the better, always!

Amen to that! Bigger is ALWAYS better. Always. Anne flipped out when she saw this big ol' brandy snifter. She just had to take it home and put it to good use, while wearing her brand new camouflage blouse. Classy times.

Sweet Shades

No need to make a special trip to the optometrists office, these beauts are available at you know where, Walmart, of course. Sunglass covers are a hot new trend and they aren't just for grandma anymore. They have lots of good uses, they're not just for looking good or making your head look super tiny and your nose nearly nonexistent. Need to fake a cataract surgery to get out of your Jr. college physics exam? No problem, just throw on these babies and people will know something terrible has happened (like surgery or really bad style). They just make me so happy, can't you tell?

we're fighting

Walmart takes confrontation to a new level. The shirt fight. Yes, that's right, a fight involving graphic tees. First, Anne's shirt said "You're almost as fake as your tan", then mine gave the witty retort "Not now, I'm tanning". Take that Anne's shirt! (p.s. - I always wear this outfit while tanning, perfect tan lines, every time). We just love shirts that make a statement, especially ones that bring out our feisty personalities.

I know you are all wondering about the jeans. Hot, huh? Those are also from Walmart...duh! Where else would you find such a great looking and flattering pair of jeans? Mine are acid wash and I have no idea what the heck Anne's are. But, whatev, they turned us from notties to hotties in 2.5 minutes (the length of time it took us to weild our thighs into such tight denim).

The shoes, those are actually real Uggs, not available at Walmart. :(.

UPDATES UPDATES UPDATES

Hello friends! Anne and I have decided to change up the blog a bit. We are going to do our regular blog posts Monday thru Friday and take off the weekends. I know that it will be hard to bear during those two days, but just relax and take a reflective trip your favorite shopping center...Walmart.

Also, we would like to have reader submissions on Fridays. So find my email address on the left sidebar and send me a message if you'd like to be featured on the blog. So be sure to keep your eye out for any gems you see at Walmart. I know you've all happened across a craft, a home decor item or article of clothing that made you chuckle a little. Take a picture, we'd love to see it!

Have a wonderful Sunday!

20 in 20

Now, maybe you feel guilty for not gaining holiday weight when all your friends did. Don't worry, you'll have nothing to be ashamed of when y'all meet up at this month's book club. Anne tried on this Miss Tina velour sweatsuit and it was like a miracle, it appeared as though she'd gained 20 pounds in 20 seconds. Who knew it'd be that easy.

Walk on the Wildside

Read on to see how we feel about each of these beauties.
Anne often reflects on how much she admires the American Bald Eagle (like everyday) and it's strength, beauty and majesty. When she saw this crewneck sweater in the mistiest of greens, her heart skipped a beat "The sweatshirt of my dreams is in front of me, not at Cabella's, not at Bass Pro, but at my local Walmart, while shopping for detergent and bread." Dreams do come true. Never stop believing, never give up, never give in. You too will have your dreams fullfilled, perhaps as Anne did, walking dow the isle at her local Walmart. She'll pray for you. Wish upon a star.
Timber Wolves. I am a HUGE Twihard! (aka Twilight super duper fan!). There is one character named Jacob, and he sooo hot and has the best abs EVER! Hello! Please tell me you've seen the movie. Anyway, I now collect everything I see with wolves. And of course, when I chanced upon this beaut, it took me about 2 seconds to load it into my shopping cart, nestled right between the Little Debbies and Cokes (not diet...yuck, losers!). I had to pay a whole 2 dollars extra for the extended sizes. Dang those Walmart Prices!
I have so many good memories in White Tail Country. This one just popped right out at me. I like to think that I am a little bit like a whitetail. I am fast, beautiful and wild. It's nice to have clothes that reflect my inner self. Finally.

trashy...for realz

When we first glanced these boxer shorts it was love at first sight. It is so hard not let your imagination run wild with the implications of Oscar's face placed just so over the convenient fly and the appropriate message splayed across the buttocks.




This makes a perfect gift. So glad Walmart thought so too. Convenient To: and From: on the tag makes it so easy for giving, no need for wrapping even. Don't worry we've put this in our birthday stash, maybe it'll be for you.

Camo Conundrum

Have you ever been in the situation where you are putting on your best camo outfit and you think to yourself "if I only had a pair of camouflage shoes to complete this look". Well, problem solved. Bet you didn't check out the selection at Walmart, we did...check out these gems.
Amen.

bras...strike again!

What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of Disney's classic cartoon Bambi? A bra and panty set? Us too! In a pastel green and pink with everyone's favorite, Thumper, prominently displayed on your right breast. Hurry to your closest Walmart, these are going FAST. But honestly, in what scenario is this appropriate? We're not really sure.

Deerfoams - A Classic

Ever wish you could slip your foot into a hot loaf of bread, or a hoagie roll? Well, Deerfoams has brought us this classic slipper, and frankly it just makes us hungry. Hungry for more incredibly delicious slippers.
mmmmm...so hot!

Miss Tina

It's common knowledge that Destiny's Child was "The Best Dressed" girl group EVER! Duh! And then came the "House of Derion"- Ahhmazing, yea! I mean Beyonce's mom Tina was like the David Blaine of bedazzeled fashions- Pure Magic! I've always been devastated that Tina Knowles fashions have always been unattainable for myself and well let's face it, the majority of fashionistas....until NOW! Yea I'm serious, and yes it is magic. See for yourself.


What could this liquid satin snake skin print do for your life, slipping this baby on could change your life like it did for ours...try it yourself!

what's your sign?

I am so glad they put this on a shirt...finally. I mean because everyone's curious about my sign and then I just turn around and they know all my best personality traits. It's a quick icebreaker and everyone can know sooo much about you in a few brief seconds. Anne especially likes that *Proud* is one of her best attributes - that is definitely one to flaunt. (And yes, I normally have a double chin and surprised look on my face) - meg

Also, I am kind of jeal that Anne thought of wearing that waist cinching belt.

"Two-fer"

It almost seemed too good to be true, trendy cable knit cap in a really soft cream. Perfect for the cool winter nights. Personally I love wearing baret's and knitted caps during winter (yes even in Arizona it does get chilly). Upon further inspection I noticed it came with a pair of mittens! Yay! A two-for one, I love a good deal. OK, so here's the issue when it comes to Walmart shopping "assume nothing"! Assuming that one size fits all, not so much. Maybe they forgot to use the stretchy elasticized yarn that they typically use for the mini gloves that magically stretch...oooops!

it all started with a bra.

Yes, a bra. About a year ago I was wandering through the ladies department at Walmart with my mom when I came across a bra so ridiculous that I snapped a picture of it and sent it to my sister. And today, more than a year later as that same sister and I were wandering through Walmart we marveled at all of the ridiculous fashion wonders before us. For the next 365 days, my sister Anne and I hope to bring a smile to your face with a Walmart fashion find.

So, this is the fated bra. It disturbs me on so many levels. First, why is a fabric being used that is appealing to a girl that probably can't even read yet, let alone require a bra, or a Push-Up bra for that matter? Second, Walmart has an abundance of bras for sale like this that are insanely colorful with funky patterns or textures. Is this all lingerie or are women supposed to wear these bras under clothes? Or maybe if you buy a bra like this you want people to see it through your shirt. Fruit of the Loom...I expected more.
