Vacation


Yesterday was our first day back from vacation. The whole city emptied out this past week. Either to Florida or New York. The two most popular places.
Now vacations over and its back to work!
When I got to school I was bombarded by a bunch of energetic high school girls.

"Devorah, I have SOOOOOO many HP stories for you....."
"SOOOOO, I have an AMAZING HP story."
"You'll NEVER believe what happened to me. It was SOOOOOO HP!"
"My whole vacation was JUST SOOOOO HP!"
I MUST tell you this SOOOOO CRAZY HP story!
(Its a good thing I stocked up on SOOOOO many more laffy taffies.)

They were all shouting at once....
"So my phone started ringing.....the airline didn't know.... that the grocery store was closed so the train flipped over.....suddenly sirens started blaring...... I thought I lost my bag...HP, You should have seen her face.... I thought I was going to faint..... then the tree fell right on top of the car...... I ran straight in to a glass door......"

"Whoa Everyone one at time!"

SOOO here's story #1:
A twelfth grader told me this story that happened to her and her friend while shopping. (what else do high school girls do on vacation)

Ruti a twelfth grader was shopping with her friend Brachi. Loaded down with skirts, dresses, tops, and sweaters, they headed to the dressing room. After trying everything on and buying nothing, they left.
"Lets just leave it there on the chair. We don't have to clean it up." Ruti told Brachi.
Walking out of the dressing room Brachi turned to Ruti and said.
"You know Ruti, it will only take a few minutes. Lets make a Kiddush Hashem and clean up."
Ruti agreed and they turned back into the room to clean up.
Picking up the last dress from the chair they saw non other then Brachi's cell phone!

IT'S AL HP!

On Sale


Mrs. Baum was marrying off her son and wanted to buy herself a new dress for Sheva Brachos. Sunday afternoon Mrs. Baum called a friend to invite her to go on a shopping spree at the mall in search for a new dress.
Hopping from store to store she finally found a dress she absolutely loved. It was perfect!
After trying it on she saw the price tag. It was two hundred dollars, way out of her budget. Disappointed, Mrs. Baum hung it back on the hanger and headed for the next store. While she was shopping she couldn't find anything and decided to go back to the other store and just buy the expensive dress.
They headed back to the store and discovered it had closed for the day. She was really upset at herself that she didn't buy it before.
Empty handed the two left the mall and headed for home.
The following week Rabbi Baum saw that his wife was upset that she didn't get the dress. He offered to go with her back to the mall to buy it.
When they got to the store Mrs. Baum made a bee-line to the dresses. In front of her was her dress, with a tag that said ON SALE: Sixty Dollars!

COSTCO


My family's favorite store is Costco -my brother has a mini Costco in his house.
My sister-in-law usually does her Costco shopping on Mondays.
This week my brother told my sister in-law she should go on Sunday. Shabbos Hagadol my sister-in-law and brother are having A LOT of guests. Listening to her husband (that's what a good wife does) she went on Sunday.
When she got to Costco she saw that this might not of been the best day to come- THE PLACE WAS PACKED!
She always enters by the exit, because they have their flyers with the coupons there. (a little backwards) As she was entering a worker came over to her.
"You looking for a flyer?" she asked
"YUP!" she answered.
"I'm sorry, but were all out of them." she said.
My sister-in-law smiled, muttered under her breath "its all hp", and went to go get a wagon. There were only four wagons left. As she started her shopping she saw in the wagon was a new flyer that had all the coupons still in it. Looking through the flyer she saw that the coupons expired THAT DAY!
After she finished her shopping she compared her filled wagon with the flyer. EVERYTHING THAT SHE BOUGHT WAS ON SALE!!!!!
