On Day Eight I actually enjoy Christmas Shopping…so tell me, how did that trip to Mall Hell Go for you?
I went Christmas Shopping last night.
To be more specific, I gave my husband a list of things I wanted and we went to the best store in the world…
We went to Archie McPhee’s.
Archie’s is home to wonderful things like Crazy Cat Lady and Jesus Action Figures and Pirate Lunchboxes
It is well stocked with things like zombie and pirate finger puppets and bacon and egg bandages.
In other words, it is a big piece of heaven on earth.
Where else would you stand patiently and wait for your turn to check out a shelf full of things like mini-flying monkeys, screaming pickles and Angry Mob Play Sets?
I can tell you this much, there aren’t many stores you can go to right now that are crowded full of holidays shoppers where you can hear people laughing and having a good time as they take their turn to get from one aisle to the next.
I worked in a Mall for eight billion long punishing, unforgiving years. I haven’t enjoyed Christmas Shopping for years…that is YEARS.
Last night at Archie’s I had a good time, I could easily order from a catalog or go on line- but if you can- do what I am going to do from now on-stop in for a visit because its fun and during these unfunny times we could all use a few good laughs.

Oooooooooooo!!!! Let’s see… should I get the flinging pirate shooter or a coconut bra?
I can’t believe, Anita Marie, that they did not have your Fiji Mermaid…..
I’m going for the bacon wrist watch.
See you at the check out counter Lori!
ps I asked for one too, however they did have Seahorses so I was happy.
Sort of
i am so jealous! i want a store like that!
Oh, my gosh! I spent about 45 minutes in that website and have many laughs. Thank you so much for the fun. I’ll absolutely go to that store next time I;m in Seattle.
Its always time well spent, and I am speaking from experience.
