Good Will Gone Wrong.....she wanted me to give them to her...

I do alot of thrift shopping... Or treasure hunting!  I do alot of Ebay selling
and get many items from thrift stores.  The Bible says that a good life
consists of this:   That you walk humbly with your God and enjoy your
work!!!     Thank you God, I really do enjoy this work!!!

However, Goodwill shopping has gone crazy!!

 Last time I went to Goodwill, I saw some pans on the shelf.  I put the pans in my cart and kept shopping.  After some time of shopping a lady comes running up to me.  " I have gone all over looking for pots and pans, and you have gotten to them first.
I have gone to every Goodwill and this is the only one that has them, and you have gotten them!"   '-Okay'........I continue shopping.  I knew that she wanted
me to give them to her....

   As I am shopping  I now hear her going to all the customers in the store saying how she needs pots and pans and I have some in my
cart.   I eventually got a bit aggravated, walked up to her, and shared with her
that the Dollar General sells pots and pans..........was that so wrong.....?

Then today, I AM IN THE CHECK OUT LINE.   Get it?   I am CHECKING OUT!  PURCHASING THE ITEMS IN MY CART.   The lady in front of me who is actually in
the process of pulling out her money to pay for her purchase.....turns to me and says...
"Oh, are you going to buy that?"  She is pointing to merchandise IN MY CART, as I am next in line to CHECK OUT!  I said, 'yes'.   "Oh, really?  Because
I would like to get that for my daughter."  Me...."Oh".    She says, not giving up...."How much is it?"  I answer.   She persists, "Is it full?"  She wanted me
to give it to her......!

......COME ON PEOPLE!!!!  I am just trying to shop here!!!!!

 That lady leaves.   The lady BEHIND ME, points to some jewelry that I am getting that is on the checkout counter...."Are you getting that?"  Me...."Yes"

She continues, "Why? What are you going to do with it?"
.......she wanted it and persisted ......she seemed indignant that I was going
to get those items.......  She wanted me to give it to her.....!

Keep in mind, she had already done her shopping and
she was in the CHECK OUT line!
MAN!   It is getting so aggravating!    I saw this lady, probably in her early
60's.  She was sitting on one of the chairs that was for sale.   I said, "Enjoying
your shopping?"  (I thought she was tired.)  She said, "Oh yes,  I  just sit here,
and every time they bring a new cart of items out, I run up and get to the cart
before everyone else!"   Evidently, she was there with a few friends who were also doing the same thing.    It was like a shark feeding frenzy when a new cart
of items came out!   I decided to go in the opposite direction.

I would have sat down in a seat also, but I figured if I did, some lady would undoubtedly want me to give it to her.........
