The picture is from my cell phone, so it's not great, but I'm guessing I was at least #200 in line. The line curves up and the warehouse is tucked in the top right corner of the picture. By the time I got into the warehouse, this was the scene:
CHAOS!!! There were hundreds of people in a pretty small space, all trying to sort through the bins of clothes. To top it off, there was no air conditioning in the room, only fans blowing. I started to notice this after about 15 minutes, when I wasn't the only one sweating like crazy! I'm surprised I did find a swim top for my sister and a couple of tank tops for me. I got in line at about 8:45, and didn't leave that line until 11:00!!! The worst part of it all was when they said the 50th person in line could get their order for free. They started counting back, and I was 49! I couldn't believe it. So after it's all been said and done, I'm glad I went just to know what it was like, but sorry Heidi, I am NEVER going back! To me, it wasn't worth getting a good deal!

Hey Natalie! Congrats on your internship! Sounds like it was great experience. I love looking at your scrapbook pages! I have stolen some of your ideas :) Yeah my books are 10x8. It's really a great size! and the best part is that 100 pages is only about 1 inch (or less) thick!
Oh what did you get?!! I went at about 1:30 and it wasn't nearly as crowded, but you could tell the masses had already gone through! :) I am so happy for you that you got your stuff free. How rad is that!!
This is hilarious! I love it! I'm glad you took some pictures for those of us who didn't go. I feel like I experienced the chaos and I wasn't even there. Ha ha.
Natalie I found your blog and am adding it to to my blogger list. How exciting that you finished your intership and got an A! I am so jealous. Well, see you in a couple weeks I can't believe summer is almost over.
