Personal Narrative-Target's Dollar Spot

Decent Essays
Wow! We're midway through January already, crazy right? For my family this time has passed super-fast seeing that we had our rainbow baby 2 1/2 months ago. With the new addition here at the house we've spent many days and nights like zombies. The house is usually in order and everything is in its place. I can admit that since having a newborn here with a 5 year old it's gotten out of control. Sometimes things make it back in the pantry, and sometimes they don't. With all that being said I needed to organize that eye sore that we call a pantry, and I didn't want to spend a ton! Unfortunately being based in Alaska we don't have stores like back in the lower 48. Target's Dollar Spot is definitely the answer, and I love the outcome! I purchased

    From an interview that didn’t go too well, to an interview that helped me grow, my customer service professional informational interview took place at a Company that didn’t hire me a year prior. I was given the opportunity to talk to, as well as learn from, Nate Martinson, a sales coach at Capital One, here in Saint Cloud.

    The Dollar store I went to was the one located in Arlington Plaza on Greenville Blvd. The experience was very interesting because I usually go to the dollar store for birthday and holiday supplies only. I first went to the back to see what they had in the freezer. The selection was a lot more than I expected, but it lacked in fresh fruits and vegetables. Although there were a lot of canned vegetables, they had a lot of sodium in them.…

    Managing to break free from my mother’s grasp, I charged. With arms flailing and chubby legs fluttering beneath me, I was the ferocious two year old rampaging through Costco on a Saturday morning. My mother’s eyes widened in horror as I jettisoned my churro; the cinnamonsugar rocket gracefully sliced its way through the air while I continued my spree. I sprinted through the aisles, looking up in awe at the massive bulk products that towered over me. Overcome with wonder, I wanted to touch and taste, to stick my head into industrialsized freezers, to explore every crevice.…

    As a kid, I had no responsibilities other than school, and sometimes sports. I was fortunate enough to not have to do chores, or have a job at an early age. I essentially, could manage my time how I pleased; playing Xbox, baseball, being on my phone whenever, as long as I kept my grades up and wasn't in trouble. My parents gave me this privilege, because they knew what a well-behaved kid I was, and somehow trusted that my Dad’s work ethic would eventually just naturally rub off on me when the time was right. Although my experience sounds great, I felt empty, because I wasn't doing anything productive.…

    The Trip to the Grocery Store I haven’t seen him in weeks or maybe even months, I thought as I glared across the small distance between where I was standing and my dad’s car. With my One Direction CD clutched in my hands, I started to close the distance by walking towards his car. I opened the door and slipped in, and then he started to drive to the grocery store. At the time I was under the illusion that my dad would be even slightly happy to see me, but no.…
