Growing up, we had a Kings in Burley long before WalMart. I remember getting all of our school supplies there and gifts for Secret Sisters. The small town I live in also has a Kings. Yesterday I went there to get Hudson some shoes he can get on/off himself. We found "crocs" for $5.00. They also had little ankle socks for him (I've been looking all over for them.) We also bought him some Bob pj's (they were already discounted and they took an additional 50%) making them $2.25! What a deal. I came home and am in love with Kings. It's all I could talk about when Brent got home. So if you live near a Kings, go visit it today. Oh yeah, tomorrow (Sat. May 12th) they're having a free make and take it. Your kiddies get to pick out a flower, pot it, and bring it home for their Mom in honor of Mother's Day. I think I'll have to take Hudson.

I love Kings, too! We just got the greatest deal for Tameka for graduation, and instead of paying $6.00 per tray for ice cube trays (that's all we were finding at other stores!), we got ours 2/ $1.25.
Not only do they have great (and random) deals, but the smell of the stores is all the same, and it "takes me back" to all those memories you described.
Monday, when we were in King's I was telling Bentley how Grandma used to buy my school supplies there. Said Grandma thought I was ridiculous for remembering the school supplies, glad to know I'm not the only one.
I'm glad that we didn't buy school supplies at a place like Wal-Mart. All of you girls would have had nightmarish memories.
