Retail therapy and posh cakes

Today we went out to the shops because Eden wanted to look for something to wear to a party that she is going to in a week or so. We had a little list of what she needed and decided which order to visit the shops we wanted to look in so that we didn't walk too far or cover the ground too many times.
As I usually only ever go shopping for necessary items, I never bother to look in most shops and I have certainly not been to the new ultra posh and extremely expensive shopping centre that was opened two years ago. That is, until today. We were looking for New Look clothes shop and it is in the middle of the shopping centre but the biggest problem with this is that we had to go past the poshest cake shop I have ever seen!
I know that Emma is particularly fond of cakes and this would 'blow her mind', so if she wants to come down and stay with me for a few days I could take her there and treat her to tea. BUT she would need to let me know well in advance because I kid you not, these cakes are not only beautiful but they are very, very expensive. Eden and I stood looking in the window at the glorious array which knock Greg's into a cocked hat! Finally we tore ourselves away with a promise that if we both lost a lot of weight, we would go back and treat ourselves.
We eventually got into New Look and looked around their sale items but it looked like a lot of very expensive rubbish. I don't think that any of the junk they had in the sale had ever been on sale in the store, if it had been they would have closed down because no-one in their right mind would ever buy that tat.
Eden did eventually get what she wanted but not in the posh shopping centre, it was in one of the more modestly priced stores. It just goes to show that if you look around you can usually find a bargain that doesn't cost a fortune.
