When you have to go you have to go. Sometimes it’s just what you need and other times it’s just a pain in the, you know. A huge retailer is making news all over the world. TJ Maxx is allegedly causing women to rush to the bathroom. And not number one.
Not sure why it’s just women but the Daily Mail says there is apparently science behind this. It all started because a woman named Shelby took to a social media site to let her followers know that she experiences the urge to go potty every time she goes to the retail giant. Over 4.1 million people responded and many of them said they have the same experiences.
Why does this happen. The Daily Mail breaks it down. They claim it could be because of the fluorescent lighting. The lighting in the store relaxes some people and when you become relaxed it signals to your brain to let “things” go. It even has a name, some people call it the “laxative” effect. This can be good! Or this could be bad. It all depends on the need or want of the situation.
Personally, Lowe’s does it to me every time. I think it’s all that fresh lumber that gets to me. To learn more about this , Buzzfeed also has a story on it, you can get details right here.
North Carolina Town Voted One Of Best Small Towns For Shopping
USA Today recently had their readers vote for their “10 best” campaign. One of those categories was “The Best Small Towns for Shopping”. And one North Carolina town made the top 10 best small towns for the shopping list! I’ve never been to this mountain town, so a visit may be in order. Summer is the perfect time to travel and enjoy the mainly open air shopping districts on this list. I’m surprised that I have only been to one of these towns (and it’s actually the farthest one away…go figure!) But I have bookmarked multiple of these that I can’t wait to visit. Shopping and historic towns are some of my favorite things.
It’s not too late to plan your summer getaway and each of these small towns offers a shopping lover’s paradise! Especially if you are in to unique and or handmade items. Some of these are mountain towns there could be a good winter destination as well. As long as you don’t mind the cold that is. We’ve got multiple areas of the country covered, so whether you want to fly or drive one of these is doable!
