The One that Got Away...then got got!

So right before I left New York for North Carolina for Christmas I was shopping in Urban Outfitters.

They were having this INSANE 50% off of already marked down clothes sale.

I came across this lovely yellow dress, got to the line and just didn't feel like waiting.

The line had like a million gazillion people in it and I already had to pee.

So I put it down, left, found a bathroom, got a manicure, ate a burger and went back for it.

ONLY...it had vanished! Devasted I combed through piles and piles of sale items when I noticed a girl coming out of the dressing room with my dress!!! She put it back...I grabbed it..and this time stood patiently in line.
