It was a zoo. Yes, WalMart is frequently a zoo, but when the main aisle heading in has a display down the middle of it full of back-to-school items so that there's barely room for a cart to get past on each side, except that everyone needs to stop there to look for things, you have absolute chaos. This took its toll on Gretchen and I, although we did manage to collect almost everything we needed.
Phew!
