Polka dot prints - no matter the item (big surprise- see pea name) Printed paper- used to be scrap book paper, now more note books and wrapping paper Cardigans. Good lord, I have so many Boots Kitchen stuff- utensils, mixing bowls- anything Patterns - no matter if I want the item or not, if I see an array of patterns I am there inspecting them A certain style of top that I feel looks professional for work yet would suit my body well (not cling to stomach, not show Too much cleavage) Flip flops Scarves - preferably with prints!

I have to do my shopping online now, which really cramps my style, but in my heyday when I could get out and about it was-
majolica or transferware plates cocktail/luncheon napkins, only on markdown shaped pasta uniquely flavored tea magnetic refrigerator notepads notecards body wash and lotion

There is a brand of stonewear that I love. It's not Portmerion but it's brand isn't important. They usually have several patterns that I like but I don't want a whole set. I just want a bug coffee mug from each set. I love this line and have loved it since I sold china when I was 18! I love it so much! So getting a few nice coffee mugs I think is a good idea.

Binder clips. I practically have a collection.
Pentel gel pens, because I am a lefty and many pen inks smudge when I write.

Table linens. Oversized wine glasses. White t-shirts and button-up shirts (I check every store I go to in search of the "perfect" white tee). Can you recommend a good (international) brand for white t-shirts? I have bought several but they're all too thin and semi see-through. I want a better quality cotton I guess.

I'm still looking this year. Even the last one I ordered from Lands End was a disappointment and theirs were usually reliable. I did find a great white button up shirt from J. Crew. Women have been lamenting the too thin t-shirts for years now. Why don't manufacturers hear us?

flashlights (why I don't know!) bags (tote or otherwise) *anything* that is shiny silver or glittery silver (I'm like a moth to a flame when I see silver) notebooks containers for organization kitchen gadgets (although I hate to cook) purses (but only medium sized ones. Can't be too big or too small) jewelry (inexpensive not the "good" stuff)

They are too boxy, however, and they could stand to be a little longer. Why can't we have it all?

The home decor section and dishes. I strive to have a well decorated home, the problem is I have very eclectic taste and nothing ever seems to look cohesive!
I wanna be able to decorate like Joanna Gaines, but I don't think it'll ever happen.

If you have a source I should investigate that sells funny greeting cards online, please share!

Maybe that's the business one of us should go into. Perfectwhitetshirt.com Expand and make it into other colors for us pasty white women. To answer the question: office supplies, clearance racks for boys, craft aisles, seasonal aisles with the $1.00 toys like stickers, pencils, erasers, small balls, stampers,...
