Weather influences shopping

Mine, anyway. Our ten-year-old iron stopped working properly today, so I went down the hill to get another one. I went to Longs Drugs first and only found about five selections. That didn’t seem broad enough, so I started out of the mall to go to the local hardware store to see what they had.
While I was inside the mall the skies opened up. It had been bright and sunny when I headed inside, so I didn’t bother grabbing my umbrella. Mistake. It was pouring buckets when I started back out, so I said “Screw it,” went back into Longs and bought a Black and Decker iron for about $20.
If I’d had the umbrella I’d have passed it up.
