Somewhat funny. I had wondered, since it was a Walmart store, why you had the Kmart logo for your picture. The guy up in the rafters with a bull horn, I could picture that with no problem. Some store managers do get a bit frantic. :-) Good writing. Karen

This is an amusing anecdote for the contest. I wish you well with it. Your account brings out the sense of confusion, and those last couple of lines restare us to the sense of normality.

I got a good laugh from this, better than his wife, I think. It would be something funny to happen at Wal-Mart and I would have loved to be there to see it. The conversation was real and flowed well.

This contest entry was fun to read. Walmart has made many small businesses close and that's not a good thing. I enjoyed reading and good luck with the contest. 
Tony began to laugh so hard he sat down on a kitchen chair holding his gut as tears rolled down his face. (you can omit 'down' it's understood)

This was entertaining, and I couldn't imagine who was behind the voice until the end, which made it more engaging and left the funny reveal with the cherry on top.

Great stuff! Best, JohnC

I think America lost out with the loss of the "blue light specials" ha ha. I think you did a creative job combining that with Walmart. And you also gave I don't know how many people the idea to go crawling into the ceiling tiles with a bull horn! Good entry for the contest. Julie.

Chuckling here. I'm old enough to remember the mass hysteria caused by those darn "Blue Light Specials" -- and inevitably I'd end up buying the item, at significant savings ~ if only I'd needed two left gloves or a knife that could slice tomatoes to thin you can read through the slices!

Now the only announcements I hear (often at Walmart) are the "Code Adams" for missing children. (Maybe the parents could attach a flashing blue light and...

Oh, never mind. Bad idea.

Funny! Good luck with the contest!

That last line has to be the funniest part of this story, okay, the story was funny, but Judy's response is hilarious. I really enjoyed this Walmart story, it's a great contest entry, and I wish you the best of luck. :)) Sandra xx

This is an excellent story for the challenge. You use good imagery and descriptions to share a very suspenseful story from husband to wife. The photo image supports your story well. Good writing! Thank you for sharing this.

Best wishes,

Alex
