Tricks for Beating the Rack "Shuffle"

Tricks for Beating Rack "Shuffle" Struggle          When I was younger I had this friend who no matter what TJ max, Marshalls, or "rack" store would walk in and within 30 minutes have a ton of amazing clothes to choose from.  She made it look as easy as washing your hands, it seemed so effortless. Until I tried it myself one day and after an hour I left empty handed, emotionally drained and disappointed.  After that I learned to avoid "the racks" and stayed away for years.        So after some years I began seeing my mom having the same luck as my friend and bringing home amazing quality clothes with brand names to match from our local Salvation army. I decided to give it a try again but no luck.

As a mother (and step) of 2 eight year old girls and dealing with the struggles of Bipolar disorder along with anxiety and ADHD I seem to live in a tornado everyday.
