My Ross “Haul?”

July 2, 2020 By: Summer Samba33 Comments

Summer's human does a Ross haul, but it's pretty skimpy.

My human noticed that a lot of young girls on YouTube did “haul” videos, where they’d go shopping and buy a bunch of stuff. Then they’d come home and do a video of their finds. So when she was out and saw there was no line at our local Ross Dress for Less, she thought it would be fun to do a haul video for me. They sell pet clothes for cheap, and she’s shopped there before for me.

There was a problem, though. Even though Ross was open, the stock was pretty skimpy and picked over. Ross always looks picked over, admittedly, but there were whole shelves that were empty. In the pet clothes section, my human found about a third of the clothes that are normally there. And this is all she found that she thought would suit me.

Even this dress was questionable. The material was kind of weird and stiff. And these pom-poms! I felt like somebody had made a dress out of grandma’s curtains.

The pink dress was much more my style. I think I have one or two other dresses made from the same pattern, but not this material. Isn’t it cute?

Here’s a better look at the flower accent. I think it makes the dress don’t you?

This wasn’t much of a Ross “haul,” was it?

I think my human should get a high five for effort, though!

And if you were wondering when I mentioned YouTube at the beginning if there is video… yes there is! My human will edit it and upload it at some point.

    The pink dress is really cute on you Summer. As for the other dress, like Scarlett o’Hara in Gone With the Wind, you make draperies look good.

    I love the pompoms, but you’re right, it’s not as cute on as the other one!

    I, like so many others, think that there is an angel posing there with you in the first picture, and again later as a Photobomber…Binga?? Hmmm

    I do like the pink dress too:)
    I think your ‘haul’ is way cuter than any U tube gals. MOL!

    I love the pom-pom dress! We’re just now rewatching Get Smart, and it looks like a dress from the 60’s!

    Too bad that first one looked big … and the pom poms. I liked the leopard print hearts. I thought you had butterfly wings in the first pic but realized it was just the light off the bag or Binga put in an appearance. Sometimes the ghost of Autumn shows up in my pics. Just got a notification about the video so I’ll be off to watch it.

    You look like you’re wearing angel wings in the 1st picture. It’s a beautiful shot playing off the sun’s rays. Great job mom! The 2nd dress is the cat’s meow, 2 paws up. That’s a pretty good Ross haul for these crazy times. Purrs

    I’m finding most stores are much emptier than usual. Mudpie would have fun playing with those pink pom poms!

    The thing I noticed the most is that the reflections in the first photo look like angel wings. Maybe Binga had come to visit you.

    The pink dress is much more you! I think the other dress could be cute if the pom moms are removed and maybe replaced with a white braided trim. I will give your human props for trying. You are worth it.

    Yes, the yellow flower and edging make that pink
    dress – cute. I also like that the blue dress has
    the little pink hearts. You look ready for some hot
    days outdoors on your cement table.

    Love the pink dress – the pom pom one would be fun to remove the pom poms…..haha. A weird thing when we saw the first photo of you is that the sun reflections behind you almost look like wings!

    Hugs, Teddy

    So many stores are half-empty if they’re open.
