Greetings ladies and gentlemen.

Welcome to Day 8: Shopping.

Lincoln and Stella were in Great Lakes City for the weekend. It was a sight to behold.

There was a mall in the city that Carlota Casagrande told Lincoln about. He and Stella couldn't wait to check it out.

"Can you believe what adventures in shopping we'll be in for?" Lincoln asked.

"I know," Stella said. "Remember, though, you and I each only have 100 dollars to work with".

"I nearly forgot about that," Lincoln said.

When they arrived at the mall, Lincoln and Stella could not believe their eyes.

"Oh my goodness," Lincoln said. "Carlota said it would be a site to believe, but I nearly forgot the actual thing looks bigger up close in person".

"I know," Stella said. "Look at this place. Who knows what we might be able to find in there?"

"I can already feel the butterflies in my stomach just waiting to hatch out," Lincoln said.

Stella then commented, "well then, what are we doing out here talking about butterflies? Let's go in there and get this day full of shopping started!"

"I'm ready if you are," Lincoln said to Stella.

"And I'm ready if you are," Stella said to Lincoln.

The 2 of them went inside to get a closer look.

"My goodness," Lincoln said. "I don't know where we can start".

"Me neither," Stella said. "Let's take a super close look".

The first store they went inside was full of toys. They spotted a basketball.

"I can picture Lynn and her friends shooting some hoops with that," Lincoln said.

"That basketball reminds me of Kobe Bryant," Stella said. "I still feel sorry for how the crash ended".

"Me too," Lincoln said. "Let's hope the guilty party gets arrested for that".

There was a section full of trains.

"Now that, I bet Carl would wanna play with," Lincoln said.

"One day," Stella said. "We need to take a trip along the Pennsylvania Railroad".

"We should," Lincoln said in agreement.

The 2 of them then checked out a store full of comic books.

"All these comics," Lincoln said.

One comic was about the power rangers.

"Lincoln!" Stella called. "Over here".

Lincoln came over.

"Ace Savvy meets Phoebe Powers?" he asked. "We already have copies of that".

"Ronnie Anne doesn't," Stella said.

"I'll buy it," Lincoln said.

"Let's get one for Clyde too," Stella said.

Each comic book was 5 dollars, thus leaving them with 95 dollars each.

5 minutes later, the 2 of them found a store full of clothes from the 80s, 90s and 2000s.

"Let's see what's in here," Lincoln said.

"Look at these clothes," Stella said.

The 2 of them found some they thought would be cool. There were some fitting rooms nearby. It was like a fashion show for Lincoln and Stella. They first came out like hip hop artists.

"I can see this working," Lincoln said.

"What else have you got?" Stella asked.

They then came out like 2 characters from Disney's Even Steven.

"No," they said.

"But you still love Disney shows," Lincoln said. "Right Stella?"

"Of course, I do," Stella said.

Afterwards, the 2 of them came out looking like a pair of goth kids who just returned from a Halloween party.

"Definitely not for me," Lincoln said. "Even though I do rock it".

"It does match my black hair," Stella said. "Let's keep it for emergencies".

"Good idea," Lincoln said. "It might scare those bullies back in Royal Woods running".

They then came out in the same designs as the Fresh Knight and Raini-weather.

"Perfect!" They said.

Lincoln and Stella changed back into their normal clothes so they could go pay. Once they left, Lincoln and Stella were each down to 55 dollars.

"What should we do next?" Lincoln asked.

"Let's go get something to eat," Stella answered.

Lincoln and Stella got some juicy burgers and french fries to go along with it. They even stopped for fruit punch.

"You wanna know something, Stella?" Lincoln asked. "I'm having a really fun time with ya".

"So am I," Stella said. "I hope this can go on for life".

She then leaned over and kissed Lincoln, who gladly kissed her back.

"I can't wait to tell Ronnie and Clyde what comic books we got for them," Lincoln said.

"I can't wait either," Stella said.

With that, the 2 of them went back to Ronnie's home. The 2 of them had 47 dollars left each.

That ends Day 8: Shopping. Next up is

Day 9: Hanging out with friends.
