okay, most of you know that store is banned in our house! i'm not supposed to go there...but on friday hubby suggested we stop there. hmm??? we needed protein bars, camera batteries, picture frames, and yogurt. we head in there and hubby is acting all silly. i grab the cart and take off like a mad woman needing to get through walmart and on to the next thing in life. that is how i usually am there...a kid in tow and one ready to be picked up soon!
so we get the protein bars....head to the yarn section b/c i want to make a new scarf. then we head to get batteries and peruse the frames. on the way we pass what appears to be an ffa group of boys minus the blue corduroy coats. then i breeze through the shoe aisle. hubby wants some long underwear...he waits patiently while an interesting man sorts through the pile. apparently he comments to hubby that everyone is stocking up for tomorrow. "(we are below 0 right now). i pick out some tights for chloe, although since the last 3 pair i have bought there have gotten holes in the toes after 2 wears i'm not sure why i'm buying anymore!
now, on to the yogurt. by this time, hubby is totally exasperated. cottage cheese....he'd like some cottage cheese. there sits deans for 2.97 and the off brand for 1.97. which do you think he picks up? oh yes...deans! i kindly ask him to switch for the off brand and we move on to the bread aisle.
now for check-out. we have very little so i do the self check. hubby drove me nuts as he grabbed things, asked why it beeped, asked what i did now, and told me to hurry. after a few times of needing to call the clerk over we are done!! whew...
thinking it is now safe i hear this, loudly, as we walk past the other aisles to the exit, "that is why we shop at wal-mart. so that we can use computers to check us out with stuff that costs less to save people money because we use computers instead of people. so then the people don't have a job to make money to buy things so we all end up at wal-mart!!!" okay, so that might not be an exact quote, but pretty close. he says he's going to post on the experience as well. check him out at hoosierhappenings. i'm sure his post will give you a total different flavor of our friday night event!!!
