Since we are both moving and going on vacation soon I have been trying to buy less at the grocery store, however that found me today without any bread. I decided to make a trip down to the discount bread store and pick up a loaf.
I grabbed a loaf and then spied the english muffins We love english muffins and decided that we could eat them pretty quick so they made it into the cart. Time to go!
But look! Entenmanns doughnuts are really cheap. They would be good breakfast for when we are on the road. But the kids want the cinnamon rolls, they don't look all that yummy to me, I'd rather have the doughnuts. Ohh . . . what's that? Entenmanns is having a buy 2 get one free sale? OK we can have doughnuts and cinnamon rolls and I'll throw in some pound cake for good measure.
Alright, I'm walking to the check out. Oh look! Pretzels are only $1.29 a bag! They are at least $2 at the store and my kids eat pretzels like they are going out of style, better grab a bag of those. What was that you said Mrs. Check out lady? The prices on pretzels have just dropped to 99 cents! Oh I better grab a couple more. Good. Now we are done. What? More good new from Mrs. Checkout Lady? I spent over five dollars so I get an item off of their free item shelf. Well I don't mind if I do.
At last I make it home. Who's ready for a sandwich? Let me find that bread. What? You want milk with your sandwich? Oh. . . we're all out. I guess we better go to the store.
