I always have my husband go with me, always. Or he goes without me. He is a good little shopper. It hurts me to go. My reward though is after checking out, they have a Starbucks in the store, I always get one. LOL

As for nothing being stocked, oh yeah, my husband will GO GET an employee and tell them we need yogurt or lemonade. They always have it back in the warehouse, they are just lazy employees. When I want a lot of dairy kind of stuff, I go to the Kroger my dad works at part time. He is a 76 yr old man, and he has a HIGH work ethic and he is the dairy man. He makes sure all the stuff is stocked and ready to go.

Jeerie you are so right about the fibro fog and bactacking through the store. I went to Wal-Mart yesterday to get hamburger, buns, corn, mac & cheese, gorilla snot fo rmy hair. Easy. I spent over an hour in that store wandering around. Couldn't find the aisle that had what I wanted, couldn't find it on the signs. I was totally ost in there. Thank God for small miracles, I knew where I parked the car.

barb, what kind of a scooter did you get?we have been looking and it is hard for me to choose which i need most the chair or the scooter.i told my hubby i wanted one with racing stripes

Attitude is everything.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly…….

Mary Beth, you just bought some gorilla snot the other day. Did you use it up already or did you put it in the sock drawer again?

Lol

Wish me luck, I have to go to WalMart again today. I forgot the wrapping paper for the birthday present. Also Wish me luck because I've been trying to get one of those Wii's for months now. Last time I was there, I was 4 minutes late and they sold every one of them.

The snot I bought the other day didn't hold for nothin'. Yesterday I bought Super Strong snot, it still didn't spike my hair. How do these people get their hair to spike? Maybe it's cause mine if fine and limp. Now I have 3 jars of gorilla snot, do you need some, I'll mail you one

Do you have a Dollar Tree? I run in ther and get wrapping paper for 1.00 all the time. Much easier than Wal-MArt

Our Dollar tree is so hard to get in and out of and only has parking for 6 at a time. It's in a really bad place. Right between a beer distributor and the KFC. My hubby had some crap that he used on his fine hair to spike it. He got it at the Odd Lots store a while back. All I have to do to get mine to spike is to take a short nap.

Snot? For your hair? Eww. I would love to spike my hair but not like a punk rocker. A younger woman in church was spiking her hair and it was really cute on her. I'm trying to grow mine out but I'm afraid the fibro in my arms is going to make it difficult to keep it up. I need something simple.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a dent n dent is a store that buys up all the canned goods etc that are dented and all the other stuff that is just about to expire from the big grocery stores. They then sell it real cheap to it's customers. I saw a man on TV that started one of them stores and he now has three of them. He has a bin called surprise because the labels came off and he doesn't know what sin them.

I was going to tell Mary Beth to use some Mustache wax. See if that makes her hair stand upright.
