No Topic, just Chat

Gotta vent! We went to the commisary for our monthly shopping trip. We get all the staples and meats at one go and make a meal plan (that always goes south) for the month. So last night I clipped the coupons and typed..yes typed a list based on the aisles in the store. Nifty right? Nope, they moved everything! My list was a mess. I made Mike do the coupons and check stuff off the list. (he was in one of the stores elec wheelchairs) I grabbed the stuff and loaded the cart. now I have to memorize the whole store..again!

Mary Kay, maybe I'm sounding paranoid but I swear they do this on purpose!!! Both of my "main" stores seem to do this on a regular basis. I'm wondering if they do it to make you look at things you normally wouldn't---- and perhaps buy them.

I have enough trouble remembering where things are after I've been there 20 or 30 times........

OMG! Sounds like a huge fiasco. My stores around here are remodeling, and our walmart is switchin over to a super walmart so I understand completely.

I have a retailer's memory..I can go a couple of times and remember where most things are. But they do that so you do look for the new and new to you stuff. It helps them keep people from running in for bread and milk and running out.

Very sneaky !!!!

MK ...what is that store in Brandon ???? I remember it being talked about last year.....

You know, I see the day coming when amazon.com is going to be my favorite store if the price of gas keeps reaching for the clouds. I buy a lot more online now, b/c you can get free shipping, the prices are lower, and you don't have to get out in the insane metro traffic. I am really liking amazon more and more everyday.

I have an friend who left ECF, but I still keep in touch w/her occasionally. She lived way, way out in the sticks where the Saints don't even tread. She works from home. Anyway, she was snowed in for four months. She ordered all the groceries from amazon that she lacked in her pantry.

Kitchen Emporium! I can't believe I found it! very close to barnacles Class.

I can't see shopping on line, at least for groceries. I have to touch and check it out! But then I have several stores within a mile of me.

They did that to our Wal-Mart when they remodeled

 

[classwife]

Thanks....wonder if that is the only one or if maybe there is one at citrus park......

 

[Mary Kay]

No clue where citrus park is...remember i just moved back to Tampa after 18 years.

That must be a nationwide remodeling of ALL the Walmart stores. They did here too.

No hi for me Norie? LOL Hi anyway!

Hi MK! Long time no font sweetie. Not around as much as I used to be. But will try to pop in occasionally and say howdy.

A little update on the moving thing, went to go fill out the application yesterday, I was approved. Funny thing was my landlord from my apartment I had before I moved here was there, I think that why I was given the green light so quickly. It feels good to be in the right places at the right time.
Gonna study today a bit then start some packing. I am so ready for this!

 

[Seabrook]

Good selena. Looks like you're in the right stream of energy and that things are working out for you. I hope the separation b/t you and your current landlord go smoothly and peacefully and that you can remain on distant friendly terms. Have a great weekend!

 

[selenamstar]

Thanks Sea!

 

[Seabrook]

Selena, just a quick question: Are those PVs on your avatar (avi) in the beautiful pastels? And if so, are those actual colors you have, or have you skillfully colored them yourself? Please and thank you.

 

[Mary Kay]

I was just teasing Norrie..But is nice to see your smiling..cycle?

 

[selenamstar]

Sea they are actually test tubes. I found it when looking for chemistry pic just like my background on my profile. I made the avi myself.

Okay, y'all aren't going to believe what I just did ...........

I just bought my very first modding kit. I went to MadVapes and found that blue acrylic mod tube available that I've been admiring for months. It's always out of stock, so even though IDK a fly-speck about modding, I'll put it in my project pile. My ace in the the hole is that eJoker is a pv-modder, and I will be seeing him in a couple of weeks @ a vapemeet. Maybe if I take him a chocolate cupcake, he'll show me how to solder?
