What an experience! Just got home from getting some fresh vegetables from the Farmer's Market, and a trip to the grocery store (Meijers). Good gracious, what a cluster F**K. I have found where the Three River's Festival people are on Saturday morning.
Plus every old person on a rideable cart, children pushing mini carts...It was like a circus. Something must be piped into the store, because the shoppers were dazed and confused. I was ran into twice by carts, bumped into by a walking shopper, and backed into by a lady who forgot she was in reverse. Mind you, I just needed a few things. Beverages like white cranberry juice, Propel mango water, orange juice. Plus some meats and a cake. How difficult could this be to pick up. Even the staff seemed to be left of center. Fast and furious pushing a flat bed cart of empty boxes that fly off. The meat lady even was shoving her leveled cart into people. Full moon? Uncertain! I remember the time when the kids were put into the little front section, facing the cart driver and held the coupons. I remember when elderly people had friends and relatives who picked up the stray peach and sanka coffee canister and brought it to them, rather than turn them loose with an electronic contraption. All that medication does state NOT TO DRIVE. At the end of the check out process, if good, the kids got a penny and rode the electric horse. Ironically the penny horse still exists at Meijers but the kids are so wore out from pushing the carts into people, who needs to ride back and forth to be tuckered out for the ride home. I got home and thought, I wish I could just live off air and water. It worked for Karen Carpenter for a while. She must have not liked shopping either.
