Someone bought $431 worth of stuff at the Dollar Store yesterday.  I assume that’s 431 items, but there was actually a sale going on at the Dollar Store, with 75 cent items.  Still, looking over at the sort of waving away any line cahier, it looks like it was all dollar items.

A woman had approached me while shopping, with a smallish Rice Krispies Treat item, and asked “Could you read the number of calories for this for me?”  I read it to her.  She balked, and said “Thanks.  I… guess.”  I don’t know what she was expecteing.  The two quasi-meal items I was buying were rather unhealthy, preservative laden microwaving boxed foods.  Utter crap, really, which is destroying my body and will be the death of me.  Just as certainly as the Krispie Treats will be the death of her.
