You must have been at Otis!! LOL.

The commissaries these days are awesome; however it is about an hour's
drive to McDill from here, and at $3 a gallon for gas, it really isn't
worth it. I shop the loss-leaders at the local chains!

That was it!

I've been to some other commissaries since then and they are nothing like
that old dinosaur was.

Here, it doesn't pay to shop at the commissary because of the price of gas
to get there. We do go there maybe once or twice a year. I can get a good
deal on Fruit Rollups, some cereals, juice boxes, olives, meat and a few
other things. But given our food allergies, there's not a lot we can buy
there. So we tend to go once at the start of school and load the garage up
with juice that has far off expiration dates on it. This year she decided
she wanted water instead of juice so we didn't bother to go.
