We just got back from a bad day of shopping and the house is hot! Went all
the way to Winco to get one item that they have a lower price on and they
had none. They also didn't have the fruit that I needed. So we stopped at
Safeway where the Coke products were $2.75 but you had to buy 4 to get that
price. And of course they only had 2 of what I wanted. So I also got 2
Sprite Zero which I don't even need right now. They also didn't have the
other product that I wanted. So... Tomorrow I will have to go to yet
another Safeway. And perhaps some other store as well. Not happy.
