I usually do my shopping at Safeway. That is only because it is close. Another reason is because it is also not Albertson’s. They do have something in common though. When shopping there, you have to be a member or you will spend about $2.00 for a loaf of bread and $0.99 per pound for bananas. Then when you are finished paying, a smiley-faced cashier will tell you how much you have saved. I never get into it with them because most people in the workforce have to follow procedures at work that make sense to a Marketing Director but, are rather suck when applied to customers. I mean saved compared to what. You might mean compared to your non-member prices well than yes, because those prices make Soviet Russia seem less inflated. I had always heard of Winco but had never been there until last Thursday. Winco was so spectacular for being inexpensive I almost started crying. It actually reminded of me of the times when I was a child for 2 reasons. The first being that we had a family from Czechoslovakia move to our town and when she first went to an “American” grocery store she almost started hyperventilating. The fact of the availability of food and the low cost overwhelmed her. The second reason Winco reminded me of my childhood was because the prices where the same in there as they were in 1984. That was the year when the family moved to our country and, ironically the year best associated with perfect socialism/communism. Winco charged $0.48 for a loaf of bread and $0.29 for a pound of bananas. I love Wal-mart and Winco. Those two businesses actually care for the common schlub who is living week-to-week. I hope they drive every Safeway and Albertson’s off the map or at least to democrat states so they can feel happy about paying those prices, double that when you add taxes, for their organic crap.
If you have never been to a Winco or Wal-mart for shopping, treat your budget to some real living. You would come out of there with some many groceries per dollar that you could actually feel like one of the looters, sorry “victims,” that went through hurricane Katrina. Maybe that was where Representative Jefferson-Democrat was taking all the laundered money he stole from the people. Jefferson was stealing like a good socialist and, Wal-mart was donating food and other life saving items to the people like and evil capitalist company. And in walks Vadar. Sorry, I digress.
Wal-mart shopping baaaaahhhhd, Four legs gooood.
