A Shopping We Will Go ...

Meijer, 9am.
Returned $71.70 worth of empty pop cans. My records keeping is a little lax, because I wasn't working alone ... a huge bonus as the job of taking in that many returnables is a pain by yourself.

6 Country Time Lemonade Mix @ $2.19 each
Total: $4.30

Plus, I'll get $49.90 back when I take these empties in. Meaning, really, I only spent $160.15. We now have an entire basement full of pop at what is usually the rock bottom price here. Yay! I also have another $70+ worth of empties that didn't make it to the store yesterday, and a raincheck for basically free Country Time.

Who's up for a store run?

After yesterday, I don't know that I am.



Simply,

Em.
