Limits

I’m not complaining . . I think this is funny enough to share.

First, the main thing I wanted when I placed the WM order last night was whole chickens and puppy pads. You know the chicken story. The puppy pads – out of stock. Nothing in stock to substitute. Chewy to the rescue!

But, get this . . I forgot to add this last night. Vince uses distilled water in his CPAP and I use it in my steam generator iron, which I don’t use very often but I always keep three or four gallons of distilled water set aside for when I do need it but with Vince using his CPAP downstairs, he’s used all my stash of distilled water. I was going to get some and there was a limit of 3 on regular distilled water at Walmart but the distilled water that’s some name brand, “approved for babies” . . it was cheaper and there were no limits. Go figure. That’s why so much of this makes no sense to me.

There was a limit of one whole chicken last night but this morning, they had packs with two whole chickens and limits of two packs so last night, I could buy one chicken. Today, I could have bought four. I didn’t but I did buy two more so I can make what I wanted to make when we have company.

I think that was the only thing weird or surprising. I guess my enterntainment these days is checking the limits and out of stock items at Walmart. We do have another store, Harps, which is out of the way and expensive, and we have two Aldi stores but even if we go to Aldi, we still have to go to Walmart because Aldi never has everything we need. Joplin is getting another grocery store but they haven’t started building it yet and it’s going to be on the south end of town – far south end, and we’re on the far north end so other than going there to get unique items that Walmart doesn’t carry, I doubt we do much shopping at the new store . . whose name I cannot remember.
