First let me pause for a moment and say OH MY! I have never seen my Kroger so busy. It was like black Friday. It was not a terribly fun trip, but I made the best of it. My three year old decided he does not want to sit in the cart. This is a must otherwise he will run through the store. So I started out my trip in with the battle of wills in the parking lot with me winning this round. This resulted in lot of tears (his, not mine), but I figured ( hoped, prayed, crossed my fingers) he would stop by the time we got to the bakery for his free cookie. He did.
This is the part where I say OH MY! again. It was a sea of gray and steel trying to get o the bakery. It was SENIOR DAY at Kroger and the deli/bakery was full of parked carts from seniors while they art their free lunch and shopped.
When I finally make to an aisle, my boy dropped his cookie inspiring more tears so off we went to the bakery again. The store was so packed with coupon shoppers and Seniors. Many aisles were bumper to bumper and patrons had to wait in line to go down the aisles. It cleared out some by the time I made it to the register. The cashier was so nice and one of the quickest checkers I've seen. Go Stephen!
I had a small list and a few items were already wiped out. I was still able to use about 15 coupons. Now on to the totals. I was glad to get out of the store before our trip inspired more tears (mine, not his).
