Sponges And Razors And Toothpaste, Oh My!

I love warehouse shopping. It's fun for the whole family. And Tom & I are really good at it too. If enough sample ladies are out you can get a pretty decent lunch. We have our wall of toilet paper and detergent for the next few months. There are also gallons of cleaning products which means that excuse for not cleaning is out. Tonight we dine on bulk stromboli. And I got two pounds of strawberries to gorge on.
Yesterday we raided the $5.88 DVD bin at Walmart. We have four fairly decent new movies. I guess you can figure out what our evening looks like. We're one CRAZY couple.

PS It snowed again today. Whippee.

You've inspired us. We've been sitting around all day not writing thank yous, and wanted to get out the house and had no place to go! So we're going to take advantage of our Costco membership and go mosey around there. Perhaps we'll get a little dindin from the samples ladies?

I was just thinking this morning of going to Sam's Club (like a Costco if you've never heard of it). I'm one of those always-thirsty people, good to stock up on bottled juices, water, etc. And that $5.88 bin is always to crowded for me to get an arm in! Crazy shoppers ;)
