There is a story to tell about Aldi's this past week. I drove up and looked all through my purse and realized I had not brought a quarter. For those of you not familiar with Aldi's you need a quarter to get a cart (you get it back when you return your cart when your done). I looked over at the carts lined up and realized some one had blessed me with a buggy. They just left it there without getting their quarter in order to give someone a blessing. That would be me! I was so happy!
When I got all done I did the same and got in my car. Just out of curiosity, I looked in my rear view mirror, and then watched in
I'm going to think just maybe he needed that quarter in the worst way. That's way better than thinking so badly of him like I did at first. 😇

Let's Go Shopping Grandma!
I was watching T.V. with our 3 year old granddaughter and I asked her did she want some bologna. She said, oh yes, yes, yes. I went to the refrigerator and realized someone had ate the last two pieces the night before. So I broke it to her that we didn't have any left. They love to eat bologna at Grandma's and Pops house just so long as it's Koegel bologna made in Michigan.
Well, she looked at me kind of sad, put her little hand on my cheek, and said, "let's go shopping together Grandma." I looked at my husband and before I could say a word he said "don't worry I'm going to Walmart." Then he took off in a flash. He was so happy!
He spent exactly $20.00 (remember it was just supposed to be bologna)!
I have to recall this by memory as he threw away the receipt. Oh, I remember the total very well.
2 pks of bologna
1 pk of ham and cheese loaf
A lot of junk
=$20.00
All he said was the baby girl needed some bologna! Someday I'll learn my lesson!
That brings my total for this week to $51.26 (over by $11.26)
