Weekly Shopping Gone Wild

Normally we do our shopping once a week, at our local Vons. An occasional trip to Trader Joe's and an occasional one to Costco. Once a month or so.

In this new normal...has it only been one week? We find ourselves at a shopping center about 1 1/2 miles from our house. It is where my pharmacy is and it seems that if we have to wait for something, we duck into Ralphs to see if we can get something we need. Not a shopping list, but a guerilla attack. Our chances are slim to find what we need, but sometimes we succeed.

The other day we needed gas for our mower and had the can in the car. Instead of going all over the place, we used the station right there, figuring it costs less for that 1 gallon, then driving 4 miles and back to our normal station. I don't think we will be gassing the cars there normally, but it may come to that.

Off we go this morning, to the store we last shopped at a week ago...wish us luck.
