Oh, and when I have extra money, I'll go to Whole Foods or Central Market.

Fiesta sells root beer Faygo. But, they also say Pringles where the packages are in Spanish.

I think it's funny/cute when certain stores have "Hispanic Cookies" listed on those aisle product signs.

No, there's not one here. But everywhere else I'm at there is one. I live a two-minute walk from the Brookshire's Elite on Rice/Broadway. That store is like Central Market ... but better.

Wow. Neat. I kind of hate Tyler, so I go there as little as possible. But I did a little happy dance when they opened a Starbucks (well, they kind of moved the one out of the Barnes and Noble), but yeah. It's crazy.

They just opened a Brookshires in the town where my lakehouse is located.

It's the first real grocery store they've had. There was "Jerry's" Market, but he bought most of his stuff from Wal-Mart and then marked the prices up... WAY up..

Oddly enough, this tread is very exiciting to me. You see, I collect those little discount cards you can put on your keychains. So far, I have on my keychain:

Waldbaums
Super Fresh (original and Club Fresh)
Food Lion
CVS
Weis
Ukrops
Kroger
Winn Dixie
Big Bear
Pick 'N Save
Giant Eagle
Finish Line
Steinmart
Giant
Martins
Staples
and Ralphs (I sent away for this one first, because of The Big Lebowski)


Yes, that's right. I'm out of my fucking mind.
I know it might be something of a favor to ask, but I would love to get as many of these as possible (just incase I'm in Norway and I need to shop for mangos and they happen to be on sale via one of these cards.) I'd send a self addressed, stamped envelope to anyone that could get me a card (the ones on the key rings, I'm not as interested in the credit card like ones, but I have those too). Would anyone be willing to help me? You can PM me or talk to me via AIM: Egadsman0. Yes, I'm crazier than a shit house rat. Thank you.
