Now that wuz a Shopping Trip!

I ran out of blank DVDs this morning. So, I filled my Baby^TM car up with gas and headed west for Menards. (We're outta plastic wrap.) After procuring plastic wrap and several other things, I went south for MicroCenter to procure blank DVDs. They also had envelopes on sale, for $2/100 so I bought two. Then I headed south to a place near work, where I'd ordered a clamp for the magnifying light I bought at the last Nicollet Open Streets. (It's true, they ain't worth much without the clamp.) They had a whole host of Sony DVDs on a table with a label that said either $1 or $2, depending if they were RW, Blu-RW, 50, or 100. After they found my clamp, I asked, "Is that price per disk?"

"No," the manager said. "We've stopped selling Sony. It's for the package."

"Is there a limit?" I asked?

"No." the manager said. "Buy them all."

I did. He got me a shopping basket, but I had to get a cart.
