Another trip to the little Tesco.

I've just been to the little Tesco again. But before I tell you about that let me tell you about something else. When I came into the living room this morning my Mum told me she woke up at about 6:00am and she heard something that she thought was a lorry or something and she heard these funny noises. My Mum went and looked out of the kitchen window and our scrap had gone! It was the scrap man taking our scrap away! At 6:00am in the morning! I wondered what time he gets up in a morning! It's quite warm out again today. I went in my fleece, because I thought it was a bit cooler, and I wish I hadn't! My Mum gave me a £20 note and £4 in £2 pieces. I took the trolley out the front door again today, but I brought it in through the back door because Dave had put the old trolley frame out for the scrap man for us. Today I got 2 telly magazines, ginger nut biscuits, strawberries, egg custard tarts, marshmallows, liquorice allsorts, 3 bars of chocolate (I'm treating myself to a mint aero again!), and 2 bottles of milk. For myself I got some Alpen cereal, mini vegan yogurts, vegan choc ice lollies again and of course that bar of chocolate. It came to £24.94 so I gave the lady the £20 note that my Mum had given me, and my own £5 note. But then she asked me if I had a club card and I said, oh, yeah, and I gave her the card, which brought the cost down to £23 something. So I needn't have given her my £5 note after all! When I got home I took the £4 in £2 coins and £1 from the change to get my £5 back and told Mum what had happened. When I had unpacked the groceries, and put my bar of chocolate in the fridge and sat down, I was feeling really hot, but I've cooled down a bit now! How is your day going so far?

We don't have a ginger nut biscuits here. How I wish I could have them for I never have eaten of them to find out how they taste.

Great, your club card helps! Your family helped the scrap man! No sandwich or drink?

My Daiso banana chips.
@sharonelton Ahh, I see. Ok. I went shopping today, Walmart and got my Simply Light Orange Juice and other necessities. Dropped in Daiso, they've got a nice & thin banana chips, easy in my aged teeth, that I like... got 2 bags. Found my toothpaste squeezer too. Bank for my laundry quarters. Waiting for the bus, a nice young woman, who is disabled, on crutches for both arms got to talking while waiting for the bus. She lives in a different part of same town, Kalihi and we both have to infrastructure going on near home.

@oahuwriter I hope you enjoyed your shopping trip too. I used to have a toothpaste squeezer! Now where the Dickens did that go? I saw a woman in town today who was walking with two crutches - but she was also leading a dog on a lead too! I just could not fathem how she managed to walk on two crutches and have a dog on a lead at the same time!

Yes, the club card does help. My family did help the scrap man! No, we get the sandwiches and drink from the big Tesco on a Wednesday afternoon, so that'll be today.

Our garbage man used to come really early but he doesn't come so early now. It's around 11 am these days before he comes.
