Today I decided to buy a new waste basket

[MIButterfly]

I looked at Target, Home Depot, Lowe's and Meijer online and decided to go to Meijer because they had what I wanted most: cheap. LOL! Anyway, I got there and found several different kinds but for the life of me I couldn't get any of the lids to work properly; not one! Some of the waste baskets were step-on and some were the kind where you push the lid open. I finally got one I could live with if I never wanted to snap the lid closed. Then I decided to get some Greenies Dental Treats and Churu for the kitties.

I went to the self check-out because they only had one regular lane open and there were six or seven people in it. The worker there scanned the waste basket and I scanned the rest, paid and left. I got to the front door and realized that I hadn't put the bag with the cat treats in my basket so I had to go back to get it. Then I couldn't remember which check-out I had used so I got the worker to help me. She finally found it among the bags a family of four was filling up! I was so embarrassed! Talk about a senior moment! Yikes!

1. Many people would put the rest of the shopping in the waste can.

Some do. And stores still have self checkout.

3. That's a good idea

Maybe I'll do that when I buy my next waste basket!

6. It's fine after goods are paid for. Saves bags.

But some people ...



I forgot to hit "post" last night.

Senior moment or just doing too much?

2. I think it happens to many of us if you self check out often enough you are bound to leave something behind.

4. Been there, done that..

The senior moment thing, that is.

Most recent one is I took some great coupons to the store, got stuff in the cart, went through chekout, got to the car and discovered I had forgotten to use the coupons.

That was just last week.

5. The biggest problem with all waste baskets in the USA

Is finding a way to put Trump and his minions in them.
