The handles on this cart are sticky. Maybe I’ll grab another one. Okay, this one’s better. Should I get any produce? I don’t have a big enough refrigerator. Bananas don’t need refrigerated, right? How much is a pound? I’ll grab four. Hopefully they don’t go bad before I get the chance to eat them. Worst case scenario, I can give one to Roomie. They have to be better than the ones we have at Towers. Are you supposed to bag bananas? I will just in case. The rest of these look so good. Should I get any veggies. Ooh, zucchini. It’s been forever since I’ve had zucchini. Is there any way you can prepare zucchini in a microwave? Not that I know of. I think I’ll grab some baby carrots. Wait, they’re how much? Never mind.
Completely bypassing the meat section. I can’t make any of that with my tiny microwave. I can’t wait until I actually have access to a stove again. Wait, there’s lunch meat too. Hmmmm… no. Too expensive.
E-Z mac! Finally! These ones are cheaper, but these ones have less salt. I’ll pretend to be healthy. Kraft is better anyway. I save $.40 if I buy in bulk for four anyway, and I know I’m going to use all four. Probably before the end of the week. Wow, they have microwavable soups, too. I miss soup. I’ll get a few.
Pop tarts. Where are pop tarts? Oh, they’re in with cake mix. Why…? Oh well. S’mores is the best. Is that brown sugar? I think those are roomie’s favorite. I’ll get some for her so she doesn’t eat mine.
Gatorade. I need gatorade. Of course it’s in with the chips. Two bags of Doritos in the cart. Blue, red, should I get purple? I’ll get purple. 4 for $7? Another blue it is. On the other side of the aisle are fruit roll-ups. Because that makes sense. I’m not complaining. That’s less distance I have to walk. Peanut butter is all the way over there? Ugh. If only didn’t like it so much. Walking that far is so much effort. I probably should get some bread or something for that. Should I get some kind of whole grain? But white bread is so much cheaper. Meh. I’ll get that. I’ll grab some strawberry jelly too. Yes, they have the squeezy kind so I don’t have to actually get silverware!
K Cups. Thank you mom for getting me a Keurig when I moved in. I use it more than my TV. They have hot chocolate and apple cider K cups? I’ll try at least the hot chocolate. No, I’ll do apple cider. It’s fall and I’m basic. Okay, back to coffee. Let’s see, blond roast has more caffeine than dark roast… Veranda is good. Veranda with vanilla? Sold. I need creamer cups, too. Are these cheaper than actual half and half? Probably not. Too lazy to check. Aww, look at this travel mug. I could use one anyway. Saving the world one coffee cup at a time.
Alright, toiletries. I cried three times last week. I could stand some tissues. Here’s a box, and I’ll get a travel pack to keep in my bag. Why doesn’t Market have Q-Tips? And why are there only jumbo boxes of Q-Tips here? I’ll get it and sell it to people. The black market of Q-Tips. Baby wipes. God knows how much I need to actually scrub my desk. This is close enough.
Advil. The headaches are real. Aww, look at this little container. I can carry it with me. Oh, look at the price. I’ll stick to plastic baggies. I think I still have enough of those. I think I’m out of laundry detergent. Why is the school supply section right here? Wait, they have the pens I like. I think mine are almost empty. If only I liked pencils; pens are so much pricier. Look at this planner! It’s got flowers all over it! I’m gonna get it. I need to get my life more in order anyway. Okay, back to laundry detergent. These packs are so much easier than getting a giant jug.
Let’s see, do I need anything else? I don’t think so. I’ll go check out.
Cereal! Almost forgot cereal! Roomie likes Frosted Mini Wheats. Family size is a better bang for your buck. I need some Fruity Pebbles because I’m actually 3 years old.
Okay, that’s it. Impulse buy some gum for a few friends and some mints for me.
My total is how much? I mean, I did only get the essentials.
