tales from the grocery store

My friend sent me this ebay listing for Pokemon cards. The item description is totally hysterical and all too familiar. And those ordinary Pokemon cards sold for $142.51. Check it out here and enjoy!

Wow! That was great--and exhausting. I feel for her, but enjoyed laughing at her pain! Thanks for sharing.

That was awesome! Thanks for sharing. Incidentally, I hadn't been grocery shopping for weeks, until school started and I could go with just two kids. I totally get her story! Sigh.

I just got back from the grocery store and her description makes my trip sound like a day at the beach... with NO children. Thanks for the laughs.

You know, I remember those days, but going to the grocery store was an activity I actually enjoyed, even with the kids. Maybe that was because they were entertained there, usually for the bribe-price of a candy bar. Didn't like putting stuff away, still don't, but still rather enjoy walking the grocery store aisles.

so funny! Thanks for that. I get the "Are these all yours?" comments a lot, and I only have 3!

What a great writer. So Funny! I can't tell you how many stupid little things I end up buying because of my own sneaky brood!

I read this last week too. Very funny. It's obviously resonating with lots of people too for it to become as big a sensation as it has.
