My Visit To Sam's Club @Solsticepublish

12/10/2013

I just went shopping at Sam’s Club.  I needed a car battery and it was
going to take a while so I shopped a little and watched people a lot!  I
must say, every cart must have had a different story and I am sure they were all
fascinating.  One cart had 15 one gallon jugs of hot sauce, 1 gallon of
kidney beans, a giant shaker of chili sauce, and a large apple pie. 
Another person bought 27 24–packs of hotdog buns, one gallon of relish, one
gallon of mustard, one gallon of ketchup. (I personally think they will be short
on ketchup) and one 8-pack of Pepsi.  Those are going to be some thirsty
people.  I sure hope they have enough hot dogs.  The next cart had a
turkey fryer, 2 spiral sliced hams and 6 boxes of Hunny Buns.  It was more
bizarre the longer I watched.  One lady had 17 bottles of wine and some
green peppers.  Others looked like they were getting ready for the
apocalypse.  One person had (I counted) 32 bags of frozen chicken and was
moving to the frozen beef patties with a flat cart.  Another person had 12
packs of slim fast, 8 boxes of diet snack bars and six bags of corn chips. 
Well, I guess they know themselves better than I do.  It seems though like,
if you’re going to cheat on a diet and you’re planning for it, what’s the point
of dieting in the first place?  If you’re going to fall off the cliff you
might as well get a running start, I always say.  Another person had 8
boxes of white paper and a bag of trail mix.  Then I saw a crowd gathering
in the alcohol aisle.  I went over to see what it was all about. 
There was a display for Jack Daniels and at the very top was an actual barrel of
J.D. with a sign the said, “One time buy.  Barrel for $8560.00” and a
person was buying it!  There were store associates going to get a lift in
order to get it down from the display.  I had seen it earlier and thought,
“There’s something they’ll never sell.”  Just a short time later, it was
sold.  Think about how much money that is?  Then think about how much
liquor that holds.  I don’t have any idea of the volume but I have to
believe the Super Bowl party is going to be at his house this year!  What
would you even do with that much whiskey?  It would take years to
drink.  It reminded me of some forgettable nights in college that made me
swear off the drink.  Even if some friends went in on it with you, that
would still be an enormous amount of alcohol.  I wish I had taken the
opportunity to ask that guy a few questions.  Cashiers at Sam’s must come
home every night and say, “You’ll never guess what the person coming through my
line had.”  At least the job isn’t boring.
