Pricey

As she has to pack her lunch for work (no restaurants or takeout on the little island where she works) my favorite person went food shopping, and promptly got a big dose of sticker shock. For the small amount of food you see here she paid $100.49. Most of it she said was on sale, too. I checked the receipt (she sent a snap of it)and just the two rolls of paper towels were $9.99.

Last week I paid $13.00 for twelve rolls of paper towels and groused about it. I will now shut up. :)

Living in a place where most of the commodities we take for granted have to be imported means paying a lot more for them, I guess. I see a lot of banana and cereal breakfasts and PB & J lunches in her immediate future.
