Thoughts from the Superstore

#1. The cart coin is only helpful when you actually remember to bring it with you! :(
(had to go home and get it because of course there was no loonie)

#2. Do they not make Jiffy pop anymore??? Can't find it anywhere!

#3. Honestly people. Haven't you ever seeen large grocery orders before? Goodness. Surely I am not the only one with a full cart! And why is it someone always makes a remark? Yes, again today!

#4. (an actual conversation not a thought)
No Ma'am, I cannot give you my cart for your loonie. Why? you ask...because I indeed am not using a loonie, I am using my cart coin! Oh yes! ;)

Wasn't the cart coin on a keychain?

What is jiffy pop?

I have a full cart, too often.

What is a loonie?

Ha Ha...

yes it was on a keychain..in my other purse!

Jiffy Pop? You know, popcorn in a covered pie tin and when you heat it it blows up into a big bubble and then you 'pop' it open! Like an air bag! hee hee

The loonie is the canadian one dollar coin!

We just had jiffy pop the other night at the bon fire....did you try in the snack section, in with the marshmallows etc? I'm sure that's where it came from....I also think they have it at Wal Mart....

Leslie,

I was in the camping section of walmart in Kentville NS and they had a bunch of the Jiffy Pop... as a matter of fact Steven found some at the local little supermarket by the campground and he popped some up the other night... I missed out but Patrick and Lisa got to enjoy!!

Hope you are loving camping.. we sure do...

People are idiots, it never fails. When I have a full cart they stare at me too. Maybe because I am only five feet tall and can barely push the cart by the end of the reip and am making quite the spectacle. I don't know. You would think people would get a clue.

usually juiffy pop is hanging somewhere that you have to be lucky to walk by and see. sometimes with seasonal stuff, sometimes if you are REALLY lucky, it is with the snack food...
good luck finding it!
