Golly what fun.

We made a fruit run to Sam's this morning. On Tuesdays and Thursdays they will open up earlier (7:00 AM) and it is for geezers, er Seniors only. They did not have to ask for our ID so I guess we qualified. It was busier today at 7:30 than we have ever seen it, by far. There was a line of 20 cars doing the order on-line and pickup thing so they did not have to get out of the vehicle.

We went in as usual so I can pick and chose the best fruit. I had on rubber gloves because Mrs. Carrera insisted. So I "got" to pick up every item and put it in the cart. I "got" to push the cart, and and I got to run my phone app to scan and pay for everything. Then she "let" me put the cart in the corral. So she went to supervise my work for the most part.

There were lines of people at the self check out, and long lines at the human checkout. Lots of old geezers, and not one punk kid or rug rat or millennials to be seen. Sam's says that the "deep clean" the store and re-stock before they open. That may be, but they had little TP, and no Clorox or alcohol and cleaning supplies. Lots of fresh fruit, and that is the main reason we went. We don't need TP anyway. There were several areas just stripped of whatever was normally there.

One guy was buying for some sort of large operation, or he was the ultimate hoarder. He had 12,000 foam cups, 27 cans of Folgers coffee, lots of Starbucks coffee, 18 cans of Swiss Miss hot chocolate mix, three 25 pound bags of sugar, and a lot of other stuff. I saw him checking out and said, man you must be really thirsty! He smiled, and said well, its just the triplets, they are just demanding.

I just hope he was stocking up a hospital or emergency center and not some hoarder.
