What do all the high school kids do to earn money here? They do not pack groceries. I do. In fact, the only other country that I have been to, not including Canada, is England. And in England, you pack your own as well. I sort of like doing it, except when I have the baby strapped to my front and she keeps grabbing things, and there are three old ladies waiting for me to get out of the way. This day, I was shopping alone and I only bought a few things. I bought ramen, which makes the ramen in the US look like garbage, oranges, cabbage, and bread. I usually go to the store every day, walking up and down the damn hill is good for me. Today, I think I might take the car to the video store.
You know what still ghasts my flabber? :) When I lived in SA, I went to a supermarket with my car and filled the boot with supplies for a month. Firstly food was cheap enough to buy so much, and secondly I had more than enough space at home to store everything. Now I walk or cycle, and buy just enough to fill a rucksack or mamachari basket. Which I pack myself. ^^
ReplyDeleteWe have to shop every day or almost every day. I like it. But the few trips we take to Costco get complicated when you have to put things aways. I used to buy toilet paper at Costco when we were in the states...here, I would not even think about it. Where in hell would I put the 35 rolls I am not using?
