• DVD's and deals galore, its a small world...

  Have you ever been to Costco, or any of the other Gumugous chains out
  there and realized that eventhough you are going there for one or two
  items you end up with ten or fifteen for no apparent reason... Just
  because it was there, the coupon was there and you figured, ok I
  haven't been here in a while and viola, it was fate, destiny, karma or
  your wallet saying, I'm dusty empty me out...

  Ok, talking wallets aside, I was in Costco a day or so ago, and I
  decided, ok, get stuff because I was house sitting for the Grandparents
  and I needed food.

  Being the holidays, I parked, got out of my car (always a good thing to
  do, or else you end up hitting your head against the glass) and looked
  around. I spotted two people walking towards Costco... They were my
  Uncle and Aunt... Go figure. Small world indeed. I wished them best
  wishes, seasons greetings, gave them hugs, etc and asked about the
  kids... They have four sons. They were all doing well. Everyone was
  well. I may speak about them at another date.

  Of course passing through Costco I always ran into them, etc.

  Back to my purchasing of stuff...

  There was a coupon for $25 off - Simpsons Season 1 through 3 OR Family
  Guy Season 1 and 2.... It was a hard, hard choice.. but I finally
  decided. I picked up the Simpsons DVD set. It was originally $94. But
  with the Coupon it came to $69. Which came to $23 a Season...
  All-in-all not too bad. I also grabbed Mr. and Mrs. Smith. What can I
  say, I'm a DVD-Movie-enabler of sorts.

  Picked up a dual package of Sun-dried Tomato Raviolli and Cheese (never
  got to eatting it), Provallione Cheese, Eggs, 2 Loaves of Whole Wheat
  Bread, and 18 pack of Burritos, a Barrel of Peanuts (maybe not a barrel
  but a frickin' huge one)... which they are still in my trunk... opps.

  I ended up watching Eddie Izzard's - Glorious
  DVD, which is the prelude to Dressed to Kill. It was just as funny and
  only made in 1997. I wish he made more recent stuff, I'll have to look
  at his webiste for more current information.

  I can't think of anything else... surprising eh

  Vx Out
