Sam I Am

Sometimes I shop at Sam’s Club. Yes, I am going to hell.

OK, so Hubby and I were at Sam’s Club. And if you’ve ever been to Sam’s Club, or any place where you can buy items in bulk, you can appreciate how bulk buying can sometimes get out of hand. Below, Hubby with his $12.98 prize:

That’s 2,300 multi-colored wire ties. In thirty years, when Hubby ties a peaceful death after a long and fulfilling life, I’m going to be like, “I’ve got 2,198 multicolored wire ties, free to a good home.”

I, of course, made only sensible purchases. Purchases that will lower our over-all household expenses. My shiny Sam’s Club prizes are below:

You have something to say? What, you don’t use Ziploc bags? Do Ziploc bags go bad or something? No, I didn’t think so. 208 Ziploc bags. I’m simply planning ahead.

I also bought nine pounds of 15 varieties of:

These are for work. Yes, it is good to work in an office near SnakeLady. Yes, it is normal for me to have 15 varieties of candy in a basket in my office. No, I’m not kidding. No, I don’t eat it myself. After 3 years of having candy on my desk, I’m immune to everything except Almond Joys and those sticky little honey sesame things shaped like tiny bricks of gold. Oh, and sometimes I dip into M&Ms if someone brings them. Also, sometimes, if someone comes by to get candy and they stop to talk I’ll join them with a Snickers, because, well, it’s polite.  So maybe I’m not immune, but really, I’ll have maybe only half a dozen of these. OK, maybe a dozen. And I wasn’t so much being arrogant earlier in this paragraph when I talked about being immune to candy, it was more like hopeful. Let’s just stop talking about this.
