Grocery Stores are FIXED, read on

[villaridge]

well, it's time I spoke out about the scam that grocery stores run! I am sick and tired of it. Hell, I have repeatedly gone to them week after week, and they still take my money. LOL, stinking "sale" offers. Cottage Cheese at $1.00 off and free if u buy a $10 cat litter scooper. I just shake my head and think WTF? 4 cans of Pork and Beans for $2.25, wtf? how bout 4 philly of magnons for $2.50 But NOOOOO, never. so I get some days old bread in the bargain bin, get home, and it has MOLD. Sure, and do u think they would take it back???? hell NO. Then they have that scam where they send u the sale paper with great deals and u go to the store and they say "uhhh, that starts in 3 days" or the "duhhh that was last week" I tell ya,...never fails. Or how bout those damn shopping carts? I see 400 lb people with full carts...and the cart works great. I get an empty one, it works great till I put a package of bologna in it then the front left wheel wobbles like mad and the damn cart drifts to the right. I tell ya, it makes me scream!!!! Or how about that .99 cent pack of hot dogs made with mystery meat. what the hell is up with that? It used to have 10 dogs in it, NOW IT HAS 8 dogs. That is Soooo wrong on so many levels. Then there is the 10 cans of Campbells mushroom soup for $6.59 and the generic brand for .59 a can. all the big SALE signs are on the Campbells soup. Why do I have to do math in a grocery aisle when I would much rather oogle the hot lady pushing the cart loaded with high quality stuff who as she passes, smiles at me, and of course I get the Campbells in a desperate act of shopping cart equality. lol, I'm convinced grocery stores hire hot women to just wander around with carts of high dollar stuff just so u try to keep up with them. Then, they save the chocolate stuff till last. They figure u got ur stupid Bologna....and gonna psychologycially fuck with u, with the unheard whisper of "it's chocolate, BUY ME". Then there is that horrible "Rake" program grocery stores run. sign up for our "free" cards and get a whatever "%" off certain items. Usually items YOU DO NOT NEED, and oh yeah build up "bonus points" that in the future get u a higher "%" off more items YOU DO NOT NEED.

I tell ya, they are RIGGED. I'm gonna move next to a McDonalds and eat their $1 double cheeseburger everyday before I spend $2.87 on a pound of high fat content hamburger, $1.89 for 6 mealy buns, $1.25 for some wilted lettuce, $.89 a pound for tasteless california tomatos, $1.25 for some off brand ketchup, and $1.50 for cheap mustard. Want a pickle? go pay $2.98 for the off brand. Onions? .80 a pound(and ya gotta cry), and Mayonaise??? lol forget it.

My advice....Stay away from grocery stores

MATH IS HARD!!!!!!!! LOL. To some people it is and that's who they are trying to confuse. Also, ever walked into a store without them putting "deals" out on the end of aisles or on tables that are almost always just sugar laden crapola that will give you diabetes?

You sound like a modern day Rodney Dangerfield.

Hey, the stinkin gas station is the same way. You see the chips 2 for $4.98. Normally $4.98 each. So I grab me two bags, believing I am getting a steal. I would never buy chips at a gas station due to the markup.

The cashier says $10. I go you've got to be kidding me. The sign says Brand X chips is a 2 for 1 sale. He shoots back, yeah, that's for the Ripple chips only.
Why's that. I tell they guy I don't want rippled I want plain. Same answer, the sale is only for the rippled chips. I fire back, What is the expiration date past or almost here already? He calmly replies You gonna buy dip with them rippled chips or what. I say, Shoot the barbecue chips are already flavored. He says, The sale is only for the rippled chips.

I can't win. I'l take the ripple. where is your dip. Cause
l'll be damn if I am gonna choke down these ripple chips without dip.
