Buy Buy Bulk

I found myself at Costco today. Between the aisles of family packed cookies, jumbo mayonnaise, and 15 lb cashew containers- I felt perfect. Like I had plopped myself into a world where big was better.

You want ketchup? Take 3! You still want one ketchup? Take 3!
You only need one ketchup? Again, take 3!

Everything over inflated- even the prices. but, I hardly noticed in my excitement to purchase 95 load detergents. For those horrible laundry days or for the next nine months. You choose. But, the sooner you pack your belongings in the sub basement storage- the sooner you can come back.

Ah, the bulk of it all.

Trying to squeeze my deeply unnecessary purchases into my car. yes, its made easier by the fact that I have no bags. Just bulk. I pile them up on each other. My avocados end up in my cup holder. I drive home with the smell of tide and the rear view of family packed batteries.

I have heard that objects in the rear view mirror are closer then they appear.
