Needless to say, this is a major decision. We planned to raise about $1,000, which would pay for most of the trip. Anyway, she was very frustrated, and worried about the guys that have already re-arranged all the tables. So I suggested that she offer them one of your milkshakes -- milk, ice cream, ice cubes . . . and everclear. She laughed so hard! I justed wanted to you to know that you helped brightened someone's day! Peg ...

To be honest, we can buy brand-name pop at the local grocery store on sale cheaper than we can buy off-brand pop at Sam's. Meijers puts Pepsi products on sale about every three weeks. (Coke the next week and 7-up products the third week.) And seeing as I am usually at the grocery store at least twice a week, it's real easy to stock up when the stuff is on sale. Peg ...

Hubby is slowly learning which have the good prices, and he stops on the way home from choir/soccer practice/church meetings/etc and gets me milk. (Course, the good price *almost* pays for the cappachino's that he picks up for me sometimes, but that's another story!) Peg ...
