Grazing .... you'll find it at Sam's Club!!

Wow ... I knew Sam's Club might be busy today since it is a Friday but I had no clue what we would find when we started shopping! The parking lot was full and I expected long lines at the checkout lanes. Hardly ... in fact, when we checked out, there was no one waiting -- except us! No lines ... so where were all these people??? Grazing ... yup, you got that right. It was about 12:30 and there must have been a whole lot of people who thought, "You know what? I'm a little hungry -- let's head to Sam's! They have food ... We'll just go graze the samples!"

The scenario including trying somehow to make it through the aisles of people waiting their turn to try the latest food 'fad' for the week! And, of course, we are entering the 'snow bird' season and although it was later than the 11am crowd, it was busy with carts, canes and motorized wheelchairs. I could hardly get through -- and when you get in the way of someone who is waiting for their "taste", watch out! They need 'aisle police' to monitor the situation! Usually, the folks pushing their 'wares' or 'food stuff' are asking for people to stop by. Today, they looked frazzled by the number of people pushing in close to see what was there to offer. I heard someone remark about "shrimp", but when I looked up to see what was stacked behind the kiosk, it was boxes of fudge! Go figure -- I was trying to get out of the way so as not to get run over by a cart gone wild!

I got the stuff I needed -- which totaled a whopping 6 items (including a DVD that Sandi was getting for Tyler) and we got outta there!! I had previously decided not to shop at Walmart at 11am -- I guess Sam's Club at noon is out of question, too!
