Went out for ONE thing today... eggs. That's it. Eggs. I always buy 3 cartons, each carton has 30 eggs. The reason I do this is because when I lived alone it would last me about 45 days, along with most of my basic groceries. Since my GF moved in with me it lasts about 25-30 days. Still a good amount. On the way to the store she remembers two more things we need, which quickly became 10.
So we run to Wal-Mart instead of the neighborhood shop. The parking lot is FULL, it is a strip mall, so there are other businesses there, ALL OF THEM OPEN. I'm talking about furniture stores, bars and restaurants. W...T...F. The grocery store is crowded and it was a challenge to stay away from people. We buy everything EXCEPT the eggs as the shop sells it in 30 egg cartons and Wal-Mart does not.
We get to the shop and it has a line outside like if it was a disco or something. They only let like 10 people in at a time. When I get in I go to the eggs and there is ONE lady in front of me, asking the worker behind the counter (they have like butcher/dairy/cold meats in one) for a list of things. 5 minutes later it's my turn. I ask for my usual supply of eggs and she says, "I can only sell you one kilo." To which I say, "That only lasts like 5 days... then I'd have to come back." "At that point I can sell you another one." "Truuuue, but the whole point of this is to NOT leave the house!" So I buy nothing. Complete waste of time. Lucklily, my GF suggested the butcher shop and what do you know, they had eggs. I asked how many I could purchase and they said however many I wanted. I asked for my usual of 90 and that's when they drop it on me.... 270 Mexican pesos! Last time I bought them it was 133. The price of EGGS has more than doubled. Fruits and vegetables has been flectuating a bit to, but they have also about doubled in the last 2 months. God damn!
