I'm not sure what it is about BB&B that bothers me the most - the overpriced household goodies, the mostly incompetent staff, or the fact that I've spent way too many hours (yes, hours!) there in the past 6 months. Don't get me wrong, BB&B has a rad inventory, but come on! Everyone feels like they are getting a deal when they get to use an expired 20% off coupon. Well, news flash, you're NOT getting a good deal. You're paying the price at which the item should have started. I'm sorely disappointed by that statement, especially since today I purchased 3 fairly inexpensive items without coupons. Without!!!! I had a pity party in my head while I was waiting for the items to be giftwrapped.
After that riviting BB&B experience I discover that there was no gift card attached to the ribbon on the gift. Are you kidding me! I'm already on the road and sucessfully out of the Wally-World shopping center and there is NO WAY ON EARTH that I'm going back in that direction. So I hop on in to Dollar Forest..... where "everything's a dollar" except for the greeting cards (they're only 50 cents each).... to get a wedding themed card.
Finally, I'm on my way home. And hungry. I stop in for a Fresh Meal Sub for the $4.95 turkey sub. I swear, the guy in line in front of me was either on speed or had forgotten to take his Adderal this morning. I learned two things from him: in the past 4 years he has never gotten any sub except the ham and swiss & that he eats crickets for snacks. Yes, snacks. I resisted the urge to ask him if he dips them in chocolate or grills them.

Cricket Boy... that's awesome. I mean, the name is awesome... not the consumption of crickets. That is definitely not awesome.
Anyway, in any event, I'd vote Adderal. People on speed aren't hungry. :)
haha, thanks!
oh, one other thing, Cricket Boy did mumble something about "protein" in regards to the crickets he eats.
