The grocery store where I do the majority of my shopping is sort of controversial in my neighborhood. They carry a lot of imported items – at the expected mark-up – and have a reputation for being thieves. I buy a mix of local and imported and am willing to pay for the convenience of shopping there than elsewhere. Truly, I’ve done the comparison shopping and they aren’t so much more expensive than other shops are AND I can walk there. I just watch the cashier closely
They put up this sign in the last year, but I have yet to hear of anyone actually “getting lucky” in the mystery sale – in any sense of that phrase, ha ha! Until recently I’d been doing most of my shopping in the early mornings, but I’ve recently shifted to Saturday afternoons. Still no luck. I’m beginning to think that it’s (gasp!) all a big hoax!! I may have to do some sort of expose and call them on it. Maybe I’ll get 25% off my bill just to keep me quiet…
