last night after we got back into town, we stopped by publix. i was hoping some items i had seen advertised for buy one get one free were still on sale, but they weren’t. i decided to wait until i went on my big grocery shopping trip for those, but we picked up some popcorn since it was 10 for $10.

when we got to the register, though, they rang up as $1.75. now, i’m not going to haggle over $0.75, and i just made an off-hand comment to joe about how i thought they were 10 for $10. the cashier and a bagger both went looking to see what caused the discrepancy, and all the while the line kept growing. joe turned to the man behind us, apologized and said, “i never thought i’d be *that* person.”

i guess we now are *those* people.
