Water Water Everywhere

So I had a hysterical experience in Target - I found they had my favorite bottled water on sale for $1 a bottle usually 1.39-1.79/ bottle. I went in and asked if I could purchase 4-5 cases which they agreed to but said they did not have any more in back - only what was on the shelf. SOOO I took my cart over and proceeded to place every bottle in my cart (63 in all - interestingly enough about 5 cases).

Now I really don't think that had I 5 actual cases (boxes) in the cart of the water or 5 cases of a candy bar would I have received such stares as I did with those loose bottles.

By the stares of fellow shoppers and store personnel I believe they thought I had some sort of mental disorder. (or as my mom laughed at later that I had prior knowledge of some impending natural disaster no one had heard of coming)

What everyone wasn't aware of is that I just love getting a deal and don't mind buying in bulk and if it helps me drink my 2-3 liters water a day - then I will laugh myself through a store with a cart full of loose bottles.

 

I get a kick out of myself - sometimes!

 

*For those of you who are green-minded - I do recycle the bottles (refill a couple times before they go in the recycling bin) but this is a choice I have made for myself.
