YES! Tuesday is 6% off at Scott’s (Kroger’s) for senior citizen – that would be 55 and above. Well, yesterday I was in the store with many other Thanksgiving shoppers – not just senior ones – and I was just being my own little self, thinking of thawing times and onions and yams – Yuck – and finally got in line to check out.

I chat with the new cashier and she gives me my total and then  . . . Oh yes oh yes oh yes . . . says it’s Tuesday and I almost took 6% off out of habit. In shock, I say, “I’m 61.”  She hesitated for a split second and then said okay and gave me this discount. My first instinct was to crawl over the counter and hug her, but cynical moi asked if she were just trying to make me feel good. And I think she was serious when she said no.

I told her she had made my day.

It’s probably the hair color . . . but whatever the reason, I feel something bubbling up:

WOO HOO!!!
