Okay, here is round 2 of ShopRite Can Can Sale week shopping. And today I actually spent some of that grocery money I have been “hoarding”. Well, I have to admit, I actually didn’t spend the money. My daughter Nikki did a good job all by herself.
I’m a little under the weather today and wasn’t really up for a shopping trip, so, I asked told Nikki she was going for me. And, since she said no yes, I took the opportunity to not only send her to ShopRite but also to the Farmers Market. Wasn’t that nice of her to do that for me 😉
So, here is what we got today. And, the one happy camper is Bogo who is now fully stocked with treats. 🙂
