  • Makin' bacon

    I know you guys just hate it when I do this, but this one is just too good. I must share. At Albertson's, I am in good with the butcher lady. She knows I like my "Cheap Meat". Anyway, I'm at the other end of the store and she yells to me; "Do you do bacon?" So I follow her back to the meat dept. She proceeded to load one box and wrapped up another load of Tyson Bacon the sells for $5.99 a package. She told me to wait. She had to get pricing stickers. So, I'm standing there with 20 packages of bacon. She came back and put a 99 cent sticker on the box and another on the wrapped bunch. I ended up with $120 of bacon for $1.98.:ROTF: :ROTF: Being the nice guy that I am, I offer 2 packages to the nice lady at one of the thrift stores I go to. She wanted to show me something. It was a very cool Fender RI strap with a $14.99 price. She sold it to me for 99 cents. I gave away a few more packs, kept 3 and gave the rest to my dau-in-law. I just charm the socks off of these people.:ROTF:

            My mom works at a grocery store and I often get frozen meat that was soon to go out of date. If it's cryovaced and frozen it will last a long time.

              What? I just had a little green tinge on it. That goes away once you cook the stuff.:ROTF: I make friends with everyone I meat. They just do that stuff because I treat them like people. I don't expect anything in return. But, it happens anyhow.

                If you give me a leather strap, I'll make bacon out of it. :ROTF:

                  Is it Mike Tyson Bacon? It's probably made from Evander Holyfield ear.

                    That's a good one.:ROTF: But you still can't have the strap. It has "Fender" written all over it. If this wasn't a RI strap it would have been worth $100.

                              Don't laugh. If I were a real jerk, I could have gone to another Albertson's and returned the whole lot and got $120 back. All I had to say is; "I didn't realize that it had to used today." Now, that's SPAM.
