We have spent the last two days at the beach. It is spring break, but still off season. That's probably why we got such cheap coupons for lodging. LOL. We have a very nice room with a view, wifi, and a short walk to the beach complete with a little kitchen bar. I always throw some things in a insulated bag before we go on long trip. things like cheese, crackers, fruit, some chocolate! A couple of drinks. it is really a good thing I did that this time.
.There is one independent chain grocery store in the town. They have nothing. I thought I could at least get a family circle or something to read. hey had one bottle of non sugar flavored water. The vegetables looked ready for the dumpster. I can see where 1/2 price shopping trips would have to be altered to going maybe twice a month to the next town twenty miles away. Or you would have to carpool with a neighbor and take turns.
There was one reasonable??? Priced place to eat after six o'clock. It was a fish and chips place. It cost 40.oo for fish and and chips and I had ice tea and my husband had 1 beer, it was our anniversary, so we splurged. I had brought 1/2 a bagel from the free breakfast the night before and we had fruit, ( I can't have a whole bagel on a diabetic diet). breakfast. we found Subway a few miles into the next small town and got subway for dinner. Altogether, we spent 68.00 for three days plus some of the food we brought along.
We did stop I'm the next town. they had the biggest dollar store I have ever seen. I found a cd crate that I have been using to store CD cases for the business I needed a different colour. We found cookies and paper towels. My husband got salami and pepperoni.
That's about all from the road.
Please share and comment.
