wal-mart: always low prices?....

O...my story about being a good wife... I am not a cook let me tell you.... So these week i am attempting to create homemade dinners every night. In doing so I had to make a Wal-Mart run for some supplies i did not have. This was the beginning of a very long and frustrating day...

To start off, you should know, I left my wallet in Fillmore when we were up there last. So I did not have my cards or cash on me. We had a couple other checks from our wedding that I was going to cash at Wal-Mart. That was my first mistake...

Apparently the bank there won't cash my checks because I don't have an account with that bank. OK that is understandable, I'll just go to to Wells Fargo (were I do have an account). That didn't work either... Because Josephs name was on each check, and not on my accounts, I was not able to cash them.

 

I then went back to my apartment and found my checks that happened to have at my house. I then went back to Wal-Mart, and shopped around for probably about an hour and a half looking for everything I needed for my dinners I was going to make this week. I made it to the register (finally), and found that I could not use my checks. My ID was still in Fillmore. I could not buy my groceries. They then proceeded to return everything I found, to the shelves.

I left very mad and very frustrated. I went home woke up Joe (which I was trying to avoid in the first place) and took him to Wells Fargo. Instead of just cashing the checks, we just added his name to my account. After fifteen minutes there, we returned to Wal-Mart and went back around the store finding everything I had already found. 

Older Picture but I love it anyways ;)

By the end of the day, I was just sick of Wal-Mart. I was not happy and I am sure Joe did not enjoy being woke up. However, Joe really enjoyed the hot Hoagie recipe my mom taught me. It was really worth all that trouble in going through all that. May I just say I learned so much about shopping on Friday. I know Joe loves me so much and understands that I get frustrated easily, but he is still never going to love me less.
