    Talking Had a big belly laugh at the grocery store

    While checking out the the day old bread rack -baked goods 40% always a good thing - I noticed a new sign on the rack.

    It said:

    Customer Value Program
    40% off

    So that is what the day old rack is called now

    Glad to know they appreciate me that much.

    That must be true as there were more people looking at the rack today then normal. And nothing was different ( same place, same price labels, not things) except the sign.

    Yes, day old bread isn't day old bread if you don't call it that. LOL

    How true - it's all in a name!! I started taking pictures of signs that make me giggle - the first was when I was driving through Texas 33 years ago - Love their "Drive Friendly" signs - wonderif they still have them?
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
