Topic: Expensive trip too buy some lettuce

I went to my local grocery store yesterday too buy a head of lettuce, (about$.99 cents) . when I got there I discovered my rear tire was almost totally flat. I changed it and went too get my other tire fixed,and the store owner came back and let me know that that my two rear tires were weather cracked and needed too be replaced,so it ended up costing me about $250.00. I never did get my lettuce!

That is a sad story indeed, Dino.  I thought you went for lettuce and came home with a new guitar.

Was it truck tires? 250 a pair is about what I pay for my F150.

I wish it would have been cheaper but they charged for stems,balancing and disposal fees, then on top of that taxes are almost 10% in california,well next time I hope it will be a new guitar.

Re: Expensive trip too buy some lettuce

I had one of those happen.

I was sitting at home relaxing when for some odd reason the wife wants chocolate ice cream.
We have none.
*angry*
So I get dressed in the middle of the night and stomp out of the house, slam the car door when I get in and floor it out the driveway, floor it down the block and in frustration...peel out by accident when I get to the light.

Big fat ticket for me, as the car that pulled up behind me before I peeled out onto the main road......was a cop.

Stupid ice cream....

See, now that's where I would have said something like "Who tied a refrigerator to your butt?" to my wife and SHE would have gotten the ticket.
