Things From this Trip:

-  If you have an MFC that will double (like my Quaker Quakes), it will become a "Money Maker" if the Pre-Sale Price is greater than the doubled amount.  The presale price on the Quakes is $1.99.  So with a .75/1 MFC, it doubled to $1.50.  They were only $1 last week - so I "made" .50 on each of them.  The Fruit2O only doubled to $1.25 because $1.25 is the normal price.  Get it?

-  Fat Free Ricotta is pretty darn nasty.  I don't think I'll be buying that again.  I need the fat to make it taste good. 

-  The Weight Watchers rolls are absolutely divine.  Only 2 points each and they taste like normal sandwich rolls.  Wonderful!
