Fry's Trip November 21st

Oh Boy did I do some grocery shopping today. Luckily I was by myself because there would have been no room for my son in the cart at all. I got us stocked up on rolls and everything we need for Thanksgiving and some for our Christmas dinner. I don’t normally spend this much but at least I got a lot of groceries. I wanted two turkeys so I broke the trip into two transactions.
