WTH! What are they going to do with that? Geeze, they never bother to buy that much milk and bread beforte...
Make French toast? Is that what you need for winter survival?
Jeez, no kidding. In my 46 years of living here I can't once remember being snowed in for more than a day. Yet when I worked in a grocery store as a teen business was just nuts during every snow storm. Couple that with people not being able to get into work and it was chaos. I remember staying later to cover for somebody else once. After 10 hours straight of being on my feet, I sat down for 5 minutes in the break room when some guy comes wandering back there.
"Hey ! You're out of gallons of skim milk !"
So buy 2 half gallons and come back the day after tomorrow. Cripes.
