Cake and Mulch

Glenn brought me a couple of pieces of chocolate cake he made this week. He wants to loose some weight and can't do it with chocolate cake in the house so he brought it over to make Mom fat. I was happy to oblige him. As I munched, I mentioned I could use his help shoveling mulch into bags at the garden center. So I finished my cake and off we went.

Bag-your-own garden mulch is new to me. It was near closing when we arrived. Four girls stood around the cash doing nothing but I had to ask for service. I told one girl what I wanted, she pointed at the bags and asked me how many. I told her 4. She rang up $13 something with tax and we took the bags out to the mulch pile. While he was shoveling, Glenn noticed a sign that said $2.99 per bag (what I had been charged) or 5 bags $2.49 each. I could have had an extra bag free but the girl never pointed that out. I suppose I should have gone back into the garden center and made a complaint but I was tired.

Glenn did a good job packing those bags, they were so heavy! I couldn't manage them and was greatful he was there to help.
