REPORT FROM THE WINDSHIELD

For Saturday August 23

Gas was $3.29 at Walmart. Wally world was crowded today... no carts at 3 pm... huge difference from week ago... I bet we see the consumer stabilize from here, and inch up the shopping...yes, inflation will be up but they will adjust with oil down. Master Card and Visa will benefit over Am Ex. Noticed Walmart’s banking area red hot busy… as was the pharma...

 

Back to school stuff was on sale and flying out the door. I noticed a LOT of red tag sales.

 

Lots full at Target, Home Depot and Lowes. It's like the shopper just woke up and stayed in town these final days of summer. Autumn here we come, and so I am off to find some local apples - yum!... No old bin moldy carbs for a crunch the numbers type like Frugals - at these prices, might as well go for the gold... and later I will check out the antiques fair and see if any local old money families are unloading the contents of their collapsing housing market right about now.

 

U-Haul had NO trucks available today...

 

The house across the street sold… the one down the street has two offers…

 

Happy hunting fellow Diana wanna-be's!

 

And gas up NOW for the Labor Day Weekend as oil will go up by then...

 

If you buy any MA or V on this post, the guy helping you with your groceries

will drop your bananas.
