I had to make trip to my local dollar store yesterday. I needed boxes for Xmas gifts, and the grocery store was charging $4.95 for a set of 3. Not that much more than the dollar store, but if I can get it for a dollar, why not? I love the dollar store!

As soon as I walked in, it was obvious the poor Dollar Tree employees were overwhelmed with the holiday rush. Literally, there was Xmas fallout all over the floor: green and red glitter from cheap ornaments, broken candy canes, half open bags of lights, bend cards, horribly-tacky decorations, and on and on. One employee was trying to make sense out of the mound of wrapping paper boxes with crazed holiday shoppers grabbing the tubes as fast as he can pull the box out.

I grabbed my 3 boxes and ventured down the ‘Bath’ aisle to look for a shower curtain (separate story). What a surprise – no curtains. Not even any in an awful pink or yellow… I would have settled. But there was enough shower curtain hooks to hang every shower curtain in Delaware. Twice.

Okay, so I was done. Check out time. Think people know how to stand in line? Seems easy right? Sadly no. Anyway, I scored a spot in the shortest line. But I was behind ‘that woman’. You know who she is. She’s busy, she’s rushed, and she’s too good to be in a dollar store, but she has buy that last minute ‘Secret Santa’ gift and gift bag. Two things. $2.

She paid with a check.
Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…….

C’mon. It’s almost 2006. Get with the technology program! I understand checks are necessary for certain instances. But it’s a DOLLAR STORE. She bought $2 worth of stuff. Can you imagine the look of utter annoyance that must have been on my face? And if you’ve been stuck behind someone in a grocery store with a check, you have an idea how long it takes. But it takes even longer in a dollar store. There are so many verifications that have to take place. It’s mind numbing what people do sometimes.
