Speaking of Discounts... any Veterans here?
The thread about Senior discounts made me call Publix to inquire.
Apparently it's only in the Atlanta chain where they offer Senior
discounts. Not driving to Atlanta to grocery shop, but thanks anyway.
However... John and I ate at a local chain restaurant called 'Barbara
Jeans'. I was flipping through one of those inserts they put on the
table, you know the kind... mostly touting desserts and other specials.
One said, 'Military and Retired Military discounts available'.
Unfortunately he'd already paid the check. But I noticed it so he asked
our server about it. Yes! If you're a veteran you get 5% off. Well
damn, who knew? So if you're a veteran you might want to inquire about
military discounts where you shop or if you're dining out.
OB Food: He had the meatloaf with brown gravy, mashed potatoes, squash
casserole. I ordered "chicken fingers". I figured a few strips of
fried chicken, no big deal. Turned out to be four battered and fried
*chicken breast halves*. I literally gasped when I saw the amount of
food on my plate. OMG! That plus the sides of squash casserole and
cabbage. As soon as she set the plate down I said, "I'm going to need a
to-go box." Needless to say, we snacked on leftover chicken "fingers"
for the next couple of days.
