I buy those things and most other non-food items at the dollar store, not
the grocery store.

Heh. It's illegal to sell anything other than beer in a grocery store in
TN. They cannot get a liquor license which is required to sell wine and
liquor. And you can't buy beer at a liquor store. And there are still dry
counties in TN. Lynchburg, TN, where they distill Jack Daniel's whiskey is
in a dry county. They can make it, but you can't legally buy it in that
county. Go figure.
