It's Mimi on the line. Electronic gadgets have taken over our lives it seems. I can't go anywhere without seeing someone talking on a cellular phone or fixated on one of the newest toys. Doesn't it annoy you? On the other hand, how did we ever get along without them?

Welcome to The Queen's Meme #77

Seven Royal Questions on Tuesdays

The Grocery Store Meme

The last time I went grocery shopping I came home with way too much chocolate. It wasn't supposed to be that way. I went for mangoes. But the chocolate kept calling my name.

1. Do you make a list when you go grocery shopping?

Yes.

2. Do you buy more groceries when you're hungry?

No.

3. Coupons. Use 'em?

Only if it's a really good deal.

4. Have you ever complained to the manager of your grocery store?

Yes.

5. Do you like to buy groceries at huge chain stores like WalMart? Or do you shop exclusively at food stores?  I usually stick with food stores.

6.  How much time do you spend reading labels in the grocery store?

Long enough to check the expiration dates.

7. Do you push your own grocery cart to the car and return it?

I return in to the cart corral.

8. What is the one food item you always buy at the grocery store that you can't live without?

I can't live without Creme Brulee Creamer :)

The Queen's Meme #15 ~ The Shopping Madness Meme

Welcome to The Queen's Tuesday Meme #15
Sometimes silly. Sometimes serious.
Always fun!
Step out of the box. Be creative.
Use your imagination.
No one's answers are quite like yours.

This meme is called
The Shopping Madness Meme (aka The Naked Mannequin Saga)

1. What is favorite item to shop for and why? Clothes for Lauryn.  Why?  Because she's adorable!

2. Quality vs. Price. Will you buy off-brand replicas at a discount store or must you have the real thing? Why or why not? I buy quite a few off brand things but there are a few things I have to have the name brand.  For instance, A-1, no other steak sauce compares!

3. Have you ever asked a sales clerk to remove something from display if it is the last one in the store? Tell us what special something would make you strip the clothes off a mannequin.
(which begs the question...Are all mannequins born naked?) There have been quite a few times that I've had to ask for a shoe that's on display.  I find one my size in the box and the other is hooked on to the display.  I would not strip a mannequin and because of the movie Mannequin, I'm going with yes, they are born naked.

4. I really don't care if a guy goes shopping with me. I'm in my own zone and always have a plan. Are you an alone-shopper or would you like to have company?  I prefer my hubby to go with me.  He can push the cart and deal with people in the way while I grab what we need, toss in it the cart and move on.  I'm not  a big fan of shopping.

5. Have you ever done anything other than actually try on clothes in a dressing room? (I have no idea why this question followed the previous one. Ahem.) No.

6. Do you like or do you get annoyed when salesclerks and store management follows you around asking "May I help you?" a million times? (I have no idea why this question followed the previous one.)  It does annoy me.  If I needed help, I would say so.



7.. Create your very own store-brand name. (ie; Toys 'R Us, WalMart) What would YOUR establishment's name be?

Place the name on this sign. When we are finished with this meme, I'll put them all together and we'll have our very own shopping mall.
