(( July 2015 )) "What's For Dinner??"

What if you ordered them, and/or the Wickles Pickles, to be delivered to your local Walmart?  I know if you do that with, say, Lowe's or Home Depot, there is no shipping charge since they just send the item on their delivery truck from their distribution centers.

Since Walmart carries them it might be worth a question at the service desk....

The 6-jar box & shipping on the Tony Packo pickles was $26.80 / $8.14 = $34.14

But, Holey Moley ~ the price on the Wickles was outrageous!  I buy them for under $4/jar at the local WalMart.  I ought to check how much it would be for ME to purchase & ship to you....

How'd you know they said they would do that for me?
It must have been, when I told them I knew Beth, the woman that moved to the Villages in Florida. The guy said, "Oh yeah, we know that " Lady!"
"We don't pull any punches when she's aroiund the town!"

Grilled Chicken Breast (bone-in, skin-on), summer squash sauteed with onions, lady peas with bacon and a cauliflower/pea/bacon salad.

Her brother in law worked in the coal mines, and after a day's work, he would come home, and bathe and relax in the what they called the reading chair under the reading lamp. He enjoyed reading the newspaper, and smoking one of his many pipes.

Well, my mom was there to help her sister clean, and she took all his what she thought dirty pipes, ans scraped all the caked inside burnt tobacco out, and washed them in soapy water.
When he got home from work the next day, he found the clean pipes, and cried. He explained to her, it took him years and years to get the pipes seasoned like that. She thought she was doing him of favor. LOL.... I feel his pain.
