Why do people look at me funny? Why do people give me dirty looks? Why do people make fun of me?
Is there some silent rule or law that a person cannot buy a full cart of groceries?
One time I actually had somebody (another customer) at Wal-Mart tell me that it was time for me to go home.
Shopping with two kids in a crowded store and worrying about whether I will have enough money to pay for it all is bad enough, but having people make me feel bad for getting enough to last me a couple of weeks or a whole month is just plain wrong.
