Pam, at least now people don't come in and complain about the price of gas, as if you had something to do with it. What do they complain about now? Price of milk?

Surprisingly no complaints at all. We get compliments all the time now instead of the complaints. It's quite a nice change.

Okay well maybe some complaints about the price of milk. It is quite high for the convenience of convenience.

If I had a complaint it would be the price of Diet Mountain Dew. I buy it on sale at $2.50 a twelve pack. When in convenience store it is over $1 a can. That is why I travel with a small cooler full of soda and ice.

In our store it's $3.09 for an 8 pack. Quite pricey.

Yes my new pet peeve. Pepsi has now come out with an 8 pack. Selling it as if it were a 12 pack. Saw and ad 4 packs for $10. Up until a couple of weeks ago I was buying 12 packs for that price. Now they try to slide in an 8 pack at the same price. A 33% increase in price.

Pepsi doesn't even provide us 12 packs any longer. Only the 8 packs. Okay that is one complaint. Customers want their 12 packs.
