Drabble by Kevin Fagan for November 18, 2018

Looks like a whole family is going to be ill for a few days…

What idiots. With a family that size the milk that expires on the 25th will be long gone by then.

I think I may have spotted the flaw in Ralph’s reasoning.

Can’t wait to see what happens to that poor turkey next week! O<|];o)

I get tired of these “men are incompetent at life skills” jokes.

I spent 22 of my 45 years of working in a grocery store, so I am always checking dates. I even sometimes revert to facing some of the items making it easier for shorter people reach higher shelves. Old Habit!!

Again, Millennials, those aren’t expiration dates — they’re sell by dates. You still want to get the latest date possible, if you think you’ll have it in the refrigerator very long (like I do), but that 1 day past jug would still be good for 3 or 4 days at least.

I get 4-5 days after the date on milk.

I get all my grocery shopping tips from GoComics. And, my coupons.

Nice to see there are still people around who I helped save from the Y2K bug.
