A new grocery store opened up in our city... I didn't really need any groceries but I had to go check it out. Inside it looked like any typical Curry Land grocery...it was the size of a seven eleven and the isles were tight, but it was clean. Our first DejaVu moment happened when we looked at the packaging of items in the store, Exhibit A:
Exhibit B:
Z and I have been away from the States for a while and had to rack our brains why the label 'great value' looked so familiar. It all became a little clearer when we saw the store's welcome sign...
Oh...yellow smiley faces - Does this remind anyone else of the well know American Mega store Wal Mart? Or did we just enter the Twilight Zone?
And the font and design on their grocery bags seem oddly familiar too...by the way that is a whole bag of Apple juice, it is the time of year when the apple cider will runeth over! I stock up on every last apple juice in this town...so all you other Curry Land CAs get yours while supplies last :)
...ok back on track, so Z and I collected all the evidence that supported our claims that this new store is indeed Wal Mart incognito and called Dabby...sadly we woke Dabby up, sorry Dabs time zones are bummers...When we told him about our new store he asked us if the man at the door was wearing a blue vest and handed us a cart??? Then our shocking suspicions were even clearer... The door guy did indeed have a blue vest, in fact all the workers had blue vests...and he handed me a cart on my way in! So if this store is indeed what we think it is, life in Curry Land will never be the same.
