Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!

Thanks for the new thread, Dave!

And I fixed the OP because you didn't copy and paste it exactly right.

And great title!

Yeah, I know, Dave. I've walked past them a few times.

I don't buy them, though.

Hi, sum1!

Hi, Rita!

Yeah, I know you do.

We call them "chips" because they're dried potato slices that have been either fried or baked, so we call them potato chips.

Alex - thanks for making the title larger

not a potato chip fan or just not generic brand?

**PhoenixRising** · 03-17-2019, 03:59 PM

You're welcome, Dave.

I just copied and pasted the OP from the previous thread.

I like potato chips.

What kind all depends on what I'm in the mood for. Baked, kettle cooked, crinkle-cut, etc.

But you don't buy chips at Walmart ...and you even get a discount?

sum1 · 03-17-2019, 10:06 PM

Thanks for starting, Dave.

Make Them Laugh · 03-18-2019, 05:03 AM

Sum...welcome

**PhoenixRising** · 03-18-2019, 02:31 PM

Hi, sum1!

I hope you're feeling okay and you got some sleep.

Yes, I do get a discount, but I don't buy much stuff there. Just soup and some simple things. I don't really eat chips all that much. My mom buys them.

I worked at a grocery store for 3 months before going home for summer school in college... and had to shop there b/c it was the only grocery store within walking distance. But its understandable that people don't want to shop at the place where they work.

**PhoenixRising** · 03-18-2019, 04:42 PM

Wow, I had no idea, Dave.

Well, yeah, the atmosphere where I work isn't where I'd like to shop. I prefer shopping at my local supermarket, which is actually closer to me.

I do 80 percent of my food shopping at the grocery store

Me too, Dave. I have Acme and Shop Rite where I live, but I'm guessing you have something different.

I'm sorry I just missed you.

I left to get dinner and then I went to bed.

Make Them Laugh · 03-19-2019, 07:01 AM

Alex...hope you had a great dinner yesterday

ok...limited posting today...

**wickedrum** · 03-19-2019, 07:01 AM
