My store is great. I used to have something against big box stores until this one rolled in. I think it had to do with the lousy Walmart shopping experience I would constantly get when trying to buy something simple like underwears. However the new Milton Superstore isn’t like other box stores since this one doesn’t smell like cheap burning plastic.

Yes, the smell of a store plays a big role in the experience. Would you want to buy underwears from a store that smelt like McDonalds? How about burning cheap plastic? What do you think the underwears are going to smell like before you put them on? I rest my argument.

The other thing I like about my new Superstore is the PC/No Name label. I grew up on that stuff. We always had something like No Name Yogurt or No Name cigarettes lying around the house.

The more yellow I saw the more likely the family would go somewhere cool for vacation. I remember one year my brother wanted these stupid snack-pack shit things in his lunch and suddenly mom was shopping at the A&P. That was also the same year we took our family vacation to the birth house of Alexander Graham Bell.

Tour Guide: “Alexander lived here until he was 5 years old before moving-“

AnnK Aged 9: “Did he invent anything cool here?”

Tour Guide: “Uh… no.”

AnnK: “This sucks and I want to go home….” (followed by severe temper tantrum.)

Next year we bought only No Name brand stuff and we got to go to Wonderland. The yellow helped in saving my dysfunctional family.

Hey, one year my mom bought my dad a 4L jug of No Name malt vinegar for a Christmas gift. If that doesn't scream "WTF" then maybe you should join my mom's stich and bitch on thursdays.

Superstores are pretty boss. They have these big bins full of DVDs and video games that no one in their right mind would pay full price for discounted to $5 each. To me that says “easy birthday gift”. Sarah is getting a copy of Barbie’s Fun and Fashion game for the DS system where she can play as Barbie’s fashion consultant. She will hate it but its better than a 4L jug of vinegar.
