Default The good old days...

When I was a kid, my Momma would send me down to the grocery store with a $1 bill, and I'd come back with 5 bags of potatoes, 2 loaves of bread, 3 bottles of milk, a hunk of cheese, a box of tea, and 6 eggs.

You can't do that now.

Too many fuckin' security cameras.

Yeah, but you can write bad checks now. You don't have to shoplift anymore.

Not around here. Places still accept checks, but they run them through a scanner to verify you have sufficent funds on deposit.

I was looking at the price of a coke at the local circle K this morning,$1.79. You can buy a Dayum beer cheaper.

When I was a kid my Mom would send me out for groceries too except I lived miles away from the closest grocery store. Our grocery store was called the garden and they had the freshest bounty around.
