Went to Walmart and bought things at two cash registers.
At the Customer Service counter, I spent $32.39 for two exchange carbon dioxide cylinders for my Sodastream Fizzi. The carbon dioxide cylinders are exchanged like propane tanks: one price for the gas and cylinder, another (lower) price just for the gas.
In the store, I spent $75.86 for a twelve-pack of Propel kiwi strawberry, a twelve-pack of Propel black cherry, a bag of celery, a roughly 2.5# beef chuck roast, two bottles of Sodastream Diet Cola flavoring syrup, two bottles of Sodastream Diet Root Beer flavoring syrup, a bottle of Sodastream orange flavor essence, a bottle of Sodastream raspberry flavor essence, a bottle of Sodastream mango flavor essence, two 1.5# bags of small redskin potatoes, a 2# bag of baby carrots, two black fine-point markers, and a gallon of whole milk.

Late this morning, I went to Kroger looking for stuff I couldn't find at Walmart. I was looking for Sodastream flavoring concentrates. I bought ten bottles at $5.99 each with no sales tax: six bottles of Diet Dr Pete (their version of a "pepper" flavor), a bottle of Diet Cola, a bottle of Diet Root Beer, and two bottles of Diet Strawberry Watermelon. Each bottle makes 36 eight-ounce servings (the standard serving size for carbonated soft drinks).

A friend of mine is over at her Mom's house by herself. She asked me to get some stuff at HEB, which is on the way there. So, I did.
First trip was $26.89 and six items: a value pack of chicken thighs, a six-pack of Propel Strawberry Kiwi, a six-pack of Propel Berry, a six-pack of Propel Mandarin Orange, a six-pack of Propel Peach Mango, and a six-pack of Propel Grape.
Then, I got over to her Mom's house and she asked me for some more groceries. Second trip was $87.75 and 31 items: a package of HEB Our Finest Ultra Strong bath tissue (she couldn't find her Mom's cache), four eight-ounce packages of HEB oven roasted turkey, four large avocados, four tomatoes, a bunch of bananas, two ham and salami po boy sandwiches for lunch, two packages of spinach wraps, two packages of organic whole wheat tortillas, two 1# packages of HEB 85% lean ground turkey, a 1# container of strawberries, two boxes of StoveTop chicken stuffing, two boxes of StoveTop turkey stuffing, a box of Velveeta rotini and broccoli mac & cheese, a box of lowfat Velveeta shells and cheese, a turkey po boy sandwich for lunch, a can of large black olives, a head of iceberg lettuce, a squeeze bottle of Hellmann's light mayo, and a bottle of Hidden Valley Ranch Light salad dressing.
The friend of mine is a turkey eating freak. I gave her the turkey po boy. She ended out giving it back to me with the statement "SWEET PICKLES! GROSS!" and I ate the rest of the turkey po boy. We split one of the ham and salami po boys, and I ate the other one by myself.

Went to Walmart and bought things at two cash registers.
At the Customer Service counter, I spent $32.39 for two exchange carbon dioxide cylinders for my Sodastream Fizzi. Now, I have three full cylinders and a fourth one in the machine. The cashier at Customer Service had never exchanged a Sodastream carbon dioxide cylinder. She had to get her manager to help her. She apologized for the delay, but I said "You learned how to do something new today, you'll be ready the next time I come back!"
In the store, I spent $32.76 for a twelve-pack of Propel berry, two bottles of Sodastream Diet Cola flavoring syrup, two bottles of Sodastream Diet Root Beer flavoring syrup, and a 24-pack of Walmart's Dr. Thunder for the kid who won't drink Sodastream stuff.
