The man really ate the grapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why you can\u2019t grocery shop in every neighborhood. This wouldn’t have happened at my Kroger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The scene <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My aunt asked me to drive her to the store this Tuesday for a grocery run. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being the upstanding niece I am, I said, “Yeah, let\u2019s do it, I\u2019ll pick you up around 11ish.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My mom is off this week; she\u2019s coming along for the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was a tad bit late <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Never be late because if I left my house at 10:45 a.m., I would\u2019ve never seen this nasty scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got to my aunt’s house around 11:17 a.m. We headed to the first stop, Walmart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walmart was chill, it\u2019s one that my mom and I frequent every once in a while. I found my bagels that were literally MISSING.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We leave Walmart and head to Aldi. My aunt is a cost-effective shopper. She\u2019s one of those, \u201cI can get this for a better deal\u201d. So am I, so I am down for the drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aldi was cool; we kept running into the same folks who seemed to come near us on every aisle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I told my mom, \u201cI wonder whether Beyonc\u00e9 feels like this. To have someone following you LITERALLY everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, we left and headed to the fruit market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The disappointment started at the fruit market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After that fiasco in Aldi, my mom took a break. She was over the hustle and bustle of grocery shopping on a random Tuesday, and everybody was outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michigan finally had a warm day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you know about the local fruit market organizations in Michigan, they are always PACKED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn’t matter what time of day, and it was senior citizen discount day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ooh wee! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Occasionally, taste testing a grape<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Never test taste the grape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t get me wrong, nobody wants sour grapes. I saw people grabbing one or two; I paid it no mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was too busy, annoyed because this man kept following me in the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everywhere I was, he was too. Like bro, I will call the cops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point, I need personal security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And they didn\u2019t have my raspberries! I was PISSED.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
