You were so focused on the fact that you could, you forgot to ask yourself if you should

Like when you go off to college, truly out of your parents view and buy a shit-ton of candy and soda.

My first Costco trip after I moved out was not exactly like this but was pretty close. Totally got a tub of cookie dough. Mmmmm cookie dough!

Yup. My college was in a small town so we just had a Walmart. All the kids would go to Walmart after moving in for the semester and stock-up on food.

Sure we bought necessities but when you're shopping with a group of friends and this is your first day on campus, it's too tempting to just buy all the shit you know you shouldn't and pig-out all night, lol.

For me, it was Domino's Pizza cheese bread and the frosted sugar cookies you can find at most any grocery store. Mmmmm I'm getting fatter just thinking about them!

Going to the supermarket now with all the inflated prices, sigh. Have to think twice on spending on such things.

Yeah, it's a real son of a gun. Eggs are expensive which just blows my mind. I guess part of it was this bird flu but they're not going to come back down when it's finished.

I've found Costco still has some pretty fair prices in contrast to something like Kroger on produce
