I know right? There is a "gas out" coming up on April 15th so don't buy gas on that day people and maybe the prices will go down!

Does your local grocery store offer "BOGO" (buy one get one free) Publix and Winn Dixie in my neighborhood both have BOGO.
If so which are you always on the look out for so you can stock up? I never get any of it unless it's something I usually get. In Winn Dixie, most everything I stop for a look is way overpriced so I don't bother with the BOGO products. Getting one at regular price elsewhere is cheaper.

Do you watch Jeopardy ? Not since Trebek made his comment about few women on the show because women are simply not as smart as men.

Last time you had a Hot Dog ? I was a very small kid when I had a hot dog. It smelled bad and looked bad and I've never eaten another one. Just the thought of what might be in them was offensive. I grew up on home cooked meals with plenty of meats but my mom rarely bought hot dogs. Even back then it was junk food and nothing like that was ever served to my dad.

Are you planning om pulling any April Fools Pranks ? I'm never a prankster
