That is so true, I can never make it out of the grocery store with just my intended target.

Not if your money is severely limited... Then you come home with dreams AND the bread... Or go to the local food pantry for the bread... Think you've reminded me that... I gotta start volunteering more... to help the poor... Usually I send the Trolls... But I need to be good too...
