Daytime Shopping

While Lisa and I often try to do our larger-scale grocery shopping at WinCo in Reno, which is open 24 hours a day and thus suitable for going to shop in the wee hours of the morning, sometimes there is stuff that has to be done during the day, and today was one of those days. As soon as I could get clear from Day Jobbe, we headed to Reno, with our first stop being to dump recycling, which has to come first because it closes at 3 PM. We then went to West Marine, where Lisa looked for replacement light switches for her travel trailer without success. From there it was on to Cost Plus World Market where we had $5 store credit that was about to expire. Over to Sparks we then went to the Ace Hardware, and Lisa bought some nuts and bolts we were unable to obtain in Fernley. Finally we shopped at Raley's for groceries we can't get at WinCo, cashed in a number of coupons and a 5x bonus points offer.

As we were coming out of the store, a few flakes of snow started falling, so we headed for home. As we headed home, we remembered a few things that we meant to get, but none of them were important enough to back-track, particularly because we preferred to get home before dark
