Michele's dream and nightmare? $2 a gallon in the purse of a ... :-)

I was just down in the basement, clearing out some old boxes and stuff when I came upon my first purse/handbag. :-) A cheap plastic affair, it still looks reasonable-ish; let me put it this way: if I didn't already have one, I'd consider using it. It's so bland it's not out of style or anything. I'll put it to the side; perhaps I'll use it, but I'll more likely donate it to some charity shop.

Anyway, I found within it a stick of lipstick (a nice deep red; no I'm not getting up and going to my makeup kit to see what it is!), 12c (yippee! I'm rich... Ish...), a Stop-n-Shop loyalty card and a receipt for 16 gallons of gas, totaling $33.50. I think it's from June 2005? It's very faded.

Two bucks a gallon - can you imagine that, now? (Don't answer that if you're in England!)

PS Michele Bachmann supports free markets and the imposition of price controls on petrol... She's not too fond of the gender-nonconforming, either! :-)
