I had a sweet tooth today so I decided to stop at Khabib's Quikie Mart in West Allis today.
The two pack of Mrs. Fields Chocolate covered graham crackers looked good, here' my $1.19 Khabib.
Get in the car, open em' up, and they're both this disgusting white-film covered chocolate squares.
Check the sell by date, are ya ready for it? June 1'st. Not June 1'st 2009, Not June 1'st 2008. JUNE 1'st 2007!!!!!!
This is the same quickie mart that I stopped one night around 11 for a pizza last year and found all the pizza's were completely thawed and their freezers were broke. The next morning the freezers were fixed and they were still selling all those refrozen pizza's.
I guess it's time to stop patronizing Khabib and his Quickie Mart.
They're actually really nice people. An Indian couple I think. Very friendly and they gave me money back and apologized profusely.
But I know that they don't worry about stuff like expiration dates or food that's gone bad. If I weren't such a regular customer I don't know that I'd have been treated so nicely upon returning the product.
There is a middle eastern family that runs the gas station closest to my house. They are always nice, particularly the son... but the tend to look at most of us as if they really want to say "Die American Scum!" Still... I go in there once or twice a month.

All I can say about the peeps who run the place by me is that the dad is clearly not an Anglo-phile. He is polite because that is his bread and butter, still... he's no fan. The son is a little friendlier. Mom keeps to herself.
