Local Woman Boycotts Grocery Store After It Increases The Price Of Her Favorite Wine

Which is totally justified.

Local woman, Amber Cain, has reportedly decided to boycott the local grocery store after the price of her usually-purchased bottle of cheap wine has recently increased. She reports to us that she is very angry, especially after all of the time that she spent finding her regular bottle of wine. "It's hard," she said in her discussion with us, "to find one that has the highest alcohol content for the lowest price, while also not tasting like utter crap on your palate."

It should be noted that her "refined wine palate" reportedly consists of the fancier (than the Two Buck Chuck), five dollar Trader Joe's wines, in addition to whatever else was on sale at the other grocery store that is closer to her apartment. This was, of course, before she found "The Wine." She refused to even name said grocery store (and never let on to what this wine supposedly was), stating that she guesses that she will have to drive an extra two and a half (or so) miles to Trader Joe's every time she wants wine...even though her favorite wine is not sold there.

"The Wine," as she calls it, was perfect in every way and paired with anything and everything. It had the perfect (14%) alcohol content, and was sold for a measly $8.99 plus tax. She was too justifiably distracted, to share what that wine was, but be rest assured, it was perfect.

However, since the price has thusly increased by a staggering two dollars, making it more than the ten dollars that she cuts herself off at for everyday wine, she has decided that she will no longer be buying it. She told us that she would much rather drive further to pay less for her wine than she would pay more for her wine at the grocery store that is across the street from her apartment (which, we should add, she can walk to). But we are sure that her boycott is totally worth it.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
