Feeling adventurous so I decided to swim through the masses at Chino Wal-Mart. On a Sunday! Good news is it wasn't that crowded. Hard economic times when even the crowds at an Inland Empire Wal-Mart are thin. Discussing high unemployment rates in the Empire is not the hot topic here today though. And neither is Wal-Mart's terrible business practices since Sam Walton's passing. Let's talk about what I went to look for.
110 film.
I'm never quite prepared to go into Chino Wal-Mart. It's enormous. I mentioned exactly that previously. Which is exactly the last time I went. It's a shock every time you walk through the doors and see a supermarket in addition to the usual. Even the one we went to in Jackson, TN was not as big--sorry, that's a story for another time. Seriously though. This is what I had to navigate:
Look at the ceiling. Look how far back it goes! I got winded just walking from electronics to cosmetics. Then looking for string cheese. Do you know how much cheese they have here? Racks and racks and shelves and deli cases and fancy cheeses. I love cheese but this is just stupid.
Anyway. Found the film! There were two rolls left and guess who got those. Not expired but marked 09 and probably the last of whatever they'll carry there. Cost was four dollars and change apiece. Also limited myself to a single pack of Polaroid 600--fifteen and change. It all expires this year. It's all obsolete. That's it! MAYBE???
Hey, smoke em if you got em.
Now what should I shoot?
