\"Hot<\/p>\n

The national grocery store chain I shop at is a tease.<\/p>\n

There I said it!<\/p>\n

She’s a tease and if she keeps doing it, I’m going to have to do my shopping at another grocery store. Sure I have to pay a little more for things, but a man can only take so much.<\/p>\n

She teases me with her voluptuous “Buy One, Get One Free”\u009d deals. Or her sexy “10 for $12.00″\u009d deal. Sure I don’t need twelve boxes of Kleenex, but it’s 10 for $12.00!<\/p>\n

She tells me things that get me so excited, but always lets me down. For example, for weeks there’s been a place for those Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pop Tarts with a “Coming Soon”\u009d label. Every week when I come in to shop I expect to see some Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pop Tarts, but every week I’m met with the same old “Coming Soon”\u009d label.<\/p>\n

My emotions aren’t some kind of game you can play with. Don’t play games with me!<\/p>\n

What kind of sick and sadistic grocery store are you? Teasing me with your 2 for $4.00 sale on Pop-Tarts, but not having the Pop-Tarts I really want. I’ve had to settle for the S’mores Pop-Tarts and Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts. <\/p>\n

Sure the S’mores Pop-Tarts were good<\/a> and the Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts were really good, with its fudge flavored crust, white vanilla filling, and whipped cream flavored frosting with colored candy sprinkles that tastes great either toasted or frozen. Sure I have to say that the Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts has overtaken S’mores Pop-Tarts as my favorite Pop-Tarts flavor, but I know that’s just your way of trying to cover up your issues.<\/p>\n

How much longer are you going to keep playing games with me? You think I’m some ordinary customer. I have your savings card! I’m a regular customer. Doesn’t that mean anything to you? I thought I was special.<\/p>\n

That’s it! I’m through with you. I’m done with your stupid \u201cBuy One, Get One Free\u201d sales. I’m moving on from your \u201c10 for $12.00\u201d\u009d deals. I’m cutting up your savings card and I’m going to shop somewhere else.<\/p>\n

Why did you have to do this to me? I really believed we had something special.<\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Hot Fudge Sundae Pop Tarts

\nRating:<\/b> 8 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Tastes great frozen or toasted. My new favorite Pop-Tarts flavor.
