My Full Shopping Cart Felt Shameful

<p>Ididn&rsquo;t think about the fullness of my shopping cart until I entered the checkout lane. It was then I heard the cashier mumble under her breath, &ldquo;<em>well, this isn&rsquo;t going to be fun</em>.&rdquo;</p> <p>While her comment probably wasn&rsquo;t a personal hit against me, her utterance, maybe the tone of it, triggered an awareness in me, one I hadn&rsquo;t felt in a very long time. Why? Well, I hadn&rsquo;t left a grocery store with a full shopping cart in years, and definitely not since COVID. Have you seen the food prices out there lately? Grief!</p> <p>Anyway, that moment of guilt I felt, lining up my Mount Everest of heavy cans, jars and other big and bulky items took the runner-up spot to a different feeling which piled onto my mind right away.</p> <p><a href="https://readcultured.com/my-full-shopping-cart-felt-shameful-9577411bfeb8"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
