Theory

Every Tuesday at the grocery store is Senior Citizen Day (10% off for those over 60). I swear, every Senior in town shows up. It's our busiest day during a normal week. We usually call the first day of the month "National Link Day" (foodstamps) and normally we are busy the first week of the month. This month, tho, has been slow. All month. Until Monday. Monday, we had Link Card after Link Card. And then yesterday-- lots of Seniors-- busy, busy. My theory? They all were sure they were going to be raptured, so they have only been buying food as they needed it the last few weeks. Why spend money on food you aren't going to need, after all! But since nothing happened, they all had to come in and stock back up! Again, just a theory.
