Today I bought milk

[gladeofheaven]

So, I finally ended up in Select and Save (after a long saga involving Murder She Wrote, the Chapel and a lot of rain) and stood in front of the milk.  They had all three types of green milk, the one pint bottles were 49 pence with a best before date of the 27th, and the two pint bottles were reduced to 40 pence with a best before date of tomorrow.  And I didnt know which one to buy!  The one pint one clearly wouldnt be enough, but I wasnt convinced I could get through the two pints before they went off.  Thinking back, I suppose the key question would have been whether I would get through one pint of the the two pints before it went off, but that didnt occur to me at the time.  I knew that four pints would be too much.  So anyway, I'm standing there for some time, trying to make a decision.  Eventually I chose one, took a few steps away, changed my mind and went back, but ended up with a definate decision made.

I got the other things I wanted and went to the till.  When I was waiting in the queue I thought to myself how impressive it was that I could carry all the things without needing a basket, and as I examined the clever  way I was managing it I suddenly noticed that I was in fact holding two bottles of milk, a two pint bottle and a one pint bottle!  And I couldnt remember which one I'd decided on!  Nor could I work out how it was I had two anyway.  So I had to go back to the milk aisle and make the decision all over again.  I chose the two pints, because it was cheaper :)
