Wants me to go to Ross tomorrow, Tuesday as there's 15% on Tuesdays. Told her it's only for seniors and she has to be in there, asked me to call Ross and ask. I called Ross and was verified 15% OFF,for seniors is that seniors needs to be there. Says "cream puff" I got from Vons last Saturday, fell off the floor as it was a bit open. (So that's why there's paper towels by the fridge floor.) But I didn't found the "cream puffs" either on the floor or on the trash, only the plastic thing where it was was on the trash and it was empty. Told her I losened it up for her so she could easily open it. Got the idea of calling Vons,and told her I may need to get more dog foods too, so she wanted me to still try and tell the bakery what happened and maybe they will give her a free cream puff. Says I could go tomorrow on Ross on my way since she still owes me hours, I could used an hour to be in there and just go to work an hour later. Wrote a check for Vons. I turned on tv before leaving.
