At the grocery story today I noticed that Kemps has started putting milk in some new fancy type of jug. "Neat", I thought, "I'll try that." Then when I opened the cooler door I noticed that the new fancy jug costs a dollar more than the traditional jugs that are still available way down on the bottom of the milk racks where you'll never see them because the new jugs look so darn fun and they suck you in like a tractor beam just like the marketing weenies hoped they would.

As I grabbed for an old style jug, I bitched to Libby - and I suppose anyone else within earshot - about the dollar upcharge and the sneaky product placement of the newer ones. Libby just rolled her eyes, but this one lady standing near us went back over to the cooler and switched her new jug for an old one.

Score one for the loudmouthed jackass.
