Yesterday I worked at the Hospital Auxiliary gift shop. It wasn't my regular day, but I was filling in for vacationers. (Ones that headed to warmer places) It was a slow day. Few customers. The chip price and bag size went up recently and we sold none. In the past we would sell 3-4 bags per day, at the least. Cappicino sold well, probably due to the cold weather. But our best customers are employees, so can't blame the weather for that. We had good sales before Christmas and in a couple weeks people will be getting ready for Valentine's Day and gifts will pick up again. I kept busy though, arranging and rotating candy and snack items. We were lucky and had nothing subject to the peanut butter recall.
