   Think they reuse the sign for yellow squash. “Maybe no one will notice it’s not a fruit.” 😉

   holy cow, at that price they have to make a funny joke out of it to get people to buy it! They are only 52c here and can get them for 39c on “Wacky Wednesdays”

  Good gracious! I had no idea curve yellow fruit could be so expensive. I won’t buy them if they are over 40 cents/lb in east Texas.

  Usually around .69 here in Ga. I’ve seen them as low as .39 and as high as .99 though. Terrible for the environment though. They have a long way to travel to get here.

    My favorite part is that the sign next to it says “BANANA ice mist” not” curved yellow fruit ice mist” Ha ha. Also agree with Skye. One of the gas station chains here sells bananas for 39c everyday.

    Wow! In Wichita, on Thursdays, you can get bananas for 19 cents a pound from Leeker’s grocery store or price match through Wal-Mart. Apparently, we would never eat bananas if we lived in Australia. But, aren’t mangoes cheap in Australia? They’re $1 each on sale here.

    Hysterical! You always have the most outrageous things on Fridays..Love ’em!

    On a side note, anyone know where I can find Sally Hansen pedicure coupon. Seems to have disappeared from 90210 and all other zip codes I have tried. If it’s gone, you might need to update your Target post Collin.

    Thanks for the laughs. And the help.

    Funny! I think you should have the person that submits the picture write a little story about their picture. Also why don’t you put who submits the picture?? Just wondering.

    I am so happy to see people use descriptive words these days. Why must they take the easy way out and call things by there name? But thanks, now I have a new thing to annoy my husband with when we go shopping. “Hey sweetie can you get me that shiny red somewhat circle thing.”
