Needing a Coke
Today shortly before lunch I found a Coke cap that entitled me to a free 1-liter Coke product. I knew that a 10-15 minute walk away, the Grog Shop, was a place that not only carried 1-liter Coke product, but also honored the caps. So I set out on my walk at a good pace and made it there in about 12 minutes.
The current on duty operator of the Grog Shop was outside smoking. I handed him the cap so he wouldn’t have to rush his cigarrette and went in to retrieve my Coke. I thanked him and went on my way back.
As I was passing the U-Haul a man stopped me asking to buy my Coke. I told him ‘no’ and he started pleading to buy my Coke and started pulling money out of his pocket. I tried to tell him he could go to the Grog Shop to buy his own but he said he was waiting for someone. I decided he must need it really bad so I gave it to him for a buck.
At least I got some exercise 🙂
