Flu Shot at Giant Pharmacy

We haven’t been to the grocery store since March 13. We went at midnight and haven’t returned. Since then we have been getting our groceries delivered instead. We primarily use Giant because we shopped there every week. But some things can’t be found at Giant so we have also used Instacart for Fresh Market, Wegman’s, and Harris Teeter. But we needed a flu shot and have gotten them at Giant before, along with the shingles shots. So we finally decided it was time to go back to the store even though I wasn’t too keen on the idea. The pharmacy closes at ten PM, so we got there at nine. No one was in line so we were processed quickly, even though it looked like they weren’t too sure they could do it. Once done, we ran through the store getting angel food cake - an item I simply can’t find anymore - six bottles of Diseno Malbec (our Total Wine Store is out of stock), apples, lettuce, eggs, bananas, potatoes and tomatoes. It was weird driving at night for the first time in six months. We still had to clean everything off when we got home which always makes grocery shopping so much longer. The store had a few customers - one not wearing a mask. All in all it went well, but I don’t want to go back again any time soon. We are in the “at risk” age group and I don’t want to undo all the good after months of hibernation as long as I can help it. The next appointment is with the eye doctor and I’m not looking forward to it.
