Shopping for Food [Very Open]

[lackofdarkwings.livejournal.com]

Matt was many things, and budgeting finances was one of them. As such, he found the local equivalent of a No Frills after some searching and had sent people on a mission. Specifically to pick up what they needed, be it clothing, supplies both personal and regular, and devoted a small chunk of money they all set aside to food. Mostly a canned supply, but whatever they wanted personally had to be carefully sorted out.

Matt was determined to make their money last, and he was pushing a cart after calculating the cost mentally. "Not bad. This is about a quarter of the money from my own stock."

He was whistling as he turned onto the local equivalent of a dairy asile. Seriously, it was more like a No Frills combined with a Walmart, the store was so huge and incredibly cheap. It was obviously the go-to building for warehouse level clearance.

Xander was on a special hunt. Basically for twinkies, chips, donuts. Or whatever was the local equivalent. Because he had been *craving* snack food for ages. He had enough maturity and practicality to get some real food.

It's just the balance was tipping more to the snack food, and hey, at least it's filled with so many preservatives that it'll last a long time on the ship.

Matt turned the corner and nearly ran into Xander for a moment, backing up. "Oh sorry man," he said with a little grin. "Didn't see you around the corner."

Xander just quickly retrieved a large bag of chips that had fallen.

"No problem, man. Easily fixed."

"Thanks. You're one of the ship guys right? I saw you in the Obs deck. I'm Matt." said Matt.

"Yeah, I'm Xander, how's it going?" He grinned and shook his hand. "Just stocking up. Other than that Asian food spread, the chow has been seriously lacking on the Oooky Ship Stacy for a long time."

"I hear that. The Bus is lacking some serious food storages too. Looks like the replenishment spell has yet to kick in, so I'm getting a whole bunch of stuff. A lot of the residents pitched in with some of their food, so I'm not spending all of mine." said Matt. "Thankfully we've got one of the fridges on board the size of god."

"The Bus? Oh yeah. I think I saw it around. Huh. And sure, just helping out with the collective food. And people need to discover the wonders that is snack food. You know how many people I had to explain chips and Twinkies too?"

"Man we're so short on that too," laughed Matt. "I'll leave that for a last minute shopping trip. I need to still buy clothing for myself."

"Chips and Twinkies, man I haven't had those since I got popped," sighed Matt. "We had a lot of popcorn but that was about it."

"Me neither, and it's been months or at least a year since I had anything resembling some chocolatey goodness."

Xander nodded, "Oh yeah, I grabbed some clothes too." He's got slightly better from his loud shirt and shorts days. Slightly. His fashion sense is still decidedly a bit off the wall. He's just more subtle about it when he does it these days.
