Man, they come out of those dispensers fast, eh?

My fiancee and I went to Winco yesterday and I have been craving jelly beans like nobody's business. I saw they had giant dispensers with all the flavors I wanted!! Watermelon, buttered popcorn, black licorice, cotton candy, I was in heaven!

But pulling the handle on the coffee-style dispensers allowed WAY more to come through than I anticipated. Which, is fine. I can eat a lot of jelly beans and we don't have a candy store near us so when will I have this chance again?

Well, I ended up with 3.27 pounds (or 1.36 kilo) of jelly beans 😬

I bought my groceries, paid $92 for it all.

$30 is just jelly beans.

So I'll be snacking on these for a while....

My best friend said they're going to write math problems about me. 🥴

TL;DR I spent $30 on jelly beans due to my ignorance and strength.
