GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE!!! HELLO, CHERYL!!!
So.... yesterday, I parked in front of my building (I live in a multi-story condo) and I was carrying the toilet paper that got from Ralphs to the side door and I was approached by three elderly looking ladies asking me "Are there any Spanish speaking families in this building?" I said, "Why do you ask? This is privately owned property." I had the door opened by then and I slammed the door in her face. All of my neighbors speak English to me, I don't know if they speak other languages or not and I have not asked and I don't want to know.
It is officially spring and in a normal year, we'd see cyclical products on sale like allergy products, cleaning supplies for spring cleaning...and we'd normally see products for Cinco de Mayo but since Cinco de Mayo is on a Monday most folks will probably celebrate next Saturday or Sunday.
About two weeks ago, at the 805 & El Cajon Blvd, in San Diego, they closed the Spanish Market and it was the only one in my area. There's not a Spanish Market in any of the neighborhoods downtown, Hillcrest, University Heights, North Park, South Park, Kensington, etc. I am saying all this to say expect more neighborhood/ethnic market closures. Smaller stores always survived on smaller profit margins and with tariffs, they won't be able to survive the higher costs, they will just close down without notice.
There will not be coupon inserts in the Sunday newspapers. It’s Saturday …enjoy your day! On Sundays, I take the day off from blogging.
