dr. pepper (or lack thereof)

those of you who know me well know i have a slight addiction to the aforementioned tasty beverage
so i haven't seen any dr.pepper since i've been here
no biggie, i can deal with other forms of caffeinated goodness or (god forbid) none at all
but yesterday i found a 3 L bottle

devan (the american dude from WVU) and i were killing time downtown between classes, wandering around, popping in and out of shops and getting a mental map of the place down packed
off, off the city center, there was a hole in the wall asian/indian grocery store
both of us having a curiosity for such things popped in

there it was, written in chalk on the sandwhich board in the shop foyer
"DR. PEPPER 3,L 5,50EURO"

5,50 euro.... current exchange rate makes that like 8 bucks....

i wish i wasn't so cheap sometimes... but i'm glad i'm not that addicted

also! i have my bank card activated now... sweet sweet access to the little money i made this summer

i can go back to that lovely little grocer now and find some kick ass spices and whathaveyou
