Roy looked down at the wheels of the steel cart. It made an irritating noise. " Oh great". He frowned. " Out of all the carts here".

He quickly walked past the produce toward the seasonal aisle. He noticed the candy bar minatures were on sale. He began to put bags into his cart. He was about to leave when he noticed something at the end of the aisle. It was a white display. " Hostess" he exclaimed with glee. He noticed the crumb cakes and the chocolate donuts. Then a smile came to his face. " Devil's Food zingers". He picked up a box. " I wonder if trick or treaters would like them".

He looked at his cart. He knew he was only supposed to get the candy bars. He loved the chocolate outside and the creamy filling inside. An idea came to him. " I'll just get a few boxes and mix them with the candy bars". He smiled as he put the zingers into his cart. With a sense of accomplishment, he paid for the groceries and drove home.
