Mrs Furious said...: I try ;)

22 fucking bucks for 2 rotten pumpkins... which of course I had to buy since they'd already picked them out. Bastards.; October 28, 2008 at 7:29 PM
Julie said...: That is a flippin' rip off. I paid $4 for a huge pumpkin.; October 28, 2008 at 9:22 PM
STACI said...: Total rip off! What's up with them selling rotten pumpkins?

We skipped the pumpkin patch this year. Boys didn't care so I didn't push the issue. We're never home on Halloween anyway.; October 28, 2008 at 9:33 PM
Mrs Furious said...: I know! Can you guys fucking believe it?! Of course there were no prices but since the pumpkins at the grocery store were all $4 I didn't think they'd be much more than that. CRAZY.; October 28, 2008 at 9:49 PM
Kiki said...: I am totally forcing Ken to go to a local farm where we will pay through the nose for the "ambiance" of pumpkin picking...he's thrilled!!!

Did Kid lose that front tooth finally???; October 28, 2008 at 10:37 PM
artsci said...: My sister took my three kids for pumpkins a couple of weeks ago. It cost $35 just to get to the pumpkin patch by hayride, then they had to pay for the pumpkins by the pound (of course my oldest son picked the biggest partially-rotten pumpkin he could find).; October 29, 2008 at 6:59 AM
Chrissy said...: We were going to go to the pumpkin patch but saw a sign at the Fresh Market "3 Pumpkins for $10".
You can't beat that!

Picked our pumpkins and then went inside for a free cookie and a sample of hot cocoa.

I put the pumpkins in the back of the Tahoe and almost had them all split open against the back seat when we had to slam on the brakes to avoid a deer. Luckily, no damage to the pumpkins, deer or Tahoe. Yea!!

Works for me!; October 29, 2008 at 12:08 PM
Julie said...: What a rip-off! Cute pics though!; October 29, 2008 at 12:41 PM
Brenda said...: Here's our story... Pumpkins by the pound at the Pickin' Patch in town, with a max of $16.50 a pumpkin. So both of my children, and my HUSBAND, choose the largest pumpkins they can find. Hmmm...so that's $49.50 for three pumpins!! I myself chose what ended up being a $4 pumpkin. Then hubby turns to me at the checkout and says, "Can you get this?". WTF? He's definitely paying me back for his...; October 29, 2008 at 1:14 PM
Mrs Furious said...: Kiki,
YES!!! She's now got the big *cute* gap up front! I"m loving it :)

Amy,
Yeah that's a pricey venture.

Chrissy,
Our best pumpkin was 4 buck one from the grocery store. Believe me next year they can can pick them out of the big cardboard box at Earth Fare!

Gigs,
Ugh. You know Mr F would have done that ;); October 29, 2008 at 3:56 PM
