"You're Kind of a Snob" part 2

I went to the grocery store last night and bought a 12 pack of regular Busch. My Kroger card knocked it down to 6.99. And though I said I was going to pay the extra couple of bucks for full flavor, when it came down to it that savings really called to me. And Busch is really pretty tasty. Kind of like one of those Budweiser Selects, the Marlboro Medium of beers.

I wonder how many other folks are combatting the rising fuel costs by buying discount brands? I know that one of my uncles has switched to Miller High Life Light from his usual Bud Light. And it's not like he can't afford to spend the extra. Choosing to save some money by buying a bargain brand beer, smokeless tobacco, or breakfast cereal gives us a little feeling of being in control. The oil companies can rape us all they want to because we really have no alternative. We have to drive. The mass transit in most American cities is so aggravating that no one with a choice is going to use it. I would have to spend 2 hours on the bus to get to work and I work 6 miles from my house. Which would you rather spend: four hours on the bus or four dollars? I'll hand over the four bucks to the gas man. And to make up for it I'll pick up some bargain beer.

But there is still no way I am drinking PBR.
