Grocery shopping the weekend before Thanksgiving
　　Gimi: Wow, looks like we made it just in time. It's packed in here.
　　Holly: Yeah, people always buy out the stores before the big holidays.
　　Gimi: Here're the turkeys. How big of a bird did you want to get?
　　Holly: Well, we've got about ten people coming to dinner. So the bigger, the better.
　　Gimi: All right, this one's the biggest. Are we ready to check out?
　　Holly: Not so fast, big guy. We haven't even started! I need everything on this list.
　　Gimi: Uh, can I wait in the car?
