Photo of the day: ONLY IN NEW YORK – Grocery shopping by cab!

TAXI GROCERY SHOPPING

Photo of the day: ONLY IN NEW YORK – do you see a woman going to the upscale trendy Trader Joe’s supermarket on Sixth Avenue in the Chelsea neighborhood to do her grocery shopping, then only to hail a cab to take her groceries home, therefore doubling  her bill.  In Queens and Brooklyn the ladies have shopping carts, in Manhattan – they have cabs…only in New York

    …or the old joke: a lady orders a chocolate sundae, waiter asks if she’d like a cherry on top “Oh no, I’m on a diet.”
    Yes, logic – baskets in back.
