Crumble Cult 
Dear Tony,
There is a chain of grocery stores here called Food City. They’re not in quite as bad shape as Food 4 Cheep, but I only go there when I absolutely have to. Because *ew*.
All My Love,
Jennifer
P.S. I need to add my 2 cents regarding the palette you went with. It looks beautiful. I think it’s perfect that Ernest’s sister is the brightest, most colorful thing in the whole store. I also love the little details you put in, like the labels on the boxes in the seventh panel. 🙂

Thank you, Jennifer! That’s very cool of you to notice the little details I put in there. And Food City does not sound like a grocery store chain that I’d like to frequent. We used to have a chain here called Food for Less (or something like that) and they were pretty dire if memory serves.

I noticed the varying shapes of bottles on the shelves and such, too. I imagine it took a long time to draw this particular strip.

Since I hate to grocery shop, I would be glad they’re closing. But it’s very catcy 22 since I gotta get groceries somewhere. I’ll let my husband figure it out. 😉

Good idea! Make them hubbies earn their keep, I say! 😛

This one rends me of a post-apocalyptic zombie scenario: cool! I was totally expecting the dead rat in the freezer to go after the customer…

Ha! That would be funny if it weren’t such a scary thought, S.J. 😛

Hahahahaha!!! 🙂 Well done, Tony! My God, you’re talented! I love that there’s not the need for too many different colours in this strip, and yet you found a way to maximize on the ones you did use. Good strategy.

Thanks Sophie. This particular strip was a challenge to colour. There were so many elements that I needed to keep track of in order for the overall colour scheme to work. Exhausting! 😛
