CVS: What a decision!

I took my youngest to CVS today. Usually when she goes shopping with me, she asks to buy candy, and I say no. But this week, with the free M&M Mars singles deal, I was able to say yes!

I told her she could pick two of the candies that had a yellow tag (marking the sale) under them. And what a decision she had to make. She examined each kind of candy, trying to decide which would be the best to pick. After quite a while of studying and head-scratching, she picked one package of plain M&Ms and one Dove dark chocolate bar. That's my girl!
