Grocery Stores!

So we are going to be here for 18 days…..we are not going to eat out every meal.  Our villa has a full kitchen.  We figured we have many meals on our deck overlooking the sea.

So we found this little grocer...I would say its more like a really small corner store.  Of course they have a deli.  We figured we would get some essentials and than go do a grocery run later in the day.  As we grabbed our few items and paid our 75 Eoros…..80-83 bucks...the guy happliy says...see you tomorrow.  OK grocery man see you tomorrow….not at these prices...but OK

So I get on the internet to find out where the real supermarkets are…..I find some and get the names and addressess.  Does not seem bad….10-15 minute walk away.   Later that day when we were going down to the center we saw and open door and struck up a conversation with Rosalita.  She was a front desk clerk at a hotel on the way down the stairs.  While explaining all you need to know about Positano, I asked her about the supermarkets.  She says “oh yes...there is a big one right up those steps” ….my steps?.....my grocery closet?...”yes...si….si”  I tell her that it’s tiny….”no no no it’s big”  A young women behind her….who must of at one time actually seen a large store, starts to laugh.  She works with Roslita and tells us that the closet up the stairs is what they consider a big supermarket.

So my happy littel grocer has now seen me …..everyday.
