what the hecks of the day

In the 12 items or fewer line at the Stop & Shop. Customer in front of me had three items, and his bill was $69.00. The high-ticket item seemed to be meat (I was nosily reading the check out screen), but the package wasn't especially large - yikes.
The forthcoming moving "That's what I am" is set in California but was filmed in New Orleans. I'm glad to see the city getting an influx of cash, but that seems a little odd to me.
