+chancerider Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Well, at least you were grocery shopping.... I dragged my husband into a military surplus store to shop for ammo cans, camo duct tape, and decon containers! I couldn't use the "I need a few things from the grocery store" on him in this instance Quote Link to comment

+gof1 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I can quit caching any time I want. Matter of fact I have quit three times this week alone! Quote Link to comment
+Super_Nate Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Ummm.....that is paying way to much for containers! Try your local Dollar Tree and you can get 6 containers for the price of 1 that you paid for. Quote Link to comment
+2ofHis Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I came "out", as well as my wife. We don't pretend, or camoflage our intentions. "Hey, let's go to the dollar shop; we're getting low on swag!" It's so refreshing to live free and out in the open, unafraid of what our friends, family, and/or neighbors might say. We're addicted and proud! Quote Link to comment
+TheAlabamaRambler Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 My neighbors must think I have lost my mind... or my income! Several tiimes I have stopped and grabbed interesting containers I saw in their garbage cans in the alley behind our houses. I can imagine them peering out through the curtains saying "dadgum, there's that poor old Manley, out dumpster-diving again"! Ed Quote Link to comment
+Bad_CRC Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 yesterday I left my father's retirement party with 2 empty heavy plastic airtight containers that had contained food. Quote Link to comment
ocarina_21 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 The advantage of Geocaching as an addiction is it won't kill you. (Unless you walk off a cliff) It is a good thing to be addicted to, and so, don't be ashamed if you have to go out at 3 in the morning to do a quick micro to get your fix. It's something to be proud of, not something to hide. As for spending money on the habit, that's why money was invented. The ancient Lydians said, "Here, take these coins; you can spend them on swag!" Quote Link to comment
+llatnek Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 In my neck of the woods we have monthly GeoHolic Annonymous meetings. Even before these started I knew I was a cacheaholic. So when I was asked to attend a cacheaholic's lunch meeting, I replied: A true cacheaholic would take the first step by admitting he/she has a problem. Since I don't have a problem, I'm not a cacheaholic. Since I'm not a cacheaholic, I don't need to attend meetings. Since I don't need to attend meetings, I won't be there with you guys on Monday. Since I won't be there with you guys on Monday, I'll just go to work as normal (unless I blow off work to go cacheing). hmmm, wait a minute......... Quote Link to comment
+Lighteye Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 It is a complete and utter coincidence that the 10 pack of Tylenol comes in a small tube that is just PERFECT for stages in a multi. I mean, I am going to need the Tylenol eventually, right? I just prefer to pay more for the small package as it is more portable than the big bottle. Ok, I give. I DID buy it in the small overpriced 10 pill pack because I needed more micro containers for stages in a multi I am laying out. Quote Link to comment

Try your local Dollar Tree and you can get 6 containers for the price of 1 that you paid for. Oh contraire... bying a good ammo can come in handy in many situations. I have a friend who went to a canoe-ing camp for 6 weeks and said that she fit all her valuables into it and It kept them clean and dry as they tramped through mud pits 5 feet deep. they only paid 10 bucks for that container... over priced... i think not Quote Link to comment

A while back, my wife questioned me about the gallon jar of pickles that showed up in our fridge. I had to explain that I needed a pressure chamber to cast some new micros.

+briansnat Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 (edited) I have a shelf full of containers in the basement that I salvaged from the trash, painted camo and will probably never use. My hides either go in ammo boxes or Lock n Locks, so I don't even know why I bother with these other containers. I guess I could start putting them in caches for others.

+9Key Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 On occasion I find myself cruising garage sales looking for unusual containers or swag items. I have boxes full of odds and ends I'll probably never use. No hope for me either. Quote Link to comment
+humanloofa Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I went from a big city, were I had two army surplus store five miles from me. I'm now in a smaller town and am still trying to find one that will suite my needs as a cacher. How can you have a surplus store and not have ammo cans decon containers, or MRE's? The two I have been to have mostly clothes and hunting related items. I have two spots that need a cache, but ironicly all my ammo cans are full of ammo. I could take the ammo out of one, but than I would not have to travel (cache) around to find an acceptable store. Nope I'm not addicted at all. As I am writing on the forums, planning a cache route to a town seventy miles away to search for a store that sells ammo cans, when I could accomplish it with a phone call, all while eating breakfast at a village inn on a laptop I had to get to log my finds as I moved across the country. Nope not addicted at all. And they best part of all is you can relate to this. Quote Link to comment
