I had an unusually pleasant visit to the Pomona Stater Bros. this morning.  Imagine my surprise to see the usually empty La Brea bread basket full of not one, but *three* types of La Brea bread.  (Perhaps there's really something to the great Pomona revitalization!)  I went out of my way to tell Manager Scott Smerek that I appreciated the baguette presence in the store, since I'm usually the one complaining to him about their absence.
From there, I remembered that I had a bunch of change in my purse, so I stood in line with three other people waiting to use the Coinstar machine.  Since I was in a LaBrea bakery-induced euphoria, I left about four pennies in the Coinstar before cashing out.  I told the woman behind me that she was welcome to have my four pennies (wow, am I giving).  Then I stood in line behind two guys buying their morning candy and beer. When it was finally my turn to check out, I was really not all that suprised to find four pennies waiting there for me in the Stater Bros. change holder.  
Karma:  it's alive and well at Staters in POmona.     
THE END
