The Dauphin Co-op, with the Dauphin Humane Society, held a shopping spree this morning. Don Snitka ran for him and Eleanor, he was surprised he won the opportunity.
Don says they had a strategy planned.
“Eleanor and I planned on going to the meat department, the coffee department, we were going to go to the pizza part but we missed it, we got lots of soap for cleaning clothes, we were going to get dish soap but we missed out on that and we missed out on the pizza. Other than that, we did okay and we’re going to enjoy it.”
He had 3 minutes to fill as many carts as he could, he filled 2 and a half carts, with mostly meat, chicken, hamburger, pork, beef, some seafood, and then coffee and laundry detergent.
All that ended up totalling 1,171 dollars. There was a max budget of 1000 dollars, so Snitka paid for the rest.

The Dauphin Co-op also provided a donation of 4 bags of pet food to the Dauphin Humane Society, in the name of Ken Sawicki, who works at the Co-op and volunteers every Sunday at the Humane Society with his wife.
