"Let's use the self checkout, yeah!" Deidara declared enthusiastically as everyone reunited and the kayak was admired. For whatever reason, the six others thought it would be a good idea to use the self checkout…even though they had at least 38763058367254956 items in the cart.

"Here, I'll do it." Sasori said, knowing that Deidara was not capable of scanning everything."

"Oh! Danna I'll help you, yeah." Deidara pleaded with hopeful eyes. Sasori gave in to him, who could resist him when he begged for anything…

"Okay, Danna we have to look for the barcode, yeah." Deidara said rolling one of the oranges around to find a bar code. Sasori had already scanned three items. He sighed.

"Deidara, there isn't a bar code on the damn orange! We have to weigh that as produce at the end of our bill." Sasori said. Deidara didn't notice that Hidan and Zetsu were handing him items to scan while Deidara searched for the bar code on the notebook paper.

"Danna! Danna! Here it is, yeah!" Deidara proclaimed scanning the notebook paper. Sasori had now scanned 10 items in the amount of time Deidara scanned one.

"Oh my god! Deidara you are such an idiot! Here let me scan!" Itachi threw Deidara out of the way; he and Kisame were instructed to take the kayak to the van. Naturally, Kisame and Deidara didn't think about going around the crowd of people in the checkout line in order to reach the exit…they went through them…knocking several people in the head with the kayak…it was a good thing Deidara was pretty. There was something about 'I'm sorry yeah,' when it accompanied those baby blues…well…blue…

Meanwhile, in the self-checkout the line was backed up into the aisles because the Akatsukis had way too much crap and should have let one of the employees do the scanning. People behind them were yelling which set Hidan off into a fit of rage so he tried to remedy the situation by praying…it didn't work.

"Okay, Itachi our total bill is $567.72. What card are we using?" Sasori asked. Itachi started digging through pockets. He handed his wallet to Sasori.

"Pick one." He told him. Sasori shoved all Itachi's phone numbers aside and pulled out a stack of cards, 2 cards were 'the leader's' they couldn't use those because they were currently maxed out. Sasori gasped.

"I knew it!" Sasori looked at Itachi with disappointment.

"What?" he asked.

"You and Deidara have a joint credit account at Express Men's!"

"That's no secret, we applied for that a long time ago…got 20 off our first purchase." Itachi said. Sasori sighed.

"It's not that. I don't' have a joint account with anyone. I've put up with his ass for a long time and he and I don't have joint accounts."

"You two had that American Express account but you closed it because Deidara kept trying to use it as a debit card." Itachi said. Now, the line was even longer and Hidan was in a shouting match with someone behind him. Zetsu was reading the tabloids nearby and Kakusu…well…he was trying to stay away from Hidan.

"You're right." Sasori said. He kept flipping through cards

"Itachi…why…why a Victoria's Secret card? Please tell me you're not hiding something from us." Sasori looked worried.

"Hey! It wasn't my idea!" Itachi smirked. "But, believe me, Deidara justified it really well. I mean it was like the most intelligent thing I have ever heard him say." Sasori gasped.

"Oooh! I know why you have this! That explains the black lace…"

"Shhhh…Deidara still doesn't know I slept with that girl…I told him I wouldn't." Sasori kept sorting through the stack.

"Okay, we can't use this Visa we're really close to the limit. Kisame went wild that one day in Pottery Barn…now we have matching in-tables and $1000 dollars debt to show for it." Sasori said sarcastically.

Meanwhile, out at the van…

"Oh my god! Kisame, yeah!" Did you know this van had an alarm, yeah?" The van's factory installed 'anti-theft' alarm system was blaring.

"No! I didn't! What should we do?" Kisame yelled. Deidara thought a moment, the alarm was still blaring, the lights were flashing and they were getting the looks. It wasn't every day that a blue shark-like man and a blonde tried to squeeze an 8 foot Kayak into a locked mini-van.

"Hey! Let's use the keys, yeah." Deidara said pulling the keys to the van with the 'Virginia Beach' key chain out of his pocket.

"Deidara! You had the keys to the van the whole time we've been trying to break in?" Kisame yelled over the alarm.

"Well…yeah." Deidara said using the keyless entry to deactivate the alarm. Kisame looked at him blinking.

"So….why didn't we just use the keys in the first place. Then we wouldn't have had to try and break in, we wouldn't have set the alarm off, and parking lot security wouldn't be coming over here right now." Kisame said.

At the check out lane, Sasori and Itachi had eliminated 16 different credit cards because they were either maxed or they weren't accepted at Wal-Mart.

"Okay, let's use the Mastercard; I know that one is fine." Itachi said not noticing that Hidan was trying to strangle a customer, and Zetsu and Kakuzu were eating grapes out of another customer's cart.

"Alright, it's right…" Itachi stopped and looked at the empty slot where the Mastercard should have been. "Damn it! Damn it, Damn it!" Itachi was not happy. "I gave it to Deidara before we came here today."

Trip to Wal-Mart: $567.72

Shopping with The Akatsukis: Priceless

"What have we learned Itachi… Don't give the cards away and then send Deidara on errands!" Itachi scolded himself.

"Well, I believe that it's your van since your license plate matches the registration records." The officer said. "Have a nice day." The officer left and Kisame and Deidara finally had squeezed the kayak into the minivan. Twenty minutes later it was discovered that Zetsu had a Mastercard and so they FINALLY paid for everything and left before Hidan killed anyone.

"Itachi, I have to sit in your lap, yeah. Kisame needs space in the back and you and I are the only ones small enough to fit in the same seat, yeah." Itachi rolled his eyes but nonetheless, everyone piled haphazardly…kayak and all into the van...the leader would be glad to get his things…
