Geocache Description:

There several grocery stores close to Parkdale Ave. This puzzle is based around a grocery store. Enjoy!



The Puzzle:

The aisles in "Parkdale Mini-Mart" are numbered one to six, starting at the entrance. Use the following clues to determine how the aisles are arranged:
- Cleaning products are in the aisle next to the beverages, and are not the first items you see when you enter the store.
- The meat aisle is closer to the entrance than the bread aisle.
- Cereals are two aisles before beverages, and meat is four asiles after produce.

What aisle number is the bread in? Let's call your answer "X"


Now use your answer to solve the final coords as follows:
N 44 37.ABC W 75 41.DEF

ABC: A and B are both "0", and C = "X" (your answer).
DEF: D = 0. To get EF: Multiply your answer from the puzzle by 8, and subtract 1.


The cache is in a high muggle area so please use LOTS OF STEALTH when heading to GZ, once there you should be somewhat concealed from view.

You are looking for a small pill container covered in black tape. Please return the cache exactly as you found it. Bring a pen.
