My Daughter's Grocery List Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

ohjoy!: My daughter and family (including one of my great grandkids all now live back in Washington. As a result I will no longer be shopping for her in Michigan.

Decided it was best to archive this one, still the original container, still in great shape.

Goodbye, Grand Rapids, home of my alma mater.

Geocache Description:

When I came to visit my daughter a few days ago, she was just finishing up her school year – both teaching her junior high math students and taking the last course for her master’s degree. Because she was so busy, I offered to help in any way that I could. She suggested that I do her grocery shopping for her. When I agreed, she gave me a very specific list of items to purchase. Here is a copy of her list:

– 1 Meijer Gold Gelato Triple Dark Chocolate ice cream – 16 oz
– 1 pkg frozen bagged lima beans (for now subtract 1)
– 1 package Meijer radiatore macaroni
– 1 gallon Breyer vanilla ice cream
– 1 jar Smuckers natural peanut butter
– 1 frozen Marie’s Razzleberry pie
– 2 packages Voortman Windmill cookies
– 1 box Honey Nut Cheerios – 17 oz
– 1 bottle Prego Italian sauce – 3 cheese flavor
– 2 Red Baron pepperoni pizzas
– 1 loaf Meijer Classics 7-grain bread
– 1 Soft Soap refill bottle – shea butter
– 1 bottle Smuckers blueberry syrup

Since she is also a cacher, she thought it would be fun to give me the above coordinates rather than directions. While I was out and about, I placed a cache. You will have to solve the puzzle in order to find it. Once you have done that, the difficulty drops to 1.

The cache is a camouflaged 18 oz PB jar to be found within a mile of the given coordinates. (It's just the right size for making Caveboy_Ken’s PB cookies.) It contains an assortment of little things I had in the car with me at the time I decided to place it.
