🐀🧈 SOME SHOPPERS THIS WEEK ARE GETTING… UNEXPECTED 🐀🧈 SOME SHOPPERS THIS WEEK ARE GETTING… UNEXPECTEDLY BUTTERED. 🧈🐀 No, we will not be explaining further. Starting this week, random shoppers at The Wandering Possum may discover a little squishy butter tucked into their bag as a surprise lagniappe while supplies last. ✨ And before someone panics in the comments: IT IS NOT REAL BUTTER. It’s the viral squishy butter everyone is obsessed with right now. 😂 Why are we doing this? Because life is weird. Because serotonin comes in butter form. Because the Possum said so. Shop weird. Get buttered. 📍 The Wandering Possum 440 Central Ave, Old Jefferson #TheWanderingPossum #UnexpectedlyButtered #SquishyButter #OldJefferson #ShopLocalNOLA #JeffersonParish #Lagniappe #BoutiqueShopping #FeralRetailEnergy #ShopSmallLouisiana #NewOrleansBoutique #PossumApproved
