    Not to brag, but….I bought a complete sewing machine (still in its box), from Salvation Army for $25.00… At home later, I checked on line, and that model number sells for over $250.00 in the store.

    So for all we know, her mom might be such a shopper too…

    So, stop that(!) already, as my mother would say.

    Look up:

    Xeriscaping is the practice of landscaping with minimal use of water. Homes and businesses in desert climates, such as Las Vegas, use rocks and native vegetation such as cacti in xeriscaping projects.

    Thank you for going into detail about that symbol, since I thought right away about the book series: “A Series of Unfortunate Events” by Lemony Snicket… those who read it know what I mean…so I will not spoil it.

    Now you are talkin’ (!)

    Speaking of voting: I have never missed an election since reaching age of voting. I’ve also been married for over half a century. In all that time my vote has been secret. Although I suspect my husband and kids know seeing as I’ve worked for many candidades, local, state or federal. I’m passionate about local politics, in particular, because this is where one can see how one’s taxes go to work.

    Speaking of McD’s: in the days gone by, the workers used to slice and dice all the vegetables in the morning. My friend’s daughter used to work there during high school, and she had that as her first job in McD’s.

    Years later, before the closed garbage bins, my mother’s husband started a new hobby after he retired. He drove around the town dumpster diving and after a while he started to bring home bags and bags of discarded vegetables: lettuce, onions, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. … He said that they were from McD’s. Those bags of vegetables were good for the compost.

    I’ve suggested that to many people. I equate it to serving on jury duty.

    BTW, this lesson is taught in civics. Even with that so many people boast that they “slept” through those classes, but that lack of knowledge does not stop them from spreading disinformation and misinformation among their friends / family and on line …..

    Yes, that too. After all it is show business… and that reminds me of what Ethel Merman said long time ago in an inteview that her mom always told her that it is a business of shows, just like a store of food, or clothes…

    No, you do not know the cost of those items.

    1. There is economy of scale.

    2. There is cost of goods sold (COGS as it is known in accounting speak).

    3. Is the cinema an art house, or is it a chain. Art house is a single propietorship which doesn’t have the same buying power as a large company that owns thousands of chains)…

    4. If it is a chain, is it owned by the company itself or is it a franchise.

    etc., … etc., …
