Not sure where they got all those boxes..?

Kind of like the people that come to your house.."Hey, I have some good meat here at great prices." Where did the meat come from? "Oh, leftovers from a large order." Or, "from a local butcher.." does he have a license to sell meat? do you have a current health card from the hehealth inspection?

I am wondering if some of these people selling things are either just bored or need drugs.

Last week, someone was selling a cracked switch plate with grease smudged on it for a dollar. I guess they did not know that a switch plate new is cheaper than that, without the crack or grease stains.

Times are tough.

Sounds more like it!

Reminds me of my Working Days (Union), once worked with a guy who worked every day like me, overtime more often than not, but he drove a raggedy car & ratty clothes. We were out of town on a job, he is sitting at the table drinking Crown Royal & telling me how he & his wife go to a Church & buy deeply discounted groceries! Like 10 cent boxes of cereal, etc.
Yet he is drinking expensive bourbon.

I mean, come on, 40-60 hours a week at Scale money & you shop at a donated food pantry?
Maybe it's just me, but I would let the less fortunate have the discount, and I would be embarrassed to be seen there!
