I Could Be Your Lover, Chained Under the Water

May 05, 2005 00:36

Hallo. Salut. So while some people will have already read this in my away message, it amused me enough to bear retelling.

Just now I went down to Duane Reade, where they are selling 1 litre bottles of Poland Spring for 77 cents each (and only with your dollar rewards card, at that). On the shelf below they have a 3.79 litre container of the same water for 1.69. This just doesn't make any credible sense. If I bought four bottles of the smaller size, it would cost me over 3 dollars for less than half an additional litre of water. I hate to think what morons Duane Reade thinks their customers must be, and worse, what morons they actually are.

PS-My momma taught me to be a smart shopper. Or maybe a cheap one.
PPS-Props to whoever put BruceFudge in the URL. I can only wish.
