Do You Value Your Time or Your Money? »
The other day as I was in the grocery store, I was struck by the absurdity of just how far one woman was going in her pursuit to get a discount on a package of hot dogs. Now don't get me wrong - I'm all for scoring a discount and all, especially when it involves little to no effort, and even more so when we're talking about lots and lots of money. The greater the reward for the least amount of effort, the more exciting the prospect.
But in this case, there apparently was an ad in the weekly circular that said something to the effect of Beef Franks on Sale. Now if you ask anyone - especially my wife - if I am a stickler for language, I am. When it comes down to what someone says or what someone meant, I will almost always side with what someone says, because after all, that is what they said. I have no way of knowing what they meant. We even have our own little joke about it, saying that I have a condition - which may or may not be true.
