Meeting Miss Price
Feb. 25th, 2004 05:31 pmRan into an old friend at the grocery store today. You all, my friends, may even have made her acquaintance in the past, yourselves. Her name is Miss Price. Whenever I encounter Miss Price, I usually end up saving a great deal of money.
Today I happened across six 1-lb packages of ground round—new, fresh packages, nothing differentiating them from the other packages in the bin—each one erroneously priced at the amazing bargain value of one cent per pound. I hurriedly grabbed every one of them before anyone else could. So, thanks to Miss Price, I got $12 worth of hamburger for six cents.
