[info]theemmer and I were on the way to Fred Meyer yesterday to pick up a couple of things before we headed to Pugmania. We were waiting in a turn lane and someone was selling flowers in this corner lot (yes, what every mother wants, flowers that smell like exhaust fumes). They had signs going around the corner advertising their deals on flowers. These were the two signs sitting next to each other --

Sign 1: 12 Flowers 9.99

Sign 2: 1 Dozen 10.00

We both sat there in the car for a full minute just staring at the signs and then looked at each other and completely bust out laughing. I thought I must have been having a stroke or something because I knew I had to be reading them wrong. I don't think we stopped laughing for a good 15-20 minutes.

Coming up later... Pics from Pugmania...

So you're saying it's cheaper to buy 12 flowers than a whole dozen?

I don't know if that's incredibly sneaky or... seriously stupid. :P

*waves* Hi, btw!

We were really tempted to stop in and go "now I only want 12 flowers, I don't want a dozen" and see if they got it. I'm leaning toward incredibly stupid.

Hi! :)
