Sluggo: We'd like to share a grilled cheese sandwich, please.
Woman: There's a two-dollar-per-plate sharing charge.
Nancy: Just put it on the napkin and skip the plate.
It all boils down to one thing. In the “good old days” one would go into the local general store and tell the clerk what you wanted. Now, the big box guys tell you what you can buy. If you want something that isn’t a popular seller, you’re just out of luck!! My son once bought a word processer (the step between typewriters and computers) at the local WM. The next year, when it was no longer popular, they were no longer selling the ribbons for it.
