  • One more thing....

    Every now and again the overwhelming ocean of paper in which we wade due to computers smacks me in the face.  Used to be purchasing maybe ten items would get one a fairly short receipt.

    Not anymore.  Take a gander:

    That's from Target.  It measures a smidge under 23" from the in-store coupon on to the left to the gift receipt on the right; in between is a section urging me to call in or go online to complete a simple (ha! I'll bet) survey plus the part actually listing the items purchased.

    That's almost TWO feet of receipt paper!  Two feet!  For fewer than a dozen items.

  • No kidding about the receipts!! They just keep getting longer and longer, even for a few items. Blockbuster is the WORST! Man!! 3 feet of paper and you have to hunt down the actual sale on the dang thing!! Oh well...something to do with my spare time, I guess.

    RYN: Kidlet has the camera. She's at a retreat with the youth group at our church, so as soon as she brings it back I'll post the 'ween pics. Didn't get that many...too busy actin like a kid with the kids!!

    Are you doing NaNo this year? You should...lotsa fun!!

  • Duh...just saw the NaNo decal thingy at the top of your page. I'm on there as TimBennett (no space between the names). Of course I'm doing a horror/thriller called The Toymaker.
