• Live like a king and pay like a pauper.

    Today Wotnot the Nitwit, Wotnot the Penny-Pincher, the Idiot savant, the Mad Dog but not Englishman, went out in the mid-day sun and learned a new trick in the eternal battle to score the scam, to dive the Dumpster, to Stop-Loss the Inflation Rate.

    Yours frugally, not satisfied with his own attempts to make a comestible Pastrami Sandwich, Earl, decided to Beamer himself over to the Kroger Deli emporium and to pay full price to find out the hidden secrets of the real Pastrami Sandwich even at the
    outrageous price of $7.49 taxable but smackable. They were all lined up in a row like ducks, bulging and beckoning with thin-sliced Pastrami. But some of them with expiration Date 2023-01-16 were marked down 86% to only $0.99 and so your scam-scout
    feasted on a few Pastrami with Swiss on Rye and devised a scheme, a scam, a postprandial predation. He inspected the full-price $7.49 sandwiches and saw their looming expiration date of 2023-01-19 three days from now. Eureka! Just wait until the
    expiration date and buy ultra-cheap sandwiches again.

    It was not the first Eureka moment in the nasty, brutish and short life of our Lifetime Failure Loser Wotnot, who had made a scientific discovery and had tried to tell the cruel and uncaring world about it. "Shaddup!" was the response, "You are leading
    us down a big waste of time in the nonsense of your Rabbit Hole."
