I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing crazy prices. Amazon was selling a half slip...one...for $32. Walmart is selling one package of Murray's sugar free cookies for $27.95!! I triple checked to make sure that wasn't the price for a bundle of 4 packs. But the craziest thing HD...someone was selling my CD on Amazon for just under $1,000. I couldn't believe it...actually found it quite funny even though I'd never see a penny from that sale. I seriously hope no one was foolish enough to purchase it at that price. After a couple of months...it was gone.
 

was staying in a hotel this week in Bath,,,,,,,,,,,had a full English breakfast,,wasent the biggest,so asked the waiter could i have another,,,he said look at the bottom of the menu,,,,,£99 for a second breakfast,and the wait would be 45minutes,,,,i settled for more toast lol,,,oh and there was a £12 surcharge on that

Mine cost $3.00 at a 'dollar store' and it was worth every penny! It gets used inside and out for feathers, fur, and leaf litter.

I honestly believe that these ads count on foreign buyers who don't understand the monetary system in use - on sale, it must be a good deal, eh?

No I don't believe that.. in fact I think foreigners are often more savvy than us when it comes to financial dealings..

The little broom I'm replacing, I bought for very little money so long ago I can't remember, but it was from a small high street hardware store.. now there's hardly any bricks and mortar hardware store left
 
Obviously they’re not going to sell those, unless by accident. There must be some kind of ulterior motive for having a business front. Perhaps to disguise something less than legal.
