I saw the one last night with the 62 bottles of mustard. Unless she’s going to sell it to her friends and neighbors, why bother??? So what if she gets it for basically free?



But wasn’t the mustard 39 cents each? (I can’t believe I’m quoting details from this show). If so, then its a whole other level of craziness. That would be what, $26 for a life time supply of mustard?

I kind of get the thrill of the game to get stuff for free (even if one didn’t use it, you’d think they’d donate it)…but I never understand buying something you’ll never use just because it’s an amazing bargain.

This reminds me a bit of my mother, the bargain hunter. She once bought some shoes that were such a good deal on sale…even though she knew they were not her size. After her amazing bargain purchase, she then went around trying to find someone with the right sized feet who would want these shoes.
