Apparently the honesty method was being abused, but weren't they using that service as a loss leader to generate traffic !! I approached an employee at Office Max last month and handed him a $5 bill while indicating "10 copies". Dufus was actually going to copy the bill (which is illegal) until I clarified my interest in paying for 10 copies. Forgot about their new system, which generates an invoice from the copy machine after each completed project, which is a good thing since 10 was just an estimate.

Maybe it was an Office Depot. I've had so much kinky, orgiastic sex in so many suburban retail centers that I tend to loose track. I had a threesome at a Staples once as well.

Its such a hot item they put those little 'burma-shave' signs out at the edge of the road to make sure we know we can get windshield wipers and meet all our snacking needs in one convenient location. I love Staples. I call the pen aisle in Staples my happy place. They always have two pound cans of cashews on sale at Advanced Auto Parts.
