And now, we pause for a transparent attempt to take your money an important message of interest.
I noticed the other day that Shop 'n Save, Foodland, Giant Eagle and even my local grocery store, The House of Rancid Lunchmeat, are all selling reusable grocery bags made out of canvas.
And I said to myself, "How can I cash in on this trend help conserve our country's precious natural resources?"
Introducing Tube City Online's answer to the grocery bag problem. It's also suitable if you need a matched set of "hunky suitcases" for your summer vacation.
I'm making a whopping 98 cents on each one, so please, feel free to buy several. Send 'em to your relatives. Take 'em to Whole Foods for a little reverse snob appeal, and when you see the free-range, organically grown, carbon-neutral, sustainable citrus soft drinks, say, "Hey! Ain't yinz got no Lemon Blennd?!"
