[AT] It kind of blows my mind

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

Wife wanted a $130  3ft tall filing/storage cabinet for her crafting area 
from Ikea. They wanted $299 to ship it--over the phone and internet. Said 
all 30 lbs of it had to go truck delivery. And it would be delivered on a 
Saturday. If I were a rich man I would have ordered it and told the truck 
driver he could tote it up the driveway, drive in without messing up my 
grass, or I would have refused delivery. I tried to get it shipped some 
other way--they wouldn't here of it. BUT I could get it delivered to the 
nearest store 3 hours away for FREE.

That a plastic gas can runs about $8 but a replacement spout for one is
over $9.
A new 1-7/8ths trailer coupler is under $10 but a repair kit for one is
over $14...
At Wally World a 12" trailer tire on a 5 hole wheel is about 20% less than
the same tire on a 4 hole wheel.
