    Is Burl getting Scatt Tissue BOGO? I am so glad they don’t recycle.

    I see they are buying Mega Mucil, the store’s house brand laxative in two of the large economy size containers. It’s vital to keep the pork butt moving, and there is much that could be revealed in the realm of their digestive processes, but we will refrain. Dinette Set readers have had their imaginations punished enough. .But I see they still patronize the Crust Foods store. That’s nice. The Crust family date back to the town’s founding fathers who came seeking a land of liberty (and fleeing an angry mob). They always strive to provide Crustwoodians with low, low prices. To do so, they have adopted many ground-breaking grocery marketing practices, such as their discovery that soaking in a 5% benzene solution will remove the NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION stamp from pork butts. It’s also good for removing the warning labeling on their imported bottles of Mr. Bubo bubble bath. But their triumph of efficient food marketing is their dairy program in which milk becomes yogurt, then sour cream and then cottage cheese. Only then can it “expire,” and even then, the saving is passed on to the customer as the 50% discount demonstrates. .I read that some are grumbling about a dearth of “Find-It’s” here. They’re not gone. They’re just now more sophisticated than the rather childishly simple problems of the past. Today is an example of the new “Find-It.” Can you find the clever reference to Burl and Joy’s family name hidden in a horribly color-coordinated accessory?.I knew you could. .

    The bag boy must be new, he’s trying not to laugh. When they leave they’ll talk about how dumb they are. He didn’t think anyone could be so stupid. Welcome to Crustwood bag boy. Hope you earn enough $$ for that high priced college you want to attend. Talk about motivation.

    We can date the age of the strip by the tabloid headlines. How long has it been since Tom jumped on Oprah’s couch?
