    Won’t be many of these places around much longer.

    Then there will only be Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, and Dollar General.

    Good one. By the way, I think the guy’s name behind the counter is Bill.

    I’m old enuff to remember being shocked when the signs on Woolworth’s “five and dimes” changed to “5 cents, 10 cents, 25 cents and up”.

    It won’t be many years before we go the way of the rest of the over-inflating world: we’ll get rid of the penny and maybe the nickel; after some failed attempts (remember Susan B.?) we’ll replace the dollar bill with a coin; $100 bills will become so common they’ll have to reintroduce the $500 and $1000 bills; and we can all say bye-bye to our life savings.

    To see how far it can go, Zimbabwe recently introduced a 50 billion dollar bill.
