Let’s deal ….
Once in a while I try to get rid of some of my surplus items by posting an ad on our local Craigslist.
Last week it was a couple of belt sanders that I never use and so put them on the market for the good deal price of Fifty Dollars for the pair .
Evidently it was a good deal as someone drove 40 miles to pick them up .
The man got out of the car eyed them up, tried them out and said ….
” Fifty bucks for the pair ?…. yeah, I can do that. ” …. but
“But let me ask you something first…. are you a Trump supporter ? ” he wanted to know .
“Would it make a difference ?” I countered, not really in the mood for politics.
So he opened the back door of his car to display a large load of brand new Trump/ MAGA hats that he proudly proclaimed to be of his own design.
” I was thinking that maybe we could cut a deal” he said.
Looking at this car filled with hats and his hopefull look I agreed ….
” Sure…. we can cut a deal.” I said , ” I’ll take a hat and $ 60.00 “
Sorry …. but I need belt sanders a lot more than I need…. hats
