We went out for a little late-night shopping at Wal Mart so I could stare at anything but the monitor for awhile (yes, I was that desperate). And they had their big, fluffy towels on mega-sale so I grabbed a few for the guest bath.

But this entry isn't about showing off towels -- rather it's about asking that age-old question -- if washcloths are $4.97, and hand-towels are $4.97, why are towels only $5.97? I guess logically people buy more washcloths and hand-towels so that's probably where they make their $$$, but I wouldn't have given a second thought to paying, say, $7.97 for the big towel. It has four times as much fabric as its little wussy hand-towel counterpart after all.

It...doesn't...make...sense... Oh well. Screw it. These were only $1.50, baby. That's only 12.5¢ per oh-so-tasty-pop!



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Man, I love Bomb pops! I used to get those all the time from the ice cream man when I was little! Want to share?

I miss those! You guys crack me up. It must have been one of those ponder type nights. I sat there wondering why people throw out stale bread, but will eat crutons. Hmph!

I had to giggle when you asked if that was a Pooh picture in the bathroom (read it outloud). ;-) But yes, it sure is! It's a lovely watercolor we got at Disney World!

I used to like Bomb pops ... in fact, they were my favorite. Til I had to use them to numb my injured lip after falling in a skating accident :) Now fudge-sicles are my only "bomb" pop :)

Belive it or not I had a roomate who wanted to put all of my pooh stuff in the bathroom so we could call it the "Pooh Room"

Thanks Robin! After reading this post my wife remembered how much I like Bomb Pops and picked some up for me at the store. You and she both rock!

hey, Robyn, is Todd allowed to USE those towels? Gary always wonders why he can't use the good ones. now there's a good all day conversation.

IMO the hand towles and washcloths should be cheaper, not vice versa :)
