Food Item Revolt; Film at 11

Wal-Mart Ends Layaway Service (actual headline in the Washington Post). Apparently Wal-Mart believes the idea of delayed gratification from purchases has become obsolete and they are discontinuing layaway service. Customers can place items (no food items) on layaway until November 19th, but all items must be picked up and paid for in full by December 8th.

Wal-Mart says the service is obsolete, but I think they're covering up a food item revolt. Imagine all those little food items getting together with little demonstration signs (which means the office supply department was in on it, too) to demand equality in the layaway department. Way to go, Food Items...but definitely sad for all those people who were enjoying the layaway service. The full article can be found here. (Note to reader: I have not lost my mind [yet]. Please see entry on the Sonic trip to Williamsburg for more details.)

On a different note, this time next week I will be on a plane bound for Indianapolis!!!
