EVER HEARD THIS ONE
"A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED"
I'M NOT SURE, BUT THIS MIGHT JUST BE ONE OF THE GREATEST PHRASES OUT THERE!
PROBLEM:
YOU GO TO THE STORE TO BUY A FEW ITEMS. ONE OF THEM IS TOILET PAPER.
YOU FIGURE YOU NEED ABOUT 12 ROLLS, BUT YOU'RE AT A WHOLESALE WAREHOUSE AND THE SMALLEST PACKAGE THEY HAVE IS 72 ROLLS.
WELL, YOU MIGHT COULD USE A FEW MORE THAN 12, BUT 72;NO WAY. YOU'LL NEED MORE IN THE FUTURE, BUT YOU JUST DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH STORAGE SPACE.
SOLUTION:
TAKE ALONG A CALCULATOR SO YOU CAN FIGURE THE INDIVIDUAL COST. THINK OF SOMEONE WHO WOULD BE WILLING SPLIT THE COST WITH YOU, MAYBE TWO PEOPLE. IF THEY AREN'T WITH YOU CALL THEM AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY. IF THE ANSWER IS YES, PAY FOR THE TOILET PAPER AND DIVIDE IT UP WHEN YOU GET HOME. THIS WAY YOU STILL GET YOUR ORIGINAL 12 ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER PLUS 24 MORE. NOT TOO MUCH REALLY, BUT ENOUGH TO DO YOU FOR A WHILE. YOUR FRIEND NOW HAS 36 ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER, NEITHER OF YOU HAD TO PAY FULL COST AND CHANCES ARE BOTH OF YOU SAVED MONEY BY BUYING IN BULK!
