I, stupidly, went to the mall today. I drove around the parkling lot, in vain, then drove home and read a book.

Brianna, my business method during the Christmas shopping season is to emphasize that I come to the customer, and they don't have to fight the malls or the ill-trained seasonal help. I just sold some Cutco cutlery to my auto mechanic, whom I have been pursuing as a potential customer for years.

I can still ship in time for Christmas for the next few days and for just after Christmas after Monday morning. Wanna talk?

I used to sell Cutco back in college. Mom bought a set of course -- they're still going strong after 10 years, have never needed sharpening. Well made product, let UG hook you up if you want some nice kitchen stuff.

I try not to give my relatives sharp things. Ever.
