Not a bad deal at all. Once they do the driveway, you will almost feel like you're living in a new place.

Good deal! Those widowmakers are super dangerous.

Exactly why we asked them to take it down.

It will look different for sure. We need a wood shed. The stupid rack under the deck won't hold all this firewood.

A wood shed is not only great for putting wood in, but you can tell your sons, if they get too snarky with you, you'll take them to the woodshed.

Then we'd better make it tall enough. Michael is 6'2" tall.

So, we're checking out at Walmart and the cash register stops after 150 items. They have to close that out, start over and add the last six to the total. I asked if that was normal though we've never had that happen in the past with a register just because we had more than 150 items. The two checkers standing there said it was always like that (no, it wasn't). My husband chimes up and quips, "Are they made by DOMINION?". I don't think they were amused in the least, LOL, but me?

Wonder if the self check is the same?

Make it only 5'9" tall, and he can smack his head on the way in. That'll teach him.

Dh is over 6' too, which is why my chicken coops are over 7 foot tall. When he built this one here, he swore he'd never smack his head on the top of a coop ever again.

No idea. We avoid self check on principle. They need to hire people. And the stupid machine always messes up for us, sick of having to call over someone to fix it so we just won't do it. We go in the cash lines, too. I'm not being forced to use credit (we have no debit card, only an ATM card, and yes, it truly is just an ATM card) unless I want to do so.

I don't do self-checkout either. I agree, they need to provide more jobs for the community they serve.

We don’t have a choice here. Or if we do the line is a mile long.

They won't take cash at self checkouts anyway and I prefer to use cash, so unless we plan to use a credit card (not generally, unless we order online and pick up in the parking lot), we pretty much have to use regular checkout. I don't like the way they are manipulating us. My cash is still legal tender and we are being penalized for using it.
