    Par for the course. Dollar stores are always running a skeleton crew, pallets blocking fire exits, stores look like they were just ransacked not surprising at all.

    Unfortunately, some people don't even learn when the lesson takes a big chunk out of their wallet.

    Some of the same people can't spell a simple four letter word like 'cord'.
