Pickles by Brian Crane for October 11, 2015

Make it a Walmart gift certificate.

Not even a Valpak coupon for free fries with your Jumbo Jack.

You don’t owe anything to someone you don’t know and will never meet…. and sending out invitations to strangers is motivated by pure greed.

Even if you sent $50 you’d probably never see a Thank You card.

Just send a nice card with a nice sentiment that you wrote inside..

No wonder she was convinced by the email from the “prince.”

Usually you just get invited to the shower, same thing.

As I read it, it was an announcement, not an invitation, which means she just got married. At least that’s what an announcement meant many years ago.

Keep the Kohl’s cash for yourself Opal. I recommend a new dress for yourself.

Kohl’s cash????

Monopoly money …is the answer.

We had the best surprise party yesterday, everyone who was invited went there under the impression it was a surprise party for our son’s long time girlfriend, the surprise was forall the guests! It was a wedding! All arranged in secret, what a wonderful day it was!!!

I’ve only been to one wedding which is when I was little. I didn’t even know who’s wedding it was.

like giving airplane miles you’re not planning to use. sounds about right, given the lack of closeness

My revenge on these baby-makin’ grand-grand nieces and nefews is to write a congratulatory letter in Palmer-School Cursive and let THEM figure it out !

Has it worked yet?___________________Nope. they’re dumber’n a bag of doorknobs, but fertile, though. To them, movin’ up to a double-wide from a single-wide is a ‘great social advance’…

SheMc… Kohl’s is a US department store chain, supposedly a discount store, but more expensive than, say, Walmart. .. if you know what THAT is.Sorry, don’t know European stores to compare. The “money” is a coupon, for a discount, or sometimes for a small amount of money you can spend there without buying anything else. . . . if, say, all you need is a pair of socks.

I always send a $50 dollar bill(when I can afford it)I know…I know..bad idea to send cash thru the mail..If they like it…they like it…If they really appreciate it…that I probably will never know.

If you don’t give a gift, you may never see them again for the first time.

Send them a bill for $1 for wasting your time….

Mike G- You gave me the best best laugh I’ve had in quite a while. Many, many thanks!

Haha, but very confusing I think!!!
