Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for June 02, 2022

WTG BETS!! At least, Tiff won’t get taken advantage of, now.

I wonder if Bets will ask for a percentage of the $95. lol

Called it. ✨

what’re besties for?

Thanks, Bets, for suggesting Tiffany undercut the local storage place. If Tiffany had asked $150/month all her problems would have gone away.

$120 a month? My storage place only charges about $75, and it’s a relatively large unit . . . then again, it used to be even cheaper until some greedy, money-hungry kids bought the entire facility and began raising everyone’s rates.

Go Bets !!!

Bets’ financially-oriented mind comes to the rescue.

Let’s Make A Deal, Starring You Bets Your Life.

Bets can make a dime squeal!

Worst thing she could have done.

Charge a roommate to store stuff over the summer? times have changed

Leave it to Bets to talk Tiff into CHARGING Stef to store her stuff.

Of course Bets is dead right on this one.

This is what? The third or fourth time that Bets has saved Tiff’s bacon?

Bets has got her faults but she’s a pretty good wingman, er, wingwoman.

And if Poppa Farrell bails on that Maui trip, Tiff should take Bets instead.

The storage will include a fully operational privacy hut.

Gotta get this in quick or Any Face will get to call it later.

If Tiff does not need the coin she could say “Actually right now the casa is unavailable for storage but I bet that Bets’ boyfriend could use some pocket change and Gunther has plenty of room…..” Effectively this gets Tiff off the hook (though she still has to deal with Dez’ plants) and this also gets Bets and Stef to visit the gulag and say hi to Gunnie, Les, Punk and perhaps Al and Irma if they are around. Les might try to flirt with Stef which would be interesting to see how she will shoot him down and it would bring Gunther and Les back into the comic as they have been MIA for awhile.

Storing boxes at someone’s house.

Wow, this is one plot line that will keep me on the edge of my seat.

We still need for Tiffany to be an adult with ageny and just say “NO” to Stef.

I was taken to task yesterday for calling Stef a walking STD and other things when I have not treated Kip in the same manner. That’s because it was Stef who brought Kip to the room she shared with Tiffany. It was Stef who used Tiffany’s towel to mop off their sweat and junk, and it was Stef who monopolized the Privacy Hut. Yes, it takes two to tango or whatever Stef and Kip were doing all those times but it has been Stef every step of the way instigating these problems. So I put the blame solely on her.

Cheerleader, check. Math major, NOT!

Um, Tiff, you forgot to say IN ADVANCE. Users gonna use.

Good on you Betts for interceding, and Tiff for expanding on the fee. Betts knew exactly where Steff was going with it. Get paid up front for all months Tiff…in cash!

I think Bets can smell a scam opportunity from two dorms away.

Who’s gonna slip up and tell Stef Tiff isn’t charging Dez for storing her stuff at her mansion?

In this strip we see two business students successfully executing a coordinated hunting maneuver by capturing the money of the weakest member in the room. The wonder of seeing nature at work in its brutality♡! Stef absolutely deserves it and seems happy too in her ignorance. Now I hope that Bets will visit Tiffany over the summer and they will become even better friends. Maybe Bets will end up going to Maui with Tiffany when her father inevitably tells her, even this year, that he will not be able to come with her.

That’s better. Take that cash. She deserves it, what with keeping you awake with her poorly veiled insults and blanket fort shenanigans. But what kind of stuff does Bets want to drop off??

I’m just going to stay out of this just like the previous one. Bets and Steph teaming up on Tiffany is already making me mad. And I know Bets will ask for some of that $95

LOL!!!!!!

I love Luann. but why are her friends so much more interesting? Even Bern and Nil,

Now, Bets can store Gunther over there.

Bets saves the day!

Lessee, it’s June now, so storing Stef’s garbage until September would net Tiff…

Dammit, I STINK at math!!

My, my, my. Let’s see where this is going. I have a sneaky feeling that Bets is sleazing around for some free money. Do nothing, get paid. Won’t be a bit surprised if this is tomorrow’s episode.

Bets will probably round up everyone and their stuff in the whole dorm to store it all at the Farrell estate.

Hmmmm… It’s OK with Tiffany now… But what if her father refuses?

The other thing is this… I would have to know exactly what is in all those boxes… I wouldn’t want to get caught up in anything illegal that would get me nailed by the law.

All I know is when Tiffany finally starts her business, she needs to hire Bets as her CEO

she does realize that Steff up it by five bucks from what Bets said.

So here’s my idea. Stef goes to her summer dance thing. Kip follows and gets a summer job in the area. They decide the privacy hut isn’t enough so they elope and when they come back to Uni they move into married housing and hopefully that will be the end of them.Dez goes to Haiti to help build a school and meets a young doctor volunteering at a clinic and decides to take a year off school and stay there for awhile to help him.Luann must be done with CC, it’s only two years, so she transfers to Uni and moves into one of the rooms and Bernice is able to get on a work study program so she is able to move back into the dorm and share the room with Luann.Now they just need one more new character to room with Bets.

She’s gotta make some dough, somehow.

This is becoming an interesting household dynamic. Clearly, the Evans must feel that it is fertile territory to mine.

Tiff suckered again by Stef and Bets butting in didn’t help. Now, who is moving all that sh_t to Tiff’s?

Whoever predicted Bets would have a plan yesterday, stand up and take a bow.

Bets has a mixed record with Tiff. When they 1st met, she made Tiff money by suggesting she sell her stuff on ebay, but took a cut for her help. Then she really rained on Tiff’s Table For Two business idea that got Tiff an A in class and almost broke her relationship with Gunther.

I have to wonder how this current instance will play out. Remember, Bets already has a BFF in Dez.

Tiff was pretty sharp on the uptake with Bets suggestion today. 8^ )

Nice way to save the day there, Bets. ;-)

Plus, Kip has to do the moving.

Shirtless…

How much will she charge Dez? Or are they just ganging up on Stef?

I like Twelve Badgers in a Suit response, above. Tiff bumped it $5 to cover Bets’ cut!

Wow. Yay, Bets (for once)!

I honestly remember when $120 a month was the rent for my apartment.

Wow… Yay, Bets (for once)! …unless tomorrow we learn her ulterior motive.

Why is Stef thanking her? I would much rather pay the extra $25 a month and know that everything is secure. On the other hand, maybe we get to see what happens when a pipe bursts in the basement of the mansion…right next to Steffi’s boxes LOL!

Birds of a feather flock……….

Ah, that Bets, she IS good at business.

Yeah Bets, thank you for helping me screw over a friend. Bets just above Ann Eifel in popularity

TEAMwork!

Tiff hasn’t been able to accomplish much on her own. But maybe the two can get something going. Is Tiff still working at the Fuse?

I sure like what just happened here! Nice one Bets!

I don’t know……I find this whole arc not interesting at all! Really, Greg is writing about an unhappy, wealthy, and lonely college student who is letting people walk all over her. Yes, Tiffany has been self centered in the past, however, I don’t like the way she’s become a doormat. Just saying,

Gotta hand it to Tiff. She’s pretty quick off the mark.

…with two months paid in advance? ;-D.. gotta love business students. Is hauling included, or an extra charge! Ha!

A couple of days ago someone said this strip is never funny. Today’s strip made me laugh out loud. Bets is sharp, always thinking.

Just stick it all right in the foyer!

I knew there was going to be money involved

I’d like to see Tiffany rent a room to Bets for the summer. Maybe new business ventures? Friendships?

Get the money up front. You know that one is as slippery as you used to be, Tiff.

Bets in the deal you made for Tiff you forgot first and last payments.

Awwww… she wasn’t thinking fast enough. Should have said, “Darn! We have to charge $130 and up. You’d better take that deal.”

new BFF!

Each benefits the other.

Steff wants to know if Tiff will take hoopskirts in lieu of cash.

Bets is Tiffanys wing woman

Good for you Betts and Tiff.

For once this group of roommates is working! Everyone is figuring out how to get along. Now Tiffany needs to charge the plant goddess too.

A business idea!! Will Tiffany get the word out to all the students who need storage! Fill that mansion to the rafters!!

Clever girl.

Ok…now that was slick.

Haha, Very good, Tiff.

Get it in cash upfront, Tiff. PER MONTH.

Thank you Bets.

It would be nice if Tiff offers Bets something, maybe $100 ( a third?). But Bets can’t really ask for compensation since her deal was unsolicited. I hope the 2 go to Maui in the summer and have a blast.

You’re gonna make the old man proud, Tiffany.

She can store the stuff in the room Tiff hasn’t used since she got rid of Annie Awful.

Not sure who’s the Real Loser here. But Stef got rooked, thanks to Bets, who gave Tiff a way out of her dilemma and into some easy spending money….

Money up front first…

AND IT’S BETS WITH THE SAVE!
