Last Ditch Sales

He was a great hulking man who had fleas. Big men attract big fleas so even this man's fleas had fleas and, one suspects, their fleas had fleas also.

This enormous man had a large sign on his front lawn which read "Lots For Sale" and with the real estate market being so tight, many people knocked on his door to inquire about the price.

As the big man opened the door his cloud of fleas would swarm the newcomer and the giant fellow's standard reply was: "The fee for the free fleas is two for the price of one but it's really the flea spray you'll be wanting to buy. It's $12.95 a bottle and, not to worry, we have lots for sale".

Some merchants will do anything for a sale, so beware of flea marketers who give you louse-y deals.
