All we have left is:
Barnes & Noble 3 @ $10, 2 @ $25, 1 @ $20($20’s say “For my teacher”)
Chevron 2 @ $50, 1 @ $100
THAT’S IT! Did you know there’s a Chevron right across from QFC? And with the price of gas, you could buy all $200 just to get you through the month… Need a good read for the long weekend?
