Just got a brochure with one of the mails this morning..

you can get an automatic letter opener for $1350!!! That's on special already... why would someone want to pay $1350 for a machine to just slide open the envelope?

It doesn't even unfold the letters for you!

Must be coated in gold.

It's all about volume. If I'm getting 1000 letters a day, I'll be damned if I'm opening them all manually.

I'd hate to see what 1000 letters a day would look like on your desk..

Who would get so many letters? Government departments I suppose..?

This one opens 7,000 letters an hour.

And it's only $495.

I watched a video where natalie tran went to america and she was talking about how everything here is so cheap. She was excited about $1 churros.

Yeah $1 here wouldn't get you much at all here..

Cosmetics and electronics are all at least 50% cheaper overseas..

I guess our strong $$ contributed to that xD Our retailers are screaming coz everyone's buying online wherever possible..

Yeah, my fiance was saying how it is so cheap in the states. But the food is crap even when he thought he went to a decent place.
