A "Holiday Shopping" tip from your friend, the Universe:
During the merriment of your retail adventures, Laurel, should you ever have to ask the clerk, "How much?" always follow their reply with raised eyebrows, a slight gasp, and a disbelieving, "That's all?"
Santa's watching,
The Universe
And when leaving, Laurel, whether or not you make a purchase, don't forget to saunter.
